My wife wanted to bring one of the fish tanks back in the house so we had to do some rearranging in the den. I was holding this mount on one wall and then another and she could not make up her mind so I held it up in the corner and in my normal smart arse manner said well how's this. Well you know what they say about karma......she liked it there so I had to figure out how to get it there. I know that they do make some stuff to do this but I ended up getting a swiveling TV mount from Lowes. I had to make a minor modification. The main arm was about 5 inches to long, but after shorting it and punching a new hole it worked out fairly well. If you look from the side just right you can see just a little bit of the mount but tonight I will take it down and adjust the bracket on the back of the mount and that should fix that. -john

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Turned out nice. I talked to my taxi once about having a mount made to fit in a corner.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I think you might have the market "cornered" for that little invention

looks great. If it still shows a little, paint the bracket white. great idea!
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

Thanks guys. On another tbh I have been asked more about the mount so figured I would post it here also. -john Thanks guys. Here is a pic when I pulle the deer away from the wall. The fact that you can move it and get behind it makes it nice. Take out one bolt and you have this. Basically its position when the deer is in place. The "bracket" on the back of the deer. From the side you can tell it eill move left or right, up or down. Bracket readjusted. Deer back up and the TV mount is pretty much hidden. Here is the piece of the main arm that I cut off to get the length correct. Here is the mount that I used. Ordered online from Lowes.

Smart work right there, and one nice buck. The corner mount is really neat!
