Wood or aluminum 2X4's?
I think I just learned the hard way after trying to hang a heavy wall object that there are no wood studs used in my walls. I located studs using my edge finder (not 16" on center either) but my wood screws did not bite. I made a mess of the wall. It is an interior wall and not load bearing and my house is stucco/cinderblock. Poking around the edge of a electrical wall switch box it feels like a metal stud is adjacent and not wood. Is this the case with houses built here or at least circa 2010?
