I don't buy it either. It's a sad day when our so called law makers have it
set up so a store can be sued for selling a tool to someone who was
incompetent to use it, and the same store can be sued for refusing to sell
it, as well. Too many laws, too many lawyers.

I wouldn't do it but it will depend on how you are going to attach the wall
paneling. A 2 by 4 on the flat will have a lot of spring in the middle. It
will be almost impossible to drive nails. If you are planning to use screws
it may not be so bad.

Thanks for the update. Vita Mix is recommending the 5200
series for household use. It currently sells for $459.00I
have seen other models on Amazon E Bay. I don't think you
can get the free in home 30 day trial from the store.

You could do that but I think you will be surprised at how much deflection
there is in a stud sideways on. This also means movement and maybe more sound

I'd stay away from metal. The point would no doubt start but the flutes are
pretty flat at the end and it would have to bore through the metal instead of
drill through it.

It won't hurt anything going that way. Again it isn't a weight bearing wall.
And it would sure be easier to find the studs for screwing on the drywall.

I kept looking at the thing trying to figure out if it was right, but it
