The
room that W/we used to call the "TD" for Temporary Dungeon is in fact
a guest room. Because W/we have the need for a guest room and the fact that
the room was not adapted for O/our play, W/we decided to leave it as a guest
room, it's first use.
Because W/we have already done some successful
modifications to the room, W/we feel these features are important for the
design of O/our future dungeon.
Let Me introduce Y/you to the room W/we
call:
The "TD"
Same
size as the future dungeon (9 feet 4 inches by 9 feet) It looks a lot like
the room where the future dungeon will be. It's first function being a guest
room, with it's two closets, it will become a very good place to store winter
stuff (coats and stuff) and one of the closets will become the linen closet.
One of the problems of this room, was the
fact that there is no door that W/we could lock. The opening of the door frame
being not a regular size, it would have meant for U/us, if W/we wanted to
install a door, major modifications would have had to be done to the door
frame. And. because W/we want to use the room for storage purposes due to
its two closets, it would have been awkward to go in the dungeon, to get linen.
But, this room, the TD as W/we call it,
served it's function quite nicely until now. There was some modification made
to this room for O/our play.
A
removable hook was installed. But, because of real life problems, the hook
was actually never removed from the ceiling, even if W/we could easily remove
it from there. Instead, when W/we had vanilla visitor, W/we simply told them,
and you will recognize the lie, that "It was to suspend a very big plant".......yes,
a type of plant known as "A sub!" :)
By the way, on the pictures, the room looks
bigger than it really is, thanks to the use of a wide eye lens (this is why
the black circle on the pic)....don't get your scale wrong folks!
Another
easy modification W/we did on the wall of the TD was the installation of six
rings attached to the studs. Two near the floor, two near the ceiling and
two mid way between the ceiling and the floor. In the pic, they are not easy
to see. Very efficient to immobilize a sub.
And
finally, W/we used one of the closets as a storage space for O/our toys. On
the inner wall of the closet, W/we attached some hooks to suspend O/our toys.
One of the problems is lack of space (glad to tell Y/you that W/we have too
many toys now...)
W/we had a lot of fun in this wonderful
room but soon it will be dismantled for the profit of the new dungeon and
returned to its first use as the guest room.
