How to Mount Plasma at the Corner of a Wall?
 
I have a really weird plasma mount idea and I don't know if anyone has heard of it before: my 51" Plasma needs to mount at the 90' angle of a wall. Is there a bracket that hugs the corner, hits the studs, and can do this?

Ceiling mount would be better.

the mounts that I have seen that have movable arms are made for smaller and lighter TVs then your 51" however I could be wrong

the mount that Scooter links to is an accessory to do what you want to do but requires the purchase of a normal mount as well

you could do the same thing as Scooters link by using 2x4s to bridge the gap then install the normal mount. This would be cheapest solution

I've used the articulated mounts (quality ones) for larger TV's, not a fan.

They can be annoying to get sitting straight due to flex in the mount itself.

Only matters if you are anal about stuff like that.

These guys have hundreds of TV mounts. Excellent prices too.

cruise your local sports bars for ideas - common way to do it here

Something that big and expensive I'd suggest a bracket attached to a metal plate: more attachment points, better distribution, and could even add a small shelf.

You should take into account that plasma is a very tricky state of matter, it tends to be rather hot and not last for long. Not sure you would want to fasten that to your wall.... ;)

I have one plasma on my wall thats been running since 2003 (running really long days). Before the plasma smear campaign it was king...after the campaign it is still king until actual LED panels show up (OLED). Manufacturers don't like plasma...expensive to make...lcd is cheap cheap cheap to make.

LOL...it did until you just made fun of me! Sometimes it takes a little poking and prodding to get the brain to operate at peak efficiency...clearly today I wasn't even close to peak!
