Baffle wall continued

-
Quick update with todays progress. I've run the cables for the left, centre and right loudspeaker, a power cable and signal cable for the subwoofer and some lighting cables for the downlighters above the screen which will be on there own circuit. These are really only for effect - the plan is to cast some light on the screen surface when the system isn't on, but will be completely off when a movie is being watched.
Once the cables were in, I've filled the back wall with 100mm insulation to help absorb any energy in the baffle wall from the speakers and sub.
Tomorrow's job is to cut, glue and screw the MDF to the front of the baffle wall, with holes cut for the speakers and subwoofer. Keep checking back for more updates ;)

Phone Box and Big Ben

Phone Box and Big Ben Originally uploaded by Daveaphillips I love this photo. I wanted a really cool photo of a London phone box, and I think I did it. I took three exposures using a D80, and then used Photomatix Pro to combine the three images to one. Photomatix is an amazing bit of software, it's worth paying for the upgrade to the Pro version - it sorted out a load of ghosting issues. I have this as my iPhone background :)

Build your own bed

OK, so I need a new bed. Frames can be really expensive, and it's also pretty difficult to find something that's just right. So I searched around online and found this great blog by Ana White with a post about some beds she made. I wanted a UK queen sized frame, so decided to set about making my own SketchUp drawing. I also wanted to give the appearance of a 'floating' frame, so made some changes to the structure to allow the legs to be set in slightly. I am yet to build it, but thought I'd post my 'artists impression' of what I want it to look like. When I get round to putting it together, I'll post step-by-step instructions with detailed SketchUp drawings, and when I know it will actually work I'll provide a link to the Warehouse so you can download the file if you'd like to make your own. So anyway, without further ado, the picture!
