Theater Lighting Done

Done, bigger job than I expected.  Mainly due to the amount of time required to mount everything, measure and mark, remove, cut, paint, test fit, refit, etc...

Turned out really well.  Up close you can see the flaws, but that's the reason the backing paint is a dark color, as you never see it unless you look closely.

I'm very happy that the design made a difficult, ugly spot to work with, turn into an asset.  Recessing the lighting behind the wood makes it difficult to repair, if a light goes out, so good thing it's LED.  In the main area, and the other rooms I'll probably use a router to recess track lighting into the wood, put the slats over that.  Should make it easier to make, and a little more flexible.  Also it will reduce the depth needed, as I have very little vertical space to work with in the main area.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.

Basement Bathroom Progress

 Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area.  The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped.  This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.
