fox update: the last of the old cabinets are down, the walls are framed, and the corner is insulated. i've even got one piece of drywall up behind where the monitor is gonna go. there was way less mold than i expected behind the old cabinets, it seems the melamine coated MDF took most of the water damage.
i kept the studs a little bit away from the corner so it could be entirely insulated at its thermally weakest point, and so that flex conduit could go around it. worst case scenario, my drywall mud will crack along that tape seam cause it's looser than your mom.

next step: data conduit. i'll use up all the leftover smurf tube before getting anything new, and run the fiber while the walls are open even though it may never get used. the box in the far corner behind the workbench is getting 2x ethernet to the server room, 2x USB to another box below the workbench, and one aux cable to the box behind the radio. i'll add another box somewhere along the left workbench for 2 more ethernet for testing/setting things up. and the box behind the radio is getting a coax from the distribution amp fed from my antennas. i'll need to make a coax to alligator clip thing so the fucker quits being all staticy.
if at some point i do a handcam project stream, this is where it'll be. any suggestions for things to add before i go and do all the data conduit and start filling them up?

fox update: compressed air line is done. the partially dismembered 4 square box worked great for holding the wall plate in place so the whole thing looks nice. all the NPT fittings got the good shit, blue teflon tape and pipe dope over that. so far so good on the no leaks front, and the filter/water trap has already captured a chunk of polyiso foam that fell into the air line at some point.
