Honestly, I kinda forgot about it. There are some blocks on it that are pretty long. I'm not sure I can allow or afford that much invasion of my personal space.

Sorta kinda finished one side of the front wall tonight. I just lack bracing and making the cleats, which is a fairly quick task (knock on wood). Here's the cabinet after I put the burlap & plastic in. And here it is with 6" of treatment and another layer of plastic. I'm not particularly...

I mucho prefer vinyl with everything. I wish they would press vinyl on more artists. I would buy more. I would have pressed my band's album on vinyl if it wasn't so damn expensive.

This project is taking me way longer than I had anticipated. I hope I'm done soon. EDIT: One thing I'm going to likely do down the road (next month or so maybe) is to take the closet door off and store it in the attic or something. Then I'll make a new door that has a wood frame so it can be...

The front wall is turning into a much larger task than I had anticipated. And it's all because of that damn LCD mount and having to build around it (the way I want to). I didn't add any support for the insulation...it's my hope (sanity) that the burlap and plastic will be support enough for...

HOLY F$%KING BAT $HIT!!! That is all. Ugh.

I hope you make it modular. Depending what it's made out of, that thing is gonna be heavy as f&*k.

I made all the cuts, pocket holes, and most of the sanding for the front wall assembly yesterday. Now to stain it, let it dry, and start assembly. I may go ahead and get the material for the back wall so I can cut and stain it as well. That way both can be drying and I'm not wasting daylight...

Started on the design on my front wall treatment. Below is the frame for it. The actual treatment itself will cover a bit of the LCD mount (only the 2x4's are shown) so you won't actually see any of the 2x4's at all. I'm going to do that by placing some smaller stock around that part where...

Yeah, the boards were spaced a bit closer together than your drawing. I can't think of a way it could have been done differently. So do tell... :D

Boards up! Mount up! I'm not putting the LCD on until I get the front wall treatment up and done. I needed the mount up there so I could make my front wall treatment to accommodate it.

LOL! You typed all that up for nothing because I already did it. I used 3 1/2" lag bolts to secure the 2x4's to the studs, though. And I only used 3 lag bolts per 2x4 (right in the center). The battery on my drilled died halfway through the very last hole. Just for fun, I held onto the...

Wish I had something that large.

You really think that will work, fitz? No worries of it falling? If so, I think I may do that. I guess the lag bolts to secure the new 2x4's to the wall will have to be twice as long, huh?

The monitor is 42" and the mount itself weighs about 30lb and comes with 4" (or longer, don't have them in front of me) lag bolts. I'm not sure a peice of 3/4" ply is going to hold it. I think it may rip right out.

Thanks, fitz! On another note...I went to mount my the hardware that is used to mount my LCD to the wall. Well, I'll be damned if it won't mount in the CENTER of the wall!!!! The studs are 16" on center but I need at least two studs to mount the hardware...and there's a stud in the...

My local Guitar Center sucks. Besides, I don't feel like test driving something with some ass hat standing over my shoulder and pre-teen kids running around beating on drums/keyboards/you name it. And there aren't any other music stores that carry any level of respectable recording gear, let...

Well, there's a substantial difference between something like Guitar Tracks and Sonar. Sonar is more on par with Pro Tools. I'm still super disappointed that I can't download an iLok free demo. Even if it expired after 24 hours. Just the mere fact of it not having a demo is going to weigh...

You're being way too generous, but thanks.

Uh...what? :D
