So Nick and Jerry asked for pictures of the lounge I am currently building in my house. I am not a professional photographer and I used a crappy cell phone.

Specs quoted my post from the weather/whether to smoke thread.

Nothing fancy on my part. 8 x 12 room in the basement, I used the existing foundation for two of the walls and just simple 24" center stud walls for the other two. Ceiling is existing floor joists at 16" centers.

Layer of 8mil visqueen inside, taped the seams with clear packing tape to seal "air tight" then I hung MMR drywall over that (I read somewhere it is less impermeable to smoke than standard drywall?). Half of it was free, so I kept in theme to finish the remainder. I used the old interior door from the front of my house with the weather stripping for a tight air seal. Couple of outlets added.

Will be using an inline fan for exhaust (rated at a 420 cfm on low) through standard 6" round duct work to outside. There is an existing ductwork inlet from the HVAC house system in to the room and I'll add a fresh air vent as well, to aid in the air exchange process.


And yes, the visqueen encloses the entire room, ceiling/walls.

I've said before and I'll continue to say I'm not good with technology. I thought I had 3 pictures to be added. I don't know why they all didn't post? Think

It would be great if photos were easier to upload on this site. I don't have the patience that it requires. Kudos to you for giving it a go. On a side note: I just finished watching Scott Eastwood's premier in "The Longest Ride". I think he did a really good job. I do prefer his Dad's classics.

You can only upload one photo per post.

I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager to 'compress' my photos. It reduces the size in bytes, but leaves the viewable image big enough to see.

I think it dawned on me this morning. You're in Cortland, or used to be, if this is who I'm thinking of. Tom?

I was thinking you could add pics to a post once it got approved, but I guess not. Brick wall




Well anyway, everyone can see the door to get in to my lounge room now! Herfing

Doors and walls, this thing is really coming along.




Seriously though, it looks like a fun project, can't wait to see updates on this.
