muddin'

i was rather hesitant to try and put a wall up over the fireplace, having no experience with drywall, but after removing the 3/8" wood paneling it seemed straight forward enough. although having spent many years with a putty knife in hand i thought the taping and mudding would be easier... the corners definitely take some practice and the ceiling seam is yet to be done but in the end i think it's going to come out alright.

pretty sweet paneling but hey...


drywall cut, afraid to actually nail it in


butcher job, but nothing some sandpaper can't fix


little progress in the rec room as well...
