Yeah, same clearance on other door too, but that door will only open to where it's perpendicular to the wall. There will be framing behind it to stop it, so it will never come in contact with the plumbing.
The other door is going to be replaced with a door that opens into the laundry room instead of into the fish room. Unfortunately, I can't flip the door that's there as the hinges are on the wrong side of the frame. I think that one's a right and I need a left.
Thinking about changing how I was planning on doing the ceiling, but not sure yet. All the finish work in the room will be done while I'm waiting the 2 weeks it takes for the Blue Max to fully cure.

I haven't been here for awhile now , but I will stay tune to this build for some ideas when I start mine, right now I'm try to fit it in my budget.
The first few pics show the base complete then the rest show where I stopped because of the rain. I'm still fitting the first layer and have made template pieces, so the subsequent layers go very quick. If I had someone cutting pieces while I was gluing and screwing, it would go very fast now. I stopped to salvage wood from the first front section, but soon tired of unscrewing that stuff, breaking the adhesive bond, and cleaning it up. I should be able to get most of the first layer cutting done tomorrow if the rain doesn't stop me.
There's going to be 1' (8 2x6s stacked) then 3 2x6 beams interlocked for each layer. The subfloor is 4.5" (3 2x6s stacked) then it will have whatever thickness plywood I decide to use over it (probably 3/4" on the bottom and 1/2" or 5/8" or whatever that screwy size is I forget on the walls). It'll be around 6' give or take.
Good god Pete, this thing is going to be a beast! I think I have had the wrong impression of where this was actually going till this point ( Too many other projects going on here and in my world to have kept track).
The more photos I see the more I understand what your doing and the more I'd like to have an extra room like that to fill up with a tank ( oh wait I think I do if I move my office to the shed outside, what the hell I work from my laptop 90% of the time anyway LOL )
Perhaps a sketch up or a MS Paint will help some of the people here better visualize what you are planning here, personally I think your going to have it nailed with this design and you should start working on your patent if it's how I think it is LOL
(can you beleive it... no complaints or anything !!

No, horizontal. If you look at the corner detail, you can see what I'm talking about. There's a short board and a long board that make up the corner. On each layer they switch sides and overlap the one below. The same thing happens with the long boards. You'll understand more when the first layer is complete.
