My wife wanted to bring one of the fish tanks back in the house so we had to do some rearranging in the den. I was holding this mount on one wall and then another and she could not make up her mind so I held it up in the corner and in my normal smart arse manner said well how's this. Well you know what they say about karma......she liked it there so I had to figure out how to get it there. I know that they do make some stuff to do this but I ended up getting a swiveling TV mount from Lowes. I had to make a minor modification. The main arm was about 5 inches to long, but after shorting it and punching a new hole it worked out fairly well. If you look from the side just right you can see just a little bit of the mount but tonight I will take it down and adjust the bracket on the back of the mount and that should fix that.

Looks great John, Something about that corner mount makes it seem like its popping out of the walls more than a flat mount does...


... Now alls you need to do is paint the wall around it with some leaves and branches. lol

Be glad she didn't want it peeking around the corner John. Unusual rack, how many points is it? I'm seeing 8 or 9 for sure.
