Reel deep thoughts...
I’ve not been posting as much recently, though I’ve been lurking...lots of posts and threads with questions and issues I’d like to chime and help with but I’ve got a lot going on, so my apologies for not being much of a help lately.
My day job has been very time consuming lately, plus we’ve got a baby on the way and have a lot to do to prepare the household...in a lot of ways we’ve been so busy since we moved here a couple years ago, so converting one of the three bedrooms to a nursery involves several layers of work. But relative to this forum one of those layers that is getting touched on is insulating, heating and finishing our detached 24 x 24 garage to repurpose it from chaotic storage to a rec room for a 100-year-old pool table (that’s been in my family since my Dad was a young boy), exercise equipment, and music/recording instruments and equipment. This will clear out the bedroom in the house that’s currently housing the Tascam M-__ and one of my drum kits, along with some equipment racks, etc...and unite that all with Ampex MM-1000 among other stuff. Anyway...nothing like killing about five birds with one stone.
The new windows are installed in the garage, and we’re almost done with the tear-out of all the janky built-in shelves and work benches...next I need to improve the roof and eave venting, do some electrical work, then we’ll have somebody come in to insulate, put up the sheetrock, and seal and finish the concrete floor.
This picture is like a search-and-find; if you look hard you can see the Ampex MM-1000 and some Tascam 58s:
