Venting Frustration
by

Working crown molding around the living room, I hit a snag I had known all along was going to be a real problem. This vent was smack dab in the way, no avoiding it.
I find it odd that I started installing while still lacking a coherent strategy for dealing with the inevitable horror of the impending collision. Heck, I even started installing the molding before I could find a the replacement vent cover. Here's where the online DIY community is so great. I posted a question on Hometalk.com, hoping for some ideas and options from fellow DIY'ers.
They came though with great ideas. Catch the whole story on the blog. Link at the bottom.

Tim D. (The Retro Den) on May 18, 2014Great idea but why not just bust the drywall and lower the vent by an inch or so?
