So yeh... moving the drywall and flooring down to the basement was as heavy and time consuming as we thought... so after a few hours of heavy lifting we managed to get the stuff down
Its been a while since the last post. We had a month long hiatus because we were in Kenya/England on vacation. Its now June, the weather is nicer and we have less reason to be couped up in the basement labouring away. But nonetheless, the project must go on.
So a quick update on where we are:
A few loose ends to fix on the framing
Wiring is almost done, again a few small things to finish off
Speaker wire runs to bar and rest of basement - complete
Home Theater wired for 5.1, may expand to 7.1
Video cable (HDMI/DVI + Component Video) for the projector still needs to be purchased
Pot light wire runs are complete to switches
All electrical outlets are complete
Electrical for the bar area needs to be modified
Coax to second floor will be run soon
Ethernet runs to second floor will be run soon
Wall sconces have been pre-wired and mounted to the walls in the home theatre
3 Doors have been installed (2 storage + 1 Bathroom)
Plumbing for wet bar has been roughed in
After making some calculations and finally making a decision on the type of subfloor and ceiling we wanted to do, we ordered the next phase of goodies to install.
An early sat morning delivery by home depot this time. Still have some back breaking work to get all this down to the basement. Someones gonna sleep well tonight...
