I bought special drill bit for tiles. After I finished two holes, the drill bit became just a metal rod. The tip habis koyak
But I was using a normal drill last time. Took very long just to drill two holes

Bought some wall plugs but length not same.
From left to right - S10, S12, S10 (came with wall mount), 10mm bolt (came with wall mount)
Too tired to try today. Maybe wait till weekend.

Ok so I got a bit of time today so I continue my tv mount job. Drilled 4 more holes and they are still off!!! OMG what's wrong with this thing?!??!

They were ok but once you tightened up the screws it will senget. There is no tolerance play at all! I tried drilling the metal plate but it's too hard!

Arrgghh....so frustrated

This is the best I can do. Still using 3 bolts. I ain't going to mess with it any longer. 😖

dunno man, i sked liao. i still got one more to hang. i marked it and drill accordingly but when the bolts are tightened, the whole thing lari....

Cannot. There is no play at all. Once the bolt is in, that's it.
Anyway I'm done with this one.

I'm worried about the next one. I still dunno what went wrong, which means there is a great possibility that I will screw up again in the next TV mount.

That's the thing, lucky I didn't drill into the metal cause they didn't supply me with any washers

after a long break and constant nagging from my boss, i finally decided to do part 2 today.

success this time (ok la almost 100%)
its a little off nia -



This time, like the last time, I follow every step to the teeth. The only difference is this time I sat down and look straight into it instead of standing and looking at where I want to drill. Yes, a little bit is enough to throw the whole thing off.
I drilled one hole, put in the screw all the way, marked the next hole with, not a pencil this time but the screw itself so I know it will go in center. Then take off the screw and drill, then repeat for each hole. The difficult part is screwing and unscrewing each bolt. I can't use my power driver cause not enough torque. Have to use man power. My muscle ache liao. Dunno why so difficult to go in and out.

Drill first hole already made mistake....sigh. Drilled into a metal beam I think. Ok never mind, drilled another hole. All in 5 holes drilled with 4 screws. Better than the last time definitely hahaha....

But in the end still senget a bit. I don't care liao, I consider putting 4 screws in a success liao.
Now got to pray the boss no see senget only

Ok thats it. My DIY is all over. Now I need 3 strong men come help me lift my tv

About 35kg. It's a 65inch plasma
LCD will be lighter

Today I got some strong men helped me carry and mount it. Very sad to see its senget about 5cm 😞
Dunno why off by so much. Could it be the screws moved under the weight?
anyway I'd made a mistake of not adjusting the bracket to offset the wall plate level which is off

Yes I used plastic wall plugs. No need metal la, this is not hanging off the ceiling but the wall

Can see or not the sengetness?

I can see lor. I'm very sensitive to sengetness

Correct on both counts

This is on the tv itself -


I measure my tv cabinet, it's also slightly off level

Who? Me?
Panasonic TH-P65ST60

I think can adjust but I need strong men again. Susah man

Thank you sir. I baru installed. Been sitting in the box for one year now

No space for table top

what to do...delayed delayed

Loose wire will be hidden later on

Can see the trunking or not? Painted same color as the wall.
If I put bigger center speaker then it will be further hidden

My question wasn't really to ask whether can see or not but to point out to see the trunking
Of course I know can see la....
