I have just completed my new trophy room. It used to be the shop, so part of the package was creating a new shop before I could build on the trophy room. But that's another story...
This is a multi function space where one can read, listen to music, reload, write, lift a few weights and do small projects. I have done all the work, including building the reloading bench out of a few old timbers I re-milled. I've included various artifacts, art and mementos from my past. The water colours were done by my brother Jene.
I've dedicated a corner to my life in the north. I used to trap and have displayed some old traps and furs. The furs were harvested by me locally, with the exception of the martins. The saddle belonged to a brother who tragically died young. He used to team rope. The Stetson was Dad's.

Awesome! Well done! Thanks for sharing!
 
I should have included a photo of the reloading supplies. Obviously I need more room. Some stuff in the tool box but my next build is a cabinet that will fill the space on the left.

Very nice!
 
That re-purposed space has MAN CAVE written all over it. Well done and Congrats!
 
So, not more than an hour after I post this, I get a call from the tanners, that last springs bear hide is ready... I didn't bother with a head mount. If it was over 6' then I would consider it, and if over 6.5' squared it would be a no brainer. This bear was around 5.5' squared when green. Nice and thick though.

Yeah my wife really encouraged this. But she may have been tired of our bedroom packed with trophies....

Living life like a lion for 1 day is better than living life like a jackal for 100 years.
