Well it's been just slightly over one year since I started my storage room project and thought I would post an update of the progress so far.
Most all of the rough construction is completed, with the exception of building an audio equipment rack and installing some additional small shelves for manuals and software.
There are 13 machines presently displayed in the room, but my actual progress with them so far has been somewhat slow. This is mostly because my main goal is to complete all of the physical construction of the room first, but I'm having a hard time deciding what direction to go next.
The cheapest and easiest course of action would be to construct a nice audio rack, install it under the main counter and hopefully have enough space left, to include perhaps two more computers in the room. Quick, easy, done.
The other, not so cheap and easy option, would be to construct a whole new addition to the room, just for audio and communications gear. Locating the audio rack in the new room, would allow me to fit perhaps five, instead of only two more computers into the main room.
I have to admit, the thought of having a second room, with a dedicated listening area, is certainly appealing. The biggest hurdle to this is, of course, time and money.
Yes, I do realize that this is ultimately my own decision to make and since I'm sure I've babbled way too long about this already, I'll just stop now and post the links.
The project from the beginning, with some short captions to explain things along the way.
Same thing, but starting with the moving of the computers into the room, skipping most of the construction stuff.
Have a great day everyone.
