Basement Brewery/Bar renovation

Oh yea... I hear what you are saying... I actually got a great suggestion from a fellow homebrewer. He said just get some poly-ply and stick what I can behind the wall and then any areas that can't get behind them just cut to size of the opening and seal up with silicon... He said its really important that no moisture gets into the Fiberglass Insulation... So I'm goign to try that with the wall side... I'll definitely have to get a picture of that up when I do that this weekend.

If it gets in the insulation you will be getting very sick from mold spores

Exactly why I'll be getting that Poly Ply roll tonight and probably start sealing... I plan on Drywalling a little bit this weekend and also trying to get rid of the garbage that I have in the area... I also need to go to the dump and get rid of all the extra crap that I have in the basement... Old Sub boxes need to go big time... wish I could sell them but really they arent worth anything.

OK... SOOOOO sorry its been a while since the update...

The poly/ply is up and over the studs and some areas and under in most... I did two layers in the areas that there was over/unders to be safe...

Now on to the fun part... I have all the lighting minus one possible light in the corner that I need to move... all up wired and connected to the panel! YAY Hard stuff is out of the way!

All that needs to be done are the following:

1. Move said light
2. Wire an outlet in bar area for Chest freezer and Computer.
3. Possibly wire up an additional directional light for a proposed Dart throwing area.
4. Box in pillars with poplar wood. and stain.
5. Sheet rock the walls and ceiling.
6. Moulding
7. Paint the floor with Epoxy garage floor paint.
8. Paint the walls and trim...
9. Drink a beer/throw a party.

Pictures to be put on tonight of the progress.

Oh yea and I ordered my new bulb for the projector so that should be coming in by the end of this week (hopefully) so pictures of that set up will be coming shortly as well.
