I'm currently living in the bottom half of the hose so I want it in my area

. It will be prob 2-3 years before we officially buy it and take it over. So you gotta do what you gotta do!
The only thing in don't like about hanging is you still have the wires to deal with the wires. If I do the square tube then I can run the wires in the centre of the tube and everything is hidden
I did find and old pic of the floor below. Directly to the side of the stairs is a double header beam running with the stairs then then the other joists run the opposite way so I think I should be safe hitting multiple joists
I'll post the old pic in a bit when I dig it up
Do you suspect there will be any weight issues?
