What ive been up too :)
It all started when i decided to tidy the loft up which kind of turned into boading all the loft out, insulating it, putting shelfs up and plasterboading it turning it into a workshop Hidden Content
Then i started doing the hallway which involved stripping all wallpaper and putting some new up.
After that i thought the front room needs a bit of tlc so i started to strip wallpaper, erm all the plaster fell off!! GULP!

OOOOOOOOOOps!! So i started to look at the tv and though i could stud wall it all out and play with my new first fix nail gun Hidden Content Which i shot myself with twice Hidden Content I made a shelf unit and sorted all the wirning out so i could have a pc power supply in there to power etractor fans to expell heat from the VU solo, the 2 xboxes in there, the amp, Blue Ray player and finally my Rasperry PI Hidden Content And i needed to get power to one of the xboxes as it has a 2tb internal hard drive in it which needs powering Hidden Content
Hidden Content
That was after about 2 days, lots of plasters and a trip to A and E Hidden Content The trip to A and E was for me cutting the back of my hand open on a broken picture nothing to do with the nail gun before you say anything Berley Hidden Content
I made a little cubby hole so i can have the router and modem in there and also access to the wiring of the tv ect as i didnt want wires on show Hidden Content
Hidden Content
Nearly there but im thinking i need some LED lights Hidden Content

All the LEDs run off the pc power supply i have in the cubby hole and i had to install another pc power supply as it wasnt powful enough to power the hard drive and leds and fans all at once Hidden Content Have got some spare ones kicking about so no biggie Hidden Content
Then i had a look at the windows which are old wooden sash windows which are going to be replaced soon as they are falling apart Hidden Content I just plasterboaded the walls around the windows so when the new windows get fitted i can just platerboad up to where i have already done, papar like the rest of it and job done. I got a sheet of mdf cut it into strips and went around the window just to cover the gap Hidden Content I quite like it and think when the new windos go in i will be putting something similar back up to add effect to the windows Hidden Content

Then i made a new computer desk out of mdf with a bit of worktop and made some shelves at the top with some led lights in just to add a bit of effect Hidden Content

These are a couple of pictures of the stair way that i havent quite finished waiting for a carpet fitter to come and fit it for me Hidden Content

I will post a few more piccys when i have got the rest sorted out Hidden Content
Hope that you like it Hidden Content

Re: What ive been up too :)
You can laugh that did happen when i was trying to get in the loft without a ladder Hidden Content and it fookin hurt Hidden Content if you look at the picture of the stairs they hurt when you go down on your head Hidden Content
EDIT Thanks alan its getting there now its took a long time, money, blood and tears but been worth it Hidden Content Cost about ?1200 with the loft coversion i did (Which i will post some piccys tomorrow) the stairs and hallway which i totally gutted and all new LED gu10 bulbs through the flat Hidden Content I hate to think how much it would have been if i had to get people in to do it as ive been messing about with it for about 3 months!! Thats not full time though only weekends and nights after work but bet it would have cost a pretty penny or two!
