    Great idea! My project already has drywall but unfinished back, so it's even easier. I'm going to use those adjustable boxes, the depth can be adjusted with a screw. Never used them before, but that might work for thick walls if you change your mind or something.

    I found this video very helpful for cutouts in wainscoting panel! I got confused a moment & thought you made 2 boxes 😂Figured out you removed it off the video! Very clever sir!!

    You can also put chalk on the outlet box or some paint put the board against it and it will mark your spots.

    Would a 40lb earth magnet work?? I saw some 100lb but I may have trouble pulling off the paneling.

      Amazon. The ones i used were made to rivet to things. I know some of these magnets are used on trackers that are on the containers from rail cars. They are then pulled by tractor-trailers. I hope this helps 🙂

    Why didn’t you move the boxes out before you covered them with the siding so you can put the white cover over the electrical outlet again

      I have a weight bench right beside that wall plug. In the past the bar from preacher curls have busted the plate when it would hit it. I left it in the wall to prevent this. I didn't show it in the video, but I made that wall panel easily removeable to service the plug if needed.
