Mount a 75” Tv to concrete wall no parts

$150

Newtown NSW, Australia

17th Aug 2024

Hi! I just bought a second hand 2019 Sony Bravia 75” tv and I had it on top of a skinny hall table. I’ve put it on the floor for now because it looked too precarious on the table, my cat was walking behind it and I was afraid of it falling over. I think it needs reinforcement from the wall behind. The wall is concrete. It’s an old terrace house in Newtown. I don’t have any of the walk mounting parts. I’d like it to still be on the table as well. Would love for it to be done this weekend :)

Secured my tv to a wall. Was punctual.
