Hi Ethan,

"Man Cave Audio" is slowly evolving! Overall studio space is 32' x 40' rough.

Deduct 18" in each direction for existing walls/foam insulation. Height is 9' on average, plus or minus 2." We shot it with a laser, to be sure. Same sprayed on open cell foam (plus fire ******ant) on ceiling.

CR is 20'ish by 20'ish. As the plan develops, it will get pushed and pulled into an acceptable rectangle-ish shape. Drum room is 10'ish by 10'ish.

Advise was that a decent CR should be at least 400 square feet.

Again, as you guys hand me my ass, those spaces will take on "real" dimensions.

I've already modified the space drawings, as you'll see in the new sketch.

1.The newly created airlock allows equipment entry, better seals. 2. Kitchenette abandoned.
3. Sliding glass doors almost completely eliminated.
4. Bathroom moved into airlock.
5. Shop moved to "off" Equip Room. Poss passthru to "live space."
6. CR "hardened" by eliminating glass doors.
7. Booth (8' x 8' approx) relocated but angles to be determined later.

Okay, lemme have it. I already know I'm an idiot, Here's your chance to prove it!
