To get around the air ducts, You may want to build a decoupled soffit.

Pros, geniuses- weigh in here please.

So we attempted to put the drywall up without a lift, and it wasn't happening... So we are gonna do it wednesday. We put all the insulation up tho

Well the good news is the soffit is done and some of the ceiling is done.
Band news is my fucking water main busted and was spewing water for a good hour. Luckly my roomates and I got most of the equipment out before it got soaked. Still had pull all the carpet out and dry it and the ground. It fucking blew...

ha, I heard that movie was actually pretty good. It's looking pretty different now. The whole ceil is up. Today I'm gonna spackle, then I but up some bass traps and maybe a little foam on the ceiling and I'm done with construction!
