Basement Update
Today I got the air duct’s framed in. They were a little tricky, because of all the stuff in the way to mount them. To get them level, I had to have them support the duct work. The original support brackets had to be removed. They are very sturdy, and will work well to attach the drywall to. You can see a photo here. For my office, I ran some coxial cable so that I have a cable line in there. I won’t need it for anything now, but it was easier than adding it later. I also uploaded more photos to the basement gallery located here.
I was at Menards picking up supplies today. While I was there I was looking at my lighting options. I think that I’m going to put lights on all the walls in my office and the family room. It will be a lot easier than putting lighting into the suspended ceiling. I found some really nice one’s for $35. I wish I had a photo to post. When I buy them I’ll be sure to take a picture.
So here is all I have left to do before moving into my office:
- Run Cat-5 (network) cable to 1 more wall jack
- Install light switch
- insulate outside wall
- Hang, tape, mud, and paint drywall
I’m going to leave the floor and ceiling unfinished for now.
