After taking a few months off we’ve finished more of the theatre room. This weekend we wrapped up painting the ceiling slats, window frame, and installed a set of blinds.

We’ll be installing the flooring later this week (which means I have to finish putting the cement sealer on the floor… I’m not looking forward to that)

For anyone concerned with the acoustic problems a wood floor may cause, there will be a sound absorbing layer underneath the wood and we plan to add an area rug for the middle of the room that should soak up sound at the proper bounce angles.

Wall paint complete!

We also built a cabinet (from scratch) to house all of the electronics. We still need to fill in some gaps, sand, router the edges, and paint but it’s turning out very nice.

We also cleaned up the speaker wiring and added our face plates

We’ve finally finished mudding and sanding!

We also managed to order and paint all of the face plates for outlets and speaker boxes.

Now it’s time to put some paint on the walls.

Another productive week spent working on the theatre room. This week we finished pulling the speaker and video cabling and managed to get all of the drywall up. Now it looks more like a room!

We had a productive weekend in the theatre room. All of the electrical (lights and outlets), PVC pipe for wires, and the last of the framing (around the window) is complete.

All of our wires should be arriving later today so we can glue the PVC and string the wires through later tonight.

We’re hoping to start dry walling mid week if the budget can hold up to it.
