Whoever 'disliked' the video is some straight haters... breh out here made his own cigar lounge with his bare hands... hats off to you my guy... just pure awesomness.

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks my dude! I take the bad with the good but comments like this make my day!👊

[@simonschmid1936]

A great cigar lounge Sir. I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and I am envious. Cheers

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks man! It was worth every penny👍

[@chadashton7029]

Such a great cozy space. I'd love to have a spot like that at my house. Been throwing around the idea of a cigar shed since I don't have a place in my house for something like this.

[@TheHodge101]

Do it! Its been so nice the last few years. I did have to go on a diet because i spent so much time relaxing in there but worth it all around.

[@giantpumpkinsNZ]

Great video, love the new space you have created, very cool and the color you picked is great. Well done on that build.

[@thomasrobb3519]

Great use of the space - I like how you personalized it - Well done!

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks Man, I'm lovin it!

Fantastic work on the cave. Great vision as always on this project. Size constraint rectified with oversized ventalation unit to remove the smoke imediatley. Enjoy the comfort of the cave and the quite times to focus on new projects.

[@TheHodge101]

Nice turn out.

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks man👊

[@KennedyFinance]

Nice job man. Wish I had your skills.

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks man! Only took me a few years of screwing things up to get decent at remodels🤣

[@derekdavidson6738]

Great video, I'm about to start something similar. I'm curious about those chairs. How are they holding up? The price seems too good to be true. I haven't found much out there that wasn't a few hundred each.

[@TheHodge101]

The wood on the top of the arm rests has broken out a little bit. Seems like it is 1/4 in balsa but the main arm frames and covering are holding up. I havent used the heaters in them but overall I'm pretty impressed. Ive used them almost everyday for 3 years.

[@camilopulgarin]

Good work buddy 🫡

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks man!👍

[@natedogg5312]

Well done brother! I’m in the middle of building my own cigar lounge. I know you’ve answered this prior but now that you’ve had room for a while, what are your thoughts on sound volume of exhaust system. And do you find that system pulls heat out of your lounge. Cheers.

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks man! My fan has 8 power levels and since my room is so small i have been able to run it on level 2. I almost dont hear it it all. At level 4 it starts to be noticable against the TV sound. As for the heat, my basement isnt heated so i run a small 600w radiant space heater during the winter(only while im in the lounge) and i do notice the temp drop a little when i run the fan. The heater keeps up tho.

[@vtxcnme9506]

I've been looking at that fan for my cigar room.... at full speed, how loud it is behind the wall?

[@TheHodge101]

Sorry for the late response man. It is not very loud below the fourth setting but above that it starts affect the conversation in the room. If its just me in there i can run it on 3 and get all the smoke out.

[@mikeytrill1513]

If the world had more people like you this place called earth would be great I can tell your a laid back guy who just wants to live life peacefully congrats to you though my brother and happy smoking- ps you should add a nice sound system in there

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks my dude! 🙏 I've been thinking the same thing about the sound system. Thats the next thing i need in here.👊

[@mikeytrill1513]

Is the man cave serving you any justice ?

[@TheHodge101]

Man its great. Almost too good cause i havent been getting anything else done!

[@epappas1035]

Amazing

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks!

[@Noname-qn2lr]

I am jealous ...... congrats

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks! Its definitely been nice on those cold days.

[@theendurodude]

I’m looking at getting the 8” version of that fan for my cigar lounge. Do you have any complaints after using it for a bit?

[@TheHodge101]

It will be a year this week since i installed it and its been great. I run it on setting 2 or 3 when its just me smoking and its plenty.👍

[@Stutlelz]

I like your setup. I have been thinking of converting an outdoor shed to a man cave lounge. How did you duct the inline fan into the room? Did you use a traditional bathroom exhaust vent cover or a other type of vent? I assume the link for the vent cover was to outlet the exhaust duct to the outside. Thanks for the information.

[@TheHodge101]

My outlet is up high on the wall. I used Lowes item number 52330. Its a rectangle to round transition. Then covered it with item 125256 which is a 6x14 grille. Its not an exact fit but it worked and looks nice.

[@Stutlelz]

Thanks for the reply. One more question, how did you supply power to the fan? Looks like it comes with a standard plug that connect to the switch and would plug into the standard outlet but how would that work if the unit is hidden in a ceiling and the switch is in the wall. Did you just cut the plug connections off the provided cable and hard wired to power in the wall?

[@TheHodge101]

I wired a receptical in next to the fan to utilize the plug. I am also planning on putting an access door in eventually for fan maintenance. This fan came with a wired controller that i mounted in a standard wall box. It was a pain but worth it.

[@prefonjames]

Nice work on the man cave! Love what you have done. Would like to know what cigar you’re smoking.

[@TheHodge101]

Thanks buddy! I must have edited out that part...it is the Flor De Las Antillas by My Father Cigar Co. One of my favorites!👍

[@prefonjames]

The Hodge101 I love those cigars! Thanks for getting back to me. My respect has increased even more! 😎

[@TheHodge101]

Sure thing man! Thanks for the good words👊

[@Weezie556]

I'm looking to doing something very similar in size, what was your cost for this setup?

[@TheHodge101]

Rough numbers doing all the work myself the construction cost about $1,800. The furnishings, including the fridge, totalled about $600.
