I made a video documenting the past few weeks, during which time I've been converting my spare room into a work-from-home space, as well as keeping a spare bed for when I have visitors.
I don't really know what I'm doing most of the time, and I only had basic tools and a small space to work, but after a lot of trial-and-error and guess work, i'm pretty happy with the results.
Thank you for watching :)
