    Word of advice, DO NOT wear gloves when working with rotating parts of machines! If you run your hand into the blade, it might catch and PULL your hand in and do more damage. Pay 100% attention to your work. As a contractor working overseas on military bases, I had to get on SAFETY for not following the rules. They would tell workers to wear gloves when operating table saws and I had to correct them! These are the people who SHOULD know too!

    You really lucked out with how the room was already designed. The rock wall and fireplace, and the wood paneling really ties it all together. Would not look half as cool without those, tbh.

    • @MikeWat

      I do think he complemented what he had with the furnishings and design he chose. The rock wall fireplace is great on its own but the wood paneling is an old look that others may have decided on removing to replace with drywall (possibly to hang up posters or those sound proofing panels on). He made it work with the choice of color of his sofa and chaise lounge, as well as the wooden panels of his projector/TV stand.

    Mike, nice job! Impressive transformation.🔥
    You mentioned you were new to woodworking. I noticed you wearing glove while using the table saw. I was always cautioned against wearing gloves while using fast spinning power tools like saws, routers, and such because the glove can catch in them and pull your hand in. I actually had a college classmate lose a couple of fingers while wearing gloves and using a lathe. Whatever you do just be careful.

    • @ilyamiskov
      @ilyamiskov Рік тому +2

      Just wanted to mention this and went to the comment section to see if anyone had mentioned it already. Glad you did!
      People, please don't ever EVER wear gloves if you're working with spinning power tools. Too many horror stories of people losing their fingers or hands because of this.

    • @MikeWat
      @MikeWat  Рік тому +1

  • @JoshuaKnab
    @JoshuaKnab Рік тому +8

    Looks fantastic! One thing you might consider upgrading in the future is having actual 5.1 surround sound speakers. Sound bars can work really well but I'm telling you once you get decent speakers you won't be able to go back. Especially since you have ceiling tiles, running speaker wire would be easy without them showing.

    • @MikeWat
      @MikeWat  Рік тому +2

      Will definitely look into that for future upgrades, thanks Josh!

  • @AzureViking
    @AzureViking Рік тому +1

    Love it! Looks super clean and warm and welcoming. The only thing I'd have to change is add an acoustic treatment and get rid of or cover up the god awful ceiling tiles. I hate those things so much. Its like have hub caps on a supercar. Ceiling tiles scream old hospital or office dingy office space. Hopefully you can find a solution for that in the future. Enjoy!

  • @ellisz5972

    This looks awesome. I did a similar project (no nearly as involved tho) and the only thing I would recommend is painting the ceiling the same color as the dark accent wall. Use a matte finish and it will make a huge difference to the room. Amazing job on the TV cabinet tho, that thing is a work of art.

  • @lennartrauhe
    @lennartrauhe 2 місяці тому

    U should REALLY let the soundbar "tone-scan" the room again after changing anything about it!
    Since it works via reflecting the sound off surfaces, adding the Slat Panels, sofa & table, drastically changes the accoustics of the space!
    Also, how about putting a small firewood-storing shelf next to the 🔥fireplace on the right, to hide the wall outlet and cabel :) ..(it also improves accoustics a tiny bit and looks real cosy)

    Visually looks very nice. For me though I’d do more darker everything, sound deadening, and an actual 7.2.6 atmos speaker setup. But completely understand given the space you worked with you probably can’t do a crazy speaker setup without spending a ton of money. Well done!

  • @Gateseleven
    @Gateseleven Рік тому

    for the wood on longer lengths you can buy a stand with a iron roller ontop that will roll the wood forward as you cut it, they are for construction/home work. idk the name for them.
    when you have more guest over you Ould move the from sitting sofa back to sofa like the ottoman so everyone have feet up and comfy.

    Rookie move on the painting. You should have used a matte or eggshell finish paint instead of a glossy paint. Glossy paints show the imperfections in your walls & they reflect the light from the projector.
