Last Saturday we put the TV in the entertainment center and then made appointments to get the TV, surround sound and satelite hooked up. Also made appointment to have a carpet man come in and retack and restretch the carpet in the family room.
The technician came in on Tuesday morning to hook up all the electronics. He could only do the satelite and tv in the morning and had to come back later to do the surround sound.
We had the carpet guy scheduled in the afternoon, but cancelled him until we could get the surround sound hooked up because we had to pull up more carpet to run the wires.
Tuesday afternoon the tv technician came back and spent several hours hooking everything up. Sure sounds good.
The carpet guy was rescheduled for Thursday. He showed up and was not impressed with where the tv guy ran the wires. He left alot of the wires right at the base of the EC and no place to put new tack strips.
He recommended we removed the base moulding, cut it down a bit to create a channel for the wires and reattach the base moulding.
Friday I took all the base moulding off, cut it down and tried to reapply it. It never goes back on the way you want it to, so I made all new base mouldng and reattched it.
Carpet guys returned Saturday afternoon and reattached the carpet. Stretched it in places and what a difference it makes to the room. We cleaned and arranged furniture in the family room and I think the new TV is a keeper!!
The only thing left now is the doors. Lots of doors. 15 of them.
Decided to do a bead on the outside of the doors, with mitred corners and a flat panel in the door. This is what the bead looks like on the door.
