my home cinema room is finished (pics)

30-03-2005, 12:42 PM

Me, the wife and our 2 year old son moved to austraila one year ago next week, since march 2004 my home theater gear has been packed up in boxes, NOT ANYMORE

13 days ago i stated to convert the garage and today its finished

it cost a little bit over $2000 and i managed to do all the work myself, some things i'd done for the first time like the coving and plaster boarding but some how i pulled it off and we love it.
as you can see i dont have a projector yet but all the wiring is in place for one, thats next on the to-buy list.
The first pic was taken 13 days ago on march 17
next two taken yesterday march 29.

Looks awesome! And 13 days is just unreal! It's taken nearly 6 weeks for me to complete my garage conversion!

thanks for your comments guys, out of those 13 days 4 were weekend days and i did take 5 days annual leave so i managed to put in 9 full 14 hour days, it was hard work but well worth the effort

can't wait to get my projector now.

Good looking room and great amount of space. Are the Aussies big into HC or do they think you're a mad Pom? Good work.

Looks Great. how did you set up the wiring for the projector? Im guessing that the white bit on the roof that looks like a smoke alarm is some kind of cover? Im building soon and will need to do the same.

Wow nice room,
I just got mine re done from a bar style which I didn't like to a much more modern style that I do. I'm glad to see your lovely mac sitting in the corner too (mac fangirl here) and I have one in my HC room also hehe
