Vantage Point AXWG-01S Extra Shelf - Silver for AXWG-03S Review

I ordered two of these and have them installed into the wall in my home theater.One holds my projector and the other holds whatever component is being projected (Xbox, Wii, Laptop, Ps3).At first it seems weird to set them up with the rounded end against the wall and the square end pointing out, but it actually does work better that way.

Since there are only two points where this attaches to the wall, it DOES rock sideways a little bit.Actually it's more of a rotate, but you know what I mean.Getting the mount perfectly level is a lot more difficult that you'd think.

Also, once the shelf is fully installed, it DOES tilt DOWN, and is not square with the wall.That's just the way it is.Normally that's not a big deal, but it was a big deal for me, because I have my projector sitting upside down on it for an inverted-front-projection and across about a 10 foot throw the image dropped about 6 to 7 inches more than it should have.

I had to mount this into a wood stud with the screws it came with (behind 2 layers of drywall).I had initially bought some 50-lb drywall anchors and used those to hold the shelf with my projector on it, but as I was setting everything up the shelf started tilting forward and the top anchor pulled right out of the wall.The weight was not the issue -- it was the torque (twist away from the wall around the bottom of the bracket).I caught everything in time, and want my lesson to be served as a warning to others -- DO NOT try mounting this directly into drywall unless you have the mounts that expand in the empty space behind the drywall (and if you don't know what that means, then just don't try it at all).

NOTE TO NEW PURCHASERS:Do NOT install the top plate before attaching the bracket to the wall!You will have a loose and slightly less unstable connection.
