Rejected gifs, because I want in on this: Reveal hidden contents Yes! It's not super fancy or anything, just for fun. Mostly for the husband. I can make it to the ceiling, but need help getting back down. We were looking at this giant wall, and the thingies were super cheap (ebay, maybe? I forget.) It took about 4 hours to screw them all in, and *something* had to go on that wall anyway - it may as well have been plywood. 6 Quote ~Emerald_Dragonfly Level 13 Warrior Link to comment
