This bunch of materials temporarily tacked to the rafters give a hint to what I intend to achieve in this area. Again curved melamine covered hardboard arch over the peak. then comes 4, 1X6 knotty cedar boards lengthwise. A awning of cedar along the lower edge will shield strips of LED lighting from direct view. Then a 3' width of hardboard curved at the hip wall, terminating at layout height. Yes, we're talking a 30" high layout at it's lowest point, but the overall 6' 2" room height and corresponding rafters dictates a lower layout. I plan to utilize office chairs for rolling around the room during operations.
Another shot down the long section of room, previously the focus of all initial work done a few years ago. To the left the hip walls have access hatches to storage over the eves. I've already lost a few radios and a box of tubular track and switches, hidden somewhere in there. Centrally the area behind the chimney is packed with stuff, mostly radio related and in need of moving if I'm to continue insulating. there will be a short intermission in the updates while I shuffle some junk.
