The first section of sheet rock has been set in place. You will note the sheet rock lifters. They did not work well for us and we resorted to just using regular shims.

Two more sheet rock sections in place. You can see the surround sound speaker outlet to the far right and an outlet in the lower center. You can also see that I missed my mark with the first Roto-Zip attempt on the outlet.

The Roto-Zip is an awesome tool for making your outlet cuts. First I plunge the tool into what I hope is the center of the outlet box. Then I trace the inside of the outlet. Once the inside of the outlet is removed I have a good guide to move to the outside of the mud-ring and go in a counter clockwise direction (to allow the bit to pull itself to the mud-ring).
