This job was little different. We had to rebuild this will to accomodate a circle inside of a square.
The wall previously was covered with rock which we removed before reframing and drywall.

looks good........
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
Wow. How did you protect that nice red paint job while the rest of the wall was going in?
Blue tape.Actually, I wouldn't even have tried.That's what touchup paint and small brushes are for.;o)
Yeh... That'll work.
We covered the red paint with kraft paper, installed the drywall and circle, and then used an xacto knife to cut around the square and circle. Both the square edges and the edges of the circle are lifted slightly off of the red part, which allowed us to cut slightly behind the visible edge. We then carefully caulked the edges and touched up with white paint.
