***not everything is in this first picture obviously.

****this list will grow over the next couple of days as i go buy more stuff to finish the room

so first off after clearing out the room it's time to clean.

1. vacuum and then use a carpet cleaner to get all the shit out of your carpet. trust me there's a lot of dirt, mold spores and all kinds of nasty stuff. obviously, if you don't have carpet you can skip this part but you should still vacuum.

2. wash the walls. grab a bucket, sponge, bleach and or a little bit of dish soap. i'll use a little bleach as my walls are white. stick to the soap if your walls are any other color. i don't know if your paint will get bleached or what but i'd rather not find out. again you'll be surprised how dirty that water gets. i'll wipe down the inside of the tent too once it's built.

3. time to put together your tent. keep all your polls separated and organized and you'll have the frame built in 10 min. piece of cake just follow the instructions. punch a hole in a drop ceiling if you have to like me lol.

4. getting the tent around the frame is the hardest part of the job. remember to always work from the top down.

5. once the top of the tent fits snugly over the top of your frame move down the the bottom and secure that next.

6. take a break and smoke a joint because you probably just used a weeks worth of swear words getting that cover on.

7. zipper that baby up and admire the fact that you can follow illustrated instructions.

i'll be hanging up the lights and exhaust in this post. i might not get to it tomorrow because of work
