Any new progress on my degree show?
Mmm… I would say that right now I need a long good break lol… but anyway my new progress since my last post was about mounting up the panels so that it looks more of a wall and not some half built construction. I had the chipboard panels ordered to the right scale of my room which would be 8Ft high and 4Ft width and all three of them managed to fit on each side of the walls nicely with no excess board hanging out. I was very pleased with this outcome of mounting them nicely.
The main cross beams go along from one side of the wall to the other wall and are fitted with metal brackets so that they are screwed down either side. The beams pull each side of the walls together which making the room more secure and would also help more with making the beginnings of a ceiling. This was my general idea as I have all of my sketch drawing ideas in my book of how my room should look so all of this was carefully planned early in the year.
Next plan of action?
I will try working on painting white around the outside of the room once all the panels are successfully mounted up and also try to paint black on the inside to give it the dark room feel to it. I will also attempt to try mounting at least my English roof within the next few days so it will give me confidence of my room coming together quicker and make me work harder. Once I have done all of these tasks then I can think about mounting the Chinese roof and try making the support beams to go underneath so that it would not fall down.
