<div>Many many years ago, somewhere on one of the ukha
properties (might have been a blog post, list email or
even an early forum post) I saw someone had built out a
fake chimney breast to house their TV &amp; AV equipment
while redecorating their lounge.<br>
<br>
</div>
It was made using stud work &amp; plasterboard and all the
AV equipment was contained inside it.<br>
<br>
</div>
Was that your lounge? I'm after doing something similar and
would like to see how it was done, was there anything
different about the stud work that just a normal stud wall.<br>
<br>
</div>
Has anyone seen anything similar elsewhere? All the examples I
see nowadays are for floating walls, which look nice but they're
not what I want.<br clear="all">
