Hi everyone.


Well my wife has been wanting the tv in our great room to be mounted on the wall. I put it off because it seemed more like a status symbol more than anything else. But this week I gave in and started the project. Advice: fishing wire up an exterior wall with a gas fireplace is a real SOB!

Hope to finish this weekend.

So I got the tv mount installed and realized that our exterior walls are framed with 2x6s which is a nice bonus. I haven't finished running the wire yet but got the holes drilled and fish tape ran so I'm no so worried about it. So I thought I'd throw the tv up on the mount just to see how it looked. I liked it so got the wife to look, she likes it but says now she wants to paint the wall before I finish. Translates to I have to paint the wall before I finish the tv install. We have like 24' ceilings in this room. Rent scaffolding and buy paint are you friggin kidding me?
