[Warning and sorry in advance for the wall of text. I wanted to address all the topics that were combined into this thread.]
My cam furniture and setup has changed a few times since the last time I posted in here. I think I have a problem with having the same setup for too long. For a while I was camming from my bed then I got bored and did a desk setup, got bored again and did a floor setup, then a couch setup, then a sofa chair setup and now I'm back to a bed setup. I'm never satisfied I guess.
For the longest time I cammed out of my bedroom but longed to have a separate room just for camming. I finally moved into a few apartments where I was able to have a room just for camming but then my earnings shifted so I had to downsize and get roommates. Now I'm back to camming from my bedroom. I'm working on getting my earnings back to where they were as well as make more because although my living situation is fine now I want a camroom again dammit.
I love seeing the different room setups and ideas. I tend to peak into rooms on all the major camsites to see what type of decor/setup models have. I also love watching Youtube apartment/house, office and studio tours. I see quite a few beauty guru rooms and camrooms with string lights and I love the look...especially when its paired with curtains on the wall. I think that will be the next look I do for my cam space.
I just recently got done looking at pictures of Khloe and Kourtney's home on
Architectural Digest. When I saw these rooms I instantly thought "Omg that would be the dopest camroom/place to cam.". I absolutely love the look of these rooms.

Was watching Jared Polin aka FroknowsPhoto studio setup the other day. I think he has a loft apartment and uses it as his studio and OMG it made want a loft so bad.
My ultimate goal is get a place that has a huge open space like a finished basement or attic. I was even thinking about renting an artist loft or buying a house that has a pool house or has enough land to be able to build a pool house type of add-on. I would make the space sound proof and turn it into a full fledged photography, videography and live broadcasting studio. Since I like to keep changing my setup I think it would be great to have a few different stations. So separate from my production studio I'd have different cam stations setup i.e. desk, bed, living room and a floor lounge so that I can have the freedom to cam in whatever setting that I feel like that day. That is my ultimate dream setup and future goal.
Anyways below was my setup before I downsized. Its excessive af, something got trigger once I started learning about tech shit. Like the more I learned the more interested I got in different tech stuff which caused me to upgrade one thing after the other. I put most of the stuff in storage at my moms when I had to downsize. Tell me why I went over to her house a few months ago and found that she and my niece low-key stole 2 of monitors

. I was talking to her in her room and turned around and saw my monitor. I was like "Wait a minute is that my monitor?"...she was like "You weren't supposed to notice that. You weren't even using it.". I just shook my head. Then she had the nerve to ask me to help her set it up so that she could watch her shows. I couldn't help but lmao. Its ok though because I will be snatching both back when I get my $$ back up and have space to put them.

Anywho in the corner I had my computers, portable hard-drive, usb dock and ethernet switch. Under the shelf (which is shown in the 2nd pic) I had a hd-sdi splitter (the black thing) so that I could split the 3 camera's I had setup (I had the 3rd one setup on the floor) to 2 computers instead of having to use separate webcams for each computer. The orange thing is a hd-sdi switcher which I remotely used to switch camera's/camera angles so that I didn't have to physically do so via Manycam. Seating wise I switched between using a desk chair, the
DHP Chelsea Convertible Chair and Hadfield Storage Ottoman. I put wheels on the ottoman so that I could move it easily. I wanted to put wheels on the convertible chair as well but I dunna how to weld nor do I have a blow torch.
Since my room is small and I'm working and sleeping in the same room I decided to buy the table and chair below so that I could have a decent amount of space.

Buchannan Microfiber Chair

Below is my current setup. I have my computer and a pro light in the corner out of view of the camera. I have a 15ft hdmi cable and extension cord for the tv, 10ft data sync/mini b cable for the mic and 10ft bnc cord for the security camera so that I can roll my desk to where ever I want it. I switch between working in the Buchannan and my bed.
I bought the Buchannan from Walmart. I wish the back was a little higher but all and all its pretty dam comfortable. All three chairs I posted are easy to move and clean. They're also great to do booty shaking on. I got the Hadfield Ottoman from Walmart but its no longer available. Its available
here at Overstock but its out of stock (lol at the irony). The closest one I found was the
Dorel Living Rectangle Storage Ottoman on Amazon.
Camming slowing down for me meant that I had to put in more hours camming and doing computer work which meant sitting for long hours. None of the chairs I had were really practical for long hours of work. My desk chair didn't give enough lower back support. The DHP Chelsea and Hadfield are comfortable but there's no back support with an ottoman and I got tired of getting my legs/skin stuck to the faux leather of both chairs. I looked at office chairs but didn't like any of them. I was cam-watching one day, saw a model sitting in a sofa chair and the light bulb went on in my head. I didn't want to give up the mobility of an office chair so I bought wheels from Home Depot and screwed them on the Buchannan. Now I can easily roll it around my room like an office chair. I put wheels on everything I can, would even put them on my bed if I could lol.
