You ever hear the saying 90% done, 90% left?

Great work. It really looks good, almost like it were a nice condo.

Wish my basement was dry enough that I could something like this.

Good work!

Question:

Why did you use 2 x 6 for the wall studs? Why not 2x4 or alumastuds?

If your basement isn't dry enough to finish, then you've got problems on the outside of the foundation.

Don't know about the 2x6 but would you use metal studs, in a place with high humidity, and expect them to still be there in 10 years?

I hate metal studs. They're noisy, and pain in the ass to work with. I'm a carpenter, fuck metal studs.

Used 2x6 for the large exterior wall to allow more room for insulation. R-21 vs. R-15. The extra insulation will help balance the use of the HVAC system, since there is only one thermostat, and it's upstairs.

And he, and Jim Caruk, occasionally hang around at motorcycle charity events. Caruk rides, but I haven't seen Holmes with a bike yet.
