Appreciate the kind words! It was fun to build, hard to sell it though but we used it lots while we lived there! In the process of building the next one, have more square footage to work with this time so should be pretty awesome when it’s done , however I set the bar pretty high lol
Really like the overall 'clean and minimal' look you guys have created here. I also like the fact that you've got a mix of your passions on display, hockey and SpaceX, displayed around the room in such a tasteful manner. A gorgeous look all around.
I like the little niche in the wall for the drink, remote and plug in. It’s the little things that make a difference. I _really_ like the Molson Ex light.
Appreciate it man ! New basement is coming along but running into a ton of plumbing issues, definitely has more potential once we pass these hurdles, will need to do another video of it soon 👍
@@TopCheeseCustoms it gives it the feel of being at an actual bar. You buy them in different lengths and elbows but the top part you have to put some polyurethane on it because at some point someone will spill a beer on it and you want to keep it clean and smooth
Thanks man, I framed the wall like I would frame a window, then built boxes to fit in the opening , and just cover the boxes with stone or a nicer material to finish it off. Building two of them at the new house, maybe I’ll do a video on the process, cheers
Very nice and finally someone that doesn't have a million autos from babe ruth and every hockey superstar lol. All I want to know is what dumpster are all the leafs stuff in??? Loved the leafs for over 30 years and talk about a disappointment and matthews jersey is now in the bathroom used as toilet paper.
Actually where I got the idea you’ll probably laugh….I was watching Rocky 5 I thought it was, anyways there was a scene where Rocky was talking to his son in the kids bedroom and he had a fish tank built above his bed ..I thought wow that’s pretty cool , plus I had a huge tank in my room growing up. So I thought why not build one in my reckroom..! It’s not my idea, it’s just a cool idea I copied from whoever thought of it!
Appreciate the kind words! Certainly added value to the home , I’d say it probably cost roughly $30,000 CDN all said and done, but we did 95% of the work ourselves. I’m keeping a better tally of costs on the new basement, stay tuned!
Haha yea we moved, lived there for 6 years, basement basically finished for probably 2 of them so we got to enjoy it. Onto a bigger and *hopefully* better mancave now, I share my plans for it in the more recent video, cheers mate!
Thanks man! Had no room left in that basement but have recently moved to a new place (the newer video) with a bigger basement, thinking of building a table from scratch 🤙
Ran out of stuff to do, got bored 😂 enjoyed it for a couple years (made the video a little late) but really the house was too small for us long term so we are working on a bigger and (hopefully) better one now
@@TopCheeseCustoms the guys "success" comes from he's dads fucked up diamond mine, and scaming the government for grant money, Oo and he's also a big fan of having a ton of kids and not being in there life
The plastic sweater hangers are a nice touch...Love it!
Hahaha pretty sleazy agreed , I’ve come up with a better idea for the current man cave 😉
The most Canadian video on youtube lol. Awesome
😂😂😂
Might be the best man cave I’ve ever seen!
Cheers Doug! It was a lot of work but turned out better then I imagined!
Dude I would kill for this. Absolutely amazing. There's nothing I don't like well done 👏

Excellent work, clean, bright, and efficient.
Cheers ranger, onto the next one now!

Some call it peak laziness, others call it brilliant , I know what camp we are in haha thx for the kind words
Beautifully done! Thanks for sharing!
Super cool. At 11:18 I don’t know why I at first thought that was Senator Palpatine and Anakin Skywalker…. 😂😂😂😂😂
Reeealy nice! Amazing space you made there!
Thank you! It was a fun build, onto the next one now !
Simply beautiful
Much appreciated 🙏
Very cool ! ......My compliments.
I really like what you did with the bar. Very clean. Nice work.
Great video, shows a lot of your skills. To bad you’re moving, hopefully the new place will be even better. Good luck to you and yours.
Appreciate it man ! New basement is coming along but running into a ton of plumbing issues, definitely has more potential once we pass these hurdles, will need to do another video of it soon 👍
just straight gorgeous. Had to watch this vid 3x!
Thx man! Was a fun build, hopefully the new cave turns out as good !
So I am assuming you like hockey.?! 🤣😂😅
Great space... Love it.
Very nice!!! Gave me some ideas as I am in the middle of building my bar/game room.
Awesome bring those ideas to life with your own twist , enjoy the build !
I absolutely cracked at "I did the plumming myself and I'm an electrician" 😀
Looks incredible. Makes me think i need to man up and learn how to use some power tools. Good luck to the Leafs this year.
Cheers man, let the creativity loose!
It was great how he showed us the bathroom for 20 minutes!! 😂
I spend a lot of time in there bud, glad to bring you along
😂😅
Fantastic bar and well done.
You have your own cave must be great cuz it's absolutely
Looks awesome. I would of went with a Chicago bar rail personally
Cheers. Will look into it for the next one thanks for the idea 👍

AWESOME! Especially love the jersey cabinets
Love the commentary haha good stuff
My kind of guy. Thanks.
Cheers brother 👊
Awesome! Great job
Looks good bro, clean work
Cheers man 🤙
nice setup
The whole place looks awesome. Great work! And you’re moving!! Bummer
Thanks man! Taking what I learned and building out a new one with more square footage stay tuned 🤙
Looking forward to it! Thanks
Thanks for giving the tour ! Now subscribed
The Lablatt splat 😂
😜
Great job
🙏
In the UK we call that a whole house!!
We spent alot of time down there, probably should have just rented out the upstairs to be honest haha
Looks good
The jersey cabinets are unreal. They look fantastic. Any tips or ideas on how to make them?
Thanks man, I framed the wall like I would frame a window, then built boxes to fit in the opening , and just cover the boxes with stone or a nicer material to finish it off. Building two of them at the new house, maybe I’ll do a video on the process, cheers
Looks Great! Labbatt splats LOL we've all been there lol
Thanks! You live and learn 😂
Very nice and finally someone that doesn't have a million autos from babe ruth and every hockey superstar lol. All I want to know is what dumpster are all the leafs stuff in??? Loved the leafs for over 30 years and talk about a disappointment and matthews jersey is now in the bathroom used as toilet paper.
Haha all for sale, for a good discount. You know anyone interested?? 😂
@@TopCheeseCustoms me about a month ago lol. I dont know if I can keep going as a leafs fan anymore
Looks better than "pretty good," looks great. From one NHL fan to another. I saw a Falcon 9 launch from Cape Canaveral a couple weeks ago.
Thanks man that’s awesome, hope to see a launch in person one day!
i did the plumbing and im an electrician so.....😂😂😂😂 - great job both of you
Haha Appreciate it sir 👊
looks awesome man
The KOHO hockey stick is made in Finland 👍🏻👍🏻
I used to love the KOHO’s back when I played 👌
This looks awesome, great job
Fantastic work on you Basement, I'm in the process of doing mine and got some pretty good Ideas, thanks for sharing, Cheers!
Thanks and best of luck with yours, Would love to see the final product !
Was wondering about all the Space X pics and models?? I made the Hydraulic clamping cylinders that hold the rocket on power up
The models I had a friend make with a 3D printer, he did an amazing job and the pictures are actually just posters that I made frames for
The only negative aspect of living in Florida… No Basements! 😂 Sharp looking cave bro!!!
I might trade ya for sunshine and palm trees 😎
@@TopCheeseCustoms Yeah truth be told I’ll take the sunshine and palm trees!!!
Very nice…did ya ever think about putting in a fish tank in the wall ? It’s pretty cool…kids seem to like it!
Never thought of it but it’s a great idea!

Go leafs. Good job
Much appreciated !
Fantastic job, very beautiful. One hell of a man cave!
Thanks! It was hard to sell, but working on a bigger one with more potential now!
@@TopCheeseCustoms can't wait to see that!
Nice.
sweet bar sorry about being a leafs fan but at least the oilers are on and you don't actually drink labatt blue Kokanee FTW lol cool place man
Haha yea it’s painful 😂 would be nice seeing the cup north of the border either way ! Agreed with Kokanee, cheers !
@@TopCheeseCustoms we usually win just in American jerseys lol
Facts right here ^^^
Love this. I would never move lol. Did it increase the home value? How much did it cost in total? Is this house for sale lol
Appreciate the kind words! Certainly added value to the home , I’d say it probably cost roughly $30,000 CDN all said and done, but we did 95% of the work ourselves. I’m keeping a better tally of costs on the new basement, stay tuned!
Your boy Elon was smoking a joint. The picture is from an episode of Joe Rogan.
Haha I know, classic moment
nice
Holy moly what a goalie 😂
😜
Why are you moving? This place seems perfect !
Was a townhouse, got a little small for us, moving on to a bigger place. The new Mancave will be 2x the size and *hopefully* 2x better haha
❤ my place... 🍻
Nice
Did you say you were moving??? Did I hear that right. How long have you had this man cave?
Haha yea we moved, lived there for 6 years, basement basically finished for probably 2 of them so we got to enjoy it. Onto a bigger and *hopefully* better mancave now, I share my plans for it in the more recent video, cheers mate!
Beauty Eh!!!....A little Trailer Park Boys, SCTV, Triumph, and Rush memorabilia would make it 200% Canadian. Very nice though!!!
Haha I’ll keep Collecting, ran out of wall space maybe I’ll surprise ya on the current basement I’m working on 😉
This give me hope that I can install pendant lights despite my low ceiling. Do you mind sharing the height from the floor to the bottom of the lights?
We recently moved but I want to say about 24-28” from the ceiling to bottom of fixture
Looks like 72 3/4" from the floor.
Can you tell me how wide the counter is below your bartop?
I have since moved but I would say it was roughly 18-20 inches
Ya Dig
Poker chips but no table?? Looks great though!
Thanks man! Had no room left in that basement but have recently moved to a new place (the newer video) with a bigger basement, thinking of building a table from scratch 🤙
Are both tvs programmed to same remote ?
Two separate remotes, hdmi connecting both TVs, so I guess technically one remote if you want to watch the same thing on both haha
Beautiful 😍 but once you realize that the earth is flat and space is fake you will probably change a few things.
One of them flat earthers huh? Either way we will still share it Haha cheers 👍
Where's the beer tapper ???
I bitched out 😂
Top Cheese Customs: If you're moving in 3 weeks why did you bother doing all that work?
Ran out of stuff to do, got bored 😂 enjoyed it for a couple years (made the video a little late) but really the house was too small for us long term so we are working on a bigger and (hopefully) better one now
CANADIAN BEN AFFLECK'S CAVE...GOOD TIMES

Blest by the Gretz'!
I thought Canadians had a flag like we do in the USA bur I guess they have a flage. weird
