To mount a 35lb wood framed antique mirror, I got 4" long concrete screws on recommendation from someone. They're 200lb load screws by a country called Cobra. The wall is above a non-working fireplace and has half an inch of plaster followed underneath by concrete or possibly brick (we're not sure). Looked more like concrete, not really red.So that's about 3" of the screw that are in the concrete, 5/8" of that is only in plaster and there's about a 1/4" sticking out and kind of hovering in a slightly oversized drill hole. I don't know how to include photos. I'm not gonna fill those bits because the spackle won't do anything to help hold the screw anyway. The mirror has thick plastic shielded cabling on the back fastened with D-loops to the wooden frame.My only question really is, can I hang my mirror? Should I try to get something on the screws like washers? The cable is never gonna move, we're not likely to get any seismic activity here in Quebec City. via /r/DIY http://ift.tt/2tKlTXJ
