This thread is going to have some pretty trick shit, I figured you guys might enjoy some of the stuff that my new project has going on. The house is a new construction for lack of a better term "Mcmansion". It a massive 11000 sq.ft house set on 2.5 acres. This week I am doing a coffered ceiling in the study. The layout/on site design took 23 man hours and is within a 1/32" in all directions "XYZ". Some guys just start in a corner and fight the sumbitch until they get done, I prefer a more methodical approach from the beginning and then fight the sumbitch until I get done I am guessing I will have about 200 man hours in this ceiling (not including finish) but I learned along time ago "It is what it is". If you look closely you will see some strings layed out in a grid pattern, the string line represents where the wood will be and is used as a reference so I can figure out what the hell is going on. If this part of the process is done correctly the actual woodworking will be smooth sailing.
