Drywall Going Up

Almost 100% of the drywall is up in the "Listening Room".  It will be setup as a stereo room, complete with isolated circuit with hospital grade outlet. To be honest, I don't really need it, but it makes for an attractive space which could enhance resale value.


The back wall will be a rock veneer, so it won't get drywall, instead it will get backer board, but I won't put that up till the mudding is done.  Have about 2 minor pieces left to finish up this room.

Also, since this includes drywall work in the basement bedroom, I needed to clean up the spare room and turn it into temporary storage so I have a place to keep all the stuff that will go into these rooms.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage.  It works, and is flexible, but not fancy.  Been on the lookout for something better.  Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement.  I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

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.

Kitchen Progress

 Backsplash tile almost done, just need to install the outlets and faceplates.
