Eh, more or less having a conversation. Anyone with eyes can see it's an AV plate.
Using an arm to make up for that nook would work but would ultimately look like a bandaid, imo. If you build it out you can do all kinds of cool things for the wires, etc.
I've had my 55" Panny Plasma all the way off the wall (16") and it did fine. It's just not something I would do often or leave that way. It's putting it's weight all in one place (the upper bolts).
What I do use the arm for is to be able to pull it off the wall a little and then be able to turn the TV side to side so I can view football games from the deck.
Yeah.. no way. Maybe if you put a 2x4 frame anchored to the back of the built-in so the arm wouldn't be extended out so far.
Anyways.. Flip is going to be super busy. His hands will be full and up to his eyes in shit. My advice is to do whatever makes it work for you now. Plan on doing it up when things settle down.
Literally...
I will probably get this project done in the next month or 2 I'm thinking, shit maybe longer.
Explain to the wife what a big project that is (to fill the wall in) and leave it with the current TV. Then add a drop down 100 plus inch screen and mount a projector, problem solved
You could also pull the TV out and put a child gate on there, thrown kid in behind gate, drop down screen, crank surround sound.

Its funny you say that about the projector.... the other night i was thinking about doing a projector actually going to price them out this week.... being off work for a month is going to get me in trouble.
So fixed the sprinkler issue out front now I can water my grass 3 times a... I mean once a week, Cali drought = Ugly ass dead grass. Tossed around getting artificial grass.
Anyway, I've been too lazy to go look at receivers maybe this week or the week after since I don't go back to work until July 6.
Went to Home Depot before we even bought the house and picked out some tile we liked. Then as of yesterday we decided that 18x18 is too big for the size of our bathroom so we are back on the hunt for a different tile in 12x12.
Spa is officially ready to go, after spending around $200 to get everything. Old filters were shot (should have took a picture) needed to get the PH up etc etc...
What is your guys take on vertical blinds on the slider that leads to the backyard. I've had them in my previous houses but don't know if I want them in this one. Currently we have this 3 piece ikea BS that I hate. (previous owner left it).
also for the windows in the office/etc, we got some custom shutters from JC Penny...not a bad price at all and love em, they are made to fit the window opening perfectly!
I did go to Home Depot just now, they have sliders with blinds that are "built in the slider door". I have been eyeing a new slider door anyway because I'm not a fan of the one I currently have, kind of old. Next time I am in there I'm going to have the give me a quote and see about getting it installed, I believe they wanted a little under $1000 for it.
We don't have a large sliding door like that, just a single door, but also looking at a replacement with the built in blinds. It's just a cleaner look and less worry/cleaning. Great choice and happy early bday!
Oh man a sliding glass door with built-in blinds would be awesome. I can't tell you how many times I've said to my kids "don't pull on the blinds/curtains!"
Can't it be an early birthday present so we can see it now?!

Shoot, for what I just came back a priced for my surround sound I have to choose.. my surround sound with speakers is going to be a little around 1500 I have to make a decision on which I want now..
Update: nothing to get super excitied about, but I am a little.
2 ceiling fans for the kids rooms, gets a little warm up there will probably install this weekend.
Also, going to rip out the carpet in the master and put tile have to go get the rest of the supplies when I don't have the kids so I can have more space to haul it..
Also bought this wall unit storage to store miscellaneous crap in the garage.
Finally bought my receiver, this build is going to come together slowly since I'm watching the "fun fund" I may have to put my fun fund towards something else.

! Yeah the vertical blinds are the de facto for those doors but the built in ones would be awesomesauce!!!
