South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

Yeah on the road you don't get as much stuff going in to it but I keep mine in that direction all the time I just put a sock over it if I'm doing dusty trails

 

@Airborne Fister I'm actually looking at getting this head now

@OCD 08 you going to meat meet next month ?

 

For all you slackers that haven't signed up for the TW Smoked Meet September 14th at Benford Brewing, you better get on it! See my sig for details.

 

I've looked into that too.. wonder how well it works

 

How much would yall pay someone to mount a tv on a wall and run some hidden wires down below to the a/v?

What about speakers? I feel like speakers are much more involved because they are further from the source.

My sister in law just moved and asked if I could do it for them instead of them hiring a pro.

Edit: I suppose I should add that they offered to pay for this.


Backstory: She posted on FB asking for some references and I considered tagging her husband as a joke. At their new house the other day and she pulled me to the side and said in no way is he allowed to attempt this unsupervised by himself . Tits on a bull. Tits on a bull

 

Has a different kind of intake idk about the holes under the intake. Looks like it might suck in even more dust.

 

should work pretty good sense most of your drier country run that style snorkel head

 

What’s your time worth for family?! Personally I’d do it for a good dinner!

 

I had a guy do some work like this for me in the past. he was an electrician type. I think I paid him $150 at the time.

Will need to make sure the TV mounting bracket can catch some studs, or you may have to open up the wall and put some cross studs in.

Need to mount a box like this

He pulled wire and cable up through the crawlspace.

 

Shoot if this keeps up, I may need that dinner lol. Boat is taking on water and we gots to eat!

They've offered cash. Just trying to get a roundabout number. I'll take what they offer, but if they ask me how much they owe me I honestly don't know where to begin.

 

If you mount it on a load bearing wall then you just need to find 2studs mount the tv make sure it’s not an outside wall. Poke 2 holes in the wall get the wall pates. And mount the speakers next to the tv. Drop the speaker wires and tv input wires down and use a coat hanger or something like that to fish the wires out. It’s pretty easy. We did it in our house. Took me 30 mins to find the wires but everything else was super fast.

 

I am planning on using those pull through boxes. Power is already there.

TV will be floating above the accessories so its just a straight shot down.

Ahh yea forgot about the leak!! Depending on how long you think it’d take $50 +$20 hr and their change jar no matter how full or empty! Then extra if you gotta get up in attic or down in crawl this heat to fish the cables!

 

Happy Birthday! Had my truck 5 years today!

 

@SC2SC happy birthday

 

Happy Birthday for my truck!

5 years today.
Welcome to TW!

 

Probably not we have friends in town that weekend.

 

Well damn

 

My BIL has done a ton of work for us that I simply lack the experience or time to do it.

Always pay with a solid steak dinner plus cost of material, if any.

If he asks me to help do something, I don’t ask questions, just go and do it.
