Just wanting to make sure I get things done in the right order. For example I was ready to start putting up my soffits, but realized I hadn't painted my ceiling yet and that it would be much easier to paint it before I built the things.
So, for the sake of some sense of planning to my HT project, can we lay out a plan for progressing through a HT.
I'm thinking:
* Make a master plan (I skipped this step
)
* Frame walls
* Run electrical in walls (in my case just wires to bring into room so no direct holes other than small 1/2" in drywall)
* Insulate walls
* Subfloor - I used "subflor" brand
* Place RSIC clips, hat channel
* Drywall layer 1 ceiling first
* Caulk around the edges, tape and mud seams
* Green glue ceiling
* Drywall layer 2 ceiling (no overlying seams)
* Caulk again over 2nd layer, tape and mud seams
* Drywall layer 1 walls
* Caulk top and bottom of walls, tape and mud
* Green glue walls
* Drywall layer 2 walls (no overlying seams)
* Caulk again top and bottom, tape and mud
This is where I am now.
From here, I am planning:
* Finish and paint ceiling
* Build soffits along side and back walls
* Build columns along side walls, mount speakers inside
* Run wiring from Graphic eye mounted in column to lights in soffits
* Install door
* Build stage front
* Build screen wall and speaker wall
* Build platform rear
* Run speaker wire in soffits to front and side and rear speakers
* Install 1" furring strips around room for GOM
* Install Linacoustic, batting and then GOM
* Install carpet
* Install screen and projector
Anything look out of order in this plan.
I'm just want to make sure I'm not missing something...oops should have done this before that....
