8" opening isn't much room to get your head and shoulders in to do any work......unless you're a little person.

Gary,

I have a couple pieces of 1/2" greenboard if you want to save some money. You could stop by and pick them up.

 

[mbg75]

Looking good, u decide on which 90?

 

[garys reef]

i wish i new that about two days ago i was short i 4foot by 27 " piece i got lucky though homedepot had a damaged piece they gave me for 2 bucks
