Construction
Here is a basic printable PDF of the studio with measurements.
Ultimately, the goal is to move the studio from the house to the carport, or perhaps to a new room beside the carport. Ben is working on costing out this project.
Carport studio
If we use the whole carport, we must lay a new concrete path for wheelchair accessibility. If we use half the carport, we would not need to do this.
It would seem cooler to have a full-carport studio, something we could fit a band in.
New structure beside carport
We could construct a new structure beside the existing carport. Currently that space is occupied by a 10x10 shed filled with mostly junk, and an old truck that Rick suggested we should offload for cheap just to get rid of it.
How much would it cost?
- 10x20 approx.
- concrete foundation
- basic framing
- roof
- quality siding
- electric
- plumbing (bathroom?)
- etc
Could we simply find a pre-made shed/office thing with electric?
- Shed from costco $3700 with floor.
Cushioned turntable surface
The turntables, when turned up, transmit the sound of feet stomping on the floor, quite clearly. We should maybe suspend a table from the ceiling. And having a concrete floor lined with carpet might help.
Command chair layout
Figuring a 10x20 room, we could do like a 10x8 three or four-sided desk style command chair.
