    Thanks for the idea of using the projector to plan the star template. Did you use different sized fibers to create the smaller and larger stars? If so, which size fibers? Thanks

    Hi Eric, nice video. So I’m doing my theater room and my setup is a bit different. I have rockwool safe and sound all across the walls and ceiling followed by resilient sound channel and 2 sheets of 5/8 Sheetrock on the walls but only a single layer of 5/8 on the ceiling. And I would like to follow your setup and install mdf star ceiling. Is this possible with resilient channels? My ceiling is about 24’ long but I have created soffit on all 4 sides for side lightening so I have about 18’-20’ in length and about 8’ wide. Is it possible to accomplish this without any sagging or cracks? Thanks and appreciate any help. Any tips or instructions would be appreciated!!

  • @superkool6418

    Great job, but am I missing something...did you paint the underside (visible) of the panel, black?? Obviously one would want as much contrast as possible?? Maybe I missed the painting step or it wasn't shown. And if you did paint it, surely it would have been easier to perforate the material (from the visible side, for really clean holes), then paint, then insert the fiber, glue, and then clip the lengths? Much easier and cleaner than painting after the fact, over one's head?

  • @daveygivens735
    @daveygivens735 7 років тому +27

    Nice job. Curious why you chose the length of the fiber you did - a shorter clip nearer the surface would have eliminated some of the reflections - or was that intentional?

    Super gaaf,
    Ik zie dat je verschillende kleuren gebruikt bij het omcirkelen van de gaten.
    Echter is de lichtbron dezelfde., wat is het verschil tussen de rode en de groene stippen?

    • @EricvanBallegoie
      @EricvanBallegoie  7 років тому

      Het is inderdaad één lichtbron, maar de diameter van de glasfibers is verschillende. Voor grotere / fellere sterren gebruik je dus de dikkere fibers.
