Spent three hours on a weird corner that should have taken twenty minutes

It was a retrofit in an old house where the existing framing was out by over an inch. Ended up having to sister in a new stud and custom cut a bunch of small filler pieces to get it straight. Anyone have a faster fix for a corner that's just completely out of whack?

I used to fight with stuff like that for hours... but honestly, those cedar wedges people are talking about are a game changer. Just tap them in until it's straight and call it a day.

Just shim the whole thing with cedar wedges.

Cedar wedges are the only way to go, honestly.
