I this video I'm truing up the walls to be able to hang substrate for tile and drywall. The West "left" wall was 1 1/4" out of plumb and I had to build out the bottom plate. I added a strip to the sill and sistered 2x3s to the existing studs. The North (right) wall was 3/4" out of plumb leaning the opposite way. The existing framing in the corner was hobbled together with multiple boards some of them partial.
one of the wedges I cut on my shop bandsaw, and had to rip a 2x4 down to 1 1/2" x 1 1/4" (dimensional). I use the circular saw to cut a half inch notch out of the bottom plate extension.
I'm showing my technique for sistering studs, shimming with custom cut 2x4 wedges and using drywall shims to set myself up for plumb walls and a successful tile job.
Watch my previous videos to see the process I take to make a beautiful shower.
