Mike... Do I know you??? The screen name "railer...", living in Newton- about 40 minutes from me... Are you a mini-trucker?!?!

I thought the same thing! I was actually scanning the section to find my thread, to see if there were any updates, and thought this was MY thread!!! GREAT LINE!!!

So, what all is entailed in pulling a permit? Why is it needed, if it won't actually be a bedroom? If I need one, I need one. That's fine. One more question, I have never framed off a door. I have framed a recessed hole in a wall, and that was pretty easy. Is there anything I should keep in mind...

Those holes in the wall on the left are the vent holes. On the other side of the wall, there are vents covering the holes. I will keep the proper air circulation in the utility room. Now, why do you say that the utility room can't be next to a bedroom? The utility room is directly next to a...

The smaller, round tube is just the dryer vent. I can move that. The large, rectangular duct is the outlet from the HVAC system. I can't (within reason) move that. It would require much more work than I want to put into the job, and I don't want to hire an HVAC technician to do the work for me...

What type of stove? Just curious, I'm no expert AT ALL!

It is a Moen faucet! I LOVE IT!!!!! I have replaced all of my faucets (except the jacuzzi bathroom's faucets) with Moens. I love the quality and styles of them! I also like the mantle clock, but unfortunately, it is a pretty cheap clock. Battery operated, electronic chime. Looks good, though!

Thanks for the compliments. We bought the house in perfect, move-in condition! We have painted the accent wall a dark red in the kitchen, painted in the Master b/r, painted both upstairs regular b/r's, installed chair rails in both b/r's as well, Installed crown molding in the master...

Wow! Good idea, but I'm pretty sure the 3' requirement for the drop ceiling would not be doable. the mechanical components are only 1.5-2', and they are cutting it close! I know what you mean about painting them black, though. Like Chipotle's Mexican restaurant. Looks good, but I don't know how...

By the way, I'd frame off and drywall a new separating wall about 2 ft from that HVAC and water heater.

I have a full finished basement, but it has a HUGE utility room. It is wasted space, just used for storage now. I want to create a "media room" out of this unused space. It would be a fairly quick and easy job, but my ceiling is going to be the hard part. All of the HVAC duct work is going...

Here's a few more.

How's it going? I am new to the forum, but have been working on my house for a couple of years now. Nothing major, just a few small things here and there. I was on DIYchatroom, but haven't been able to bring them up for a week or so, so I thought I'd look for "bigger and better" opportunities...
