I'm still working on that room as we speak...thought that piece was neat so I posted it before someone else thought of it lol
edit: now that you mention it...I looked at it again and it was slightly off center. Trying to correct it now
My version of a bowling alley
Welcome To Death Dealer Lanes
7 lanes of Bowling for your pleasure

This room has 1398 items in it. for a complete pictorial tour of our base, check out my post in This Thread, Page 14

Why, that looks hotter than the Rouge's Bane bowling alley 
I told her in the other thread that I really loved those "bowling balls". Very clever.

great looking lanes!! its great to see a twist on them from mine. i will post the new Bane's Lanes when the wall fix is done.
Well, I couldn't resist the urge to start messing around with things, so I made a room for me to play with. Here is the result.
Most of the room is taken up by someone-in-here's idea for a tree. I haven't used the space beneath it yet (I just wanted to try making a huge tree), but it does have a little garden shelf that's off to the side and hard to see (So, secluded!).
I also made a bit of a mess experimenting with wall vent art and inverted pyramids. The perpendicular vents can only be done from one side, apparently, so that rather cuts down on the possibilities (If you try from the "wrong" side, it won't go down the middle of the light you're floating it off of -- it'll stay on the edges. And you can't do THAT from the "right" side, which is equally too bad). I'll still use 'em for something more impressive later on, thanks to these experiments. The inverted pyramid is probably not going to be built up into something huge, because I can't think of a point.
What I'm most proud of is my suspended head office, next to another set of giant tree's roots. I'm not too sure about how faint the glowing eyes are, but I can probably double up on the hidden torches to fix that. Anyway, the view is nice and it's packed full of stuff. It's cozy, too.
Lastly, I added to the salvage storage unit to make it look more impressive. I'm sure people have already done that exact sort of thing, but I'm very happy with the results.
Now I will actually start *working* on the base. Augh. That room can't stay, but the prospect of recreating the tree in a GOOD spot is a little daunting. I don't mind moving the office, because I had a couple of unnecessary bits I couldn't remove and I don't want the "roots" clipping through. The salvage storage probably won't have to be moved at all -- score!
Oh! Most importantly, I realized that you can stack those lights in my dabblin' room sky-high and then float EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE ROOM off of them AT ANY HEIGHT. ANY DISTANCE -- when I say "float off of them", I mean WAY off of them. One column of those lights negates the need to use and clean up untold billions of desks, so I'm gonna do that from now on (I made the vast majority of what you saw with desks. QQ).
Hope you enjoy!
Neat. Somebody should really make a treehouse with those.

Not to sound like a total base noob but... what base object has pumpkins on it? Referring to Assisace's picture marked "garden shelf".

I bet almost anything that's not a base decorative item, It's a character with the Pumpkin/Hat Costume piece - sitting under all that stuff when they took the pic...
That's a pretty creative idea, idk if I'd have ever thought to do that.

I've considered such. I've been working on 'character housing' for the group, rather wanted something split-level...I may just see if I can use those hand 'tree roots' for supports
I didn't make something as impressive as a treehouse, but I did make two little items I think are cool:

Great Idea with a one way painting specially with everyone having offices, executive areas, and VIP rooms.
ive just recently learned about stacking and such and have gotten into base building and my base now revolves around what i thought the 1st time i saw a quantum stabilizer
"hey that kinda looks like a warp core!"
http://s591.photobucket.com/albums/ss358...25-17-59-21.jpg
and a close up of the plasma tubes
http://s591.photobucket.com/albums/ss358...25-17-59-53.jpg
those tubes tend to kill frame rates but they are sweet!
its kind of hard to see but the particles that escape the glass "invisibility field" make a really cool effect looks like they are floating up inside the tube
oh and im kind of new to photobucket if there is a better way to post the pics let me know 
@Dremster Wrecking Crew / Guardian
It's fine Dremster, and neat look btw. With that many of the stabilizers, it must be loud in there!

You need help, seriously
Neat! ...that shot gives me vertigo, though. (Not a critique, just an observation). I know it's centred, but becos of the angle it looks off-kilter. Is there more to the room?
