'Being a fan of Star Trek has given me a life', claims 69-year-old Steve Doman.
The devoted trekkie has spent 14 years transforming his remote Colorado cabin into a Star Trek shrine complete with Klingon and Federation-themed rooms.
Steve has spent a staggering $30,000 on the renovation project - which started as a winter hobby - and says there is still plenty of work to do.

$30,000 is a "staggering" amount of money for a renovation project? 30k is a kitchen and a small bathroom, if you don't go overboard. Honestly, for only 30k, he did a pretty good job. And since he is clearly going to be alone for a very long time, it is nice that he has a place that means so much to him.

**The dedicated trekkie admitted: ‘My friends and family think there’s something wrong with me!’**
There may very well be.
But people who aren’t Trekkies have things wrong with them as well.

Good that he built these things himself and didn’t just spend the money having them made.
