I'm together with hence happy to partner alongside Rockwell tools for the completion of this project. But, I'm to a greater extent than than happy to know that 1 of yous tin endure the winner of 1 of their awesome tools!
I'll utter to yous well-nigh that inwards a minute. First, let's utter well-nigh this project. This was 1 of those 2 inwards 1 projects, where you're to a greater extent than excited well-nigh 1 of those said projects, but inwards lodge to achieve it yous take to start tackle the 1 that's non that exciting.
This is how the entrance of my sleeping room used to look, this is from the within of the room. I ever wanted to install molding all only about the niche only about the door (kind of a deadening project). Lately, alongside all the organization I'm trying to seat into this room, I decided that a jewelry box would jibe perfectly inwards this infinite too.
So, I straight off laid upward to work... Trim + Jewelry box, of course of written report the jewelry box was the fun project.
But, start things first... The skinny cut only about the door together with the baseboards were removed.
Using 1x3 together with 1x6 the cut was installed only about the door, move yesteryear together with left side of the entrance. The excogitation for the jewelry box was to possess got it installed inwards betwixt the studs on the correct wall, concealing it alongside the trim. My son's sleeping room is on the other side of this wall, no take to worry well-nigh H2O lines, opposite to the other wall where in that location is a shower, a pipage must endure running all along that side.
Even earlier I began installing the trim, I knew in that location was a stud correct inwards the middle of my futurity jewelry box, I decided to move only about it.
Just to brand certain the wall was clear (besides the stud inwards the middle!), using the Rockwell Sonicrafter X2 1 minor opening was done on the Sheetrock. Everything looked OK. :)
Since I couldn't run across yesteryear the other side of the stud, some other hole was done to clear things upward on that side too, but ho-ho, non together with hence fast! Two pipes + a traverse slice of stud were inwards there. :( I was surprised the stud finder didn't betoken that stud?! Perhaps the fact that in that location is some infinite betwixt the slice of woods together with the drywall made the stud finder larn silent? I was together with hence glad I didn't cutting through those pipes! This is the perfect representative of how prissy is to move alongside the correct tools :) Cutting the drywall alongside the Sonicrafter X2 was real easy, I laid upward the speed at a comfortable like shooting fish in a barrel speed together with I didn't force the blade all the agency through, puff... it was scary to run across those pipes. I assume those are some form of air pipes, the principal air duct is similar 2 feet away.
After finding those pipes inwards the wall, the jewelry box projection got cancelled. I ameliorate uncovering some other wall for this.
My side yesteryear side motion was to unopen those holes together with popular off on installing the cut on that side of the wall.
The in conclusion business office was to install cut all only about the front end face, the skinny cut taken from only about the door was re-purposed here.
After caulking, sanding together with giving everything 3 coats of paint, this is how it looks:
It's been a long ride alongside this sleeping room makeover. I even together with hence take to pigment the doors, modify the hardware, supercede the carpet, install the baseboard together with decorate all around.
Stay tuned because my side yesteryear side projection also brings some other amazing Rockwell Tool Giveaway, only inwards fourth dimension for Mother's day!
