This was a Problem Basement to start with ,Low ceilings, heating ducts, foundation problems - you name it I had it But how do you eat an Elephant?? One bite at a time.
And that's how I approached this job, other then Elect and plumbing I did all the work by myself.

Wish I had more jobs like this one,,, but I have a feeling a basement refinished is in my future !
Project from six years ago.
Wow, what a difference! Great job.

Sno - WTF! That is incredible! Nice work! Your design? If so (even if it isn't) I'm stealing ideas my friend. Does that ceiling have a curve in it? I love the posts! give us some detailed info on them. Need more info to steal properly!
Link not working.
Very creative (two thumbs up).

I documented the whole project from start to finish
its in the remolding section under "first big job"
"I love the posts!"
First thing I thought, do tell!!! Nice work..
ugh def been there before with the horror basements. they are a lot of work and for some reason at least where i am from the basement stairs are always 28" or less. god bless bilco doors. good job on ur work. im guessing you curve cut 5/8 ply and used 5/4 cats for ur curve ceiling spots. recessed ceilings in a basement are a lot of work for the electricians and plumber but well worth it for getting the desired ceiling heights. keep on trucking snobnd
