Poor Scout, having to climb the ladder to paint the top of that window & door frame no wonder he's all tuckered out. :lolb:

Uh, that's a bit darker shade of paint than I'd imagined...but then I'm no interior decorator as the missus will attest.

That's not for the walls bent. It was just a sample on the OSB material. Actually that is the color of the window and door trim.

Scout wanted to see if we would be able to even get those 4'x8' panels in through the bathroom door and then vertical once in the bathroom. It's tight and I temporarily moved the vanity out of the way, but doable without too much fuss. Got one panel up just to see how it's going to look. The little guy seemed fairly pleased with the results.

I really like that wall covering. I was just yanking your chain on the painting. When I built my shop, I designated one room for painting. I wanted it brilliant white. The walls were OSB; ‘bout nine gallons of gloss oil base and I had my “brilliant white “ but it still looks like crap if you look at the walls. Let’er age gracefully  :old:  PS: accent at will  8)

A light colored painted wall makes it easier to find the things you throw against it.

Of course, Bill may not have that need...but I do. And it ain't ideas I'm throwing.  ;D

Zee, my penchant is dropping things on the floor where they are instantly scooped up and whisked away by the shop gremlims never to be seen again.

I hear you Cletus. The OSB painting ain't happening. The throne room is another matter  :lolb:

I know Pete. If Bill would of just used normal drywall on the walls, I bet he could of found some nice wallpaper that looked just like unpainted OSB!  >:D
