Tuning Ceiling panels screws before filling with rockwool and installing fabric

This is the hook on the panel

The back where the hook screws

How it hangs

Panels taken off after tuned, to be filled with rockwool and get the fabric upholstered.

This is amazing!

Thanks so much for inspiring me! As I look around my spare bedroom studio, I am blown away by what your doing! Soon I should have my own production suite thread, and to be honest you inspired me to do it!

Thanks!

It's different woods.

One is beech and the other is sucupira.

EduardoApolonia · 22nd December 2007, 06:32 PM

Panels have fabric on one side and now it's time to fill with rockwool.
Some have 1 layer of 40mm and 1 of 30mm and the rest has 1 layer of 60mm and 1 of 30mm.

Meanwhile the wood floor is being installed.
This is the control room.

There was a problem with the floor. It couldn't be done without any problems!!!!
I asked for 2 kinds of floor but with the same height 19mm, but the company who sold me the floor and was installing it, got one in 18mm and the other in 17mm.
When I saw the difference it was too late and they had the whole 17mm and half of the 18mm installed in the recording room.
It had a difference of 1mm from one floor to the other, which wasn't good, so I told them that it wasn't right.
They had to take a row out of the 17mm so that they could desguise the difference in height.
They took half a day to get the this row out!!! the wood floor was glued to the floor plywood, it took some pieces of plywood out.
If I had told them to take everything out I think that they would have taken a month!!!!

The electric sockets have arrived and are ready to be installed after nailing the wall panels.

You're absolutely right!!!!

I don't have the barefoots yet, they are arriving tomorrow or begining of next week, FedEx tracking says that the Barefoots are in Spain!!!!

I still need the Argosy furniture which is arriving 1st week of January, to install everything.

EduardoApolonia · 27th December 2007, 01:24 PM

More pics of the wood floor, it's already done, the rest of the Control room will have carpet.
After the wall fabric panels and carpet are installed it will have the wood base installed all around the rooms.

As you can see the fabric panels are already being installed. :)
