I did a thing...

Doesn't fit in the other categories? Maybe just want to post up some humor or random happening? This is the place for it.

I did a thing...

Post by ProCroation » Sun Aug 27, 2017 9:43 pm

I finished a room in the basement of the new house as a recording studio. I did it all myself and have no experience with any of this crap. The walls were concrete and drywall before I started. Now they're wood panel and acoustic foam. I'm excited and exhausted.

How big is the room? I need to get some acoustic tile (one of the many things on my list) and do some of the walls in my music room.

Looks great!

Room is 10.25 foot long, 5.3 foot wide and 8 foot high. For 96 pieces of acoustic foam you see I spent $144. Would have been cheaper if I went with all charcoal and none of the burgundy.

All of the bracing that you see holding the panels to the wall are because I was only using woodpanel glue at the time. Like I said, I had never done anything like this before so I never thought of finishing nails in the grooves. I felt stupid when I discovered I could use them on the drywall sides at least. Would have saved me hours upon hours of waiting for the glue to dry because I didn't have enough stuff to brace more than one panel at a time. Lol

That is right about what I've been seeing it for. Did you find it locally or order online?
