That&#8217;s never worked for me. I wish it did, I&#8217;d spend less time resetting studio spaces.<\/p>\n<p>On the plus side, it was a good time to change around art. I rotate pictures and such in and out so I don&#8217;t get too tired of them. Korra and Toph survived this round, and even got frames, and the Utena art I found at ECCC finally made it onto the wall. Plus I built a little shrine to our favourite Russian Jaeger pilots. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/49137279@N07\/19659306043\/in\/dateposted-public\/\">Bigger pictures at Flickr<\/a>, like usual.

Those are part of the new wall anchoring system. I had a baffle come down while trying to put a speaker away, and that sucks, so I fixed it. Plus, that let me put like three support legs into the closet, opening up more space and getting rid of distracting visual noise.
