more pics......started the piping for power, video and audio cables......40mm PVC pipe.....

Now that the floor and doorway is done we have the final dimensions. Ive attached a JPEG of the stud framing and ceiling trusses as well as the sketchup file.

I now have to design the RFZ......i am trouble with this mainly with the angles of the side walls. Is there a thread dealing with ray tracing? Or maybe a helpfull soul could help me with this? (the sketchup file attached)

There are several threads on ray-tracing, but unfortunately I don't have any bookmarked. But if you use the "search" feature on the forum, you should be able to find information on how to do it.

Stuart offered me a great tutorial in my thread a few months back - it helped me out immensely! Perhaps start there.
