Fixed the "hidden" corner

Dad built this corner when he was here in April, but one can see his eye sight is not what it used to be (and, if that matters, neither is mine), so I decided to "straighten it up" and make it plumb before putting up the drywall.


Being plumb is important! Hidden corner with heating duct going down under the floor (in insulated box) to pop up under the large western windows.


Secret lines... (and mandatory temporary smoke detector, a tad low, but still better than nothing).


Yes, there is mastic underneath, and then the duct tape is secured with metal tie wraps to ensure it stays in place even it dries out over the years (cheap insurance).
Wires to three way light over stairs in background and control circuit to central vacuum haging down. In here (but hidden) is also Cat5 to a security camera, power to the same, wiring to a new alarm system keypad, and other goodies. Part of corner will eventually be an "odd" shelf, since there is room to "do something" with it.


Everything is sealed and nicely secured. Central vacuum pipes to be terminated as soon as drywall is up.


Home made weights work as well!
