@Nestrs Жыл бұрын
@@rickanthony8259 well, I may need more detail to give you proper advice. If this is a garage or hanger you may want to consider stacking the drywall from the ground. However, I would use purple board if you’re resting on concrete as moisture can be absorbed into the Drywall from the ground. You can also consider hanging it vertically depending on the ceiling height. Hanging it horizontally hides imperfections in the walls a little better because you stagger your butt joints where as vertical boards will break on the same stud. If you have a somewhat standard ceiling height, then I would just stick to the original game plan and start with the ceilings.

Use an x bit for Roto zip. And you need to go counter clockwise for cutting out can lights(outside of light/box) and clockwise for the inside. Also no need to mess with outlets. Just mark the top of the box so you don't hit and damage the outlet.
@Nestrs4 жыл бұрын
Daniel Morrill 👍🏼 thanks for the comment and actually that would be the best advice for beginners. Most projects will not have outlets at this stage and as long as you have a quality box you are not going to hurt it. Stopping to precisely measure to the outside of the box will slow you down and may require you to tape around the box if it is not perfect. Mark the center with your knife and keep moving.

drywalling where rooms will have a drop ceiling, therefore the ceiling won't be first. Considering this (only walls are getting drywall) is there still an advantage to putting the top 4' of the 8' wall board on first versus just working from the bottom up? I am not concerned if the final height of the drop ceiling is exactly 8' or if I have to make it 7'-10" or 7'-11". IF it is OK to put the bottom board in place first, should that board still be lifted slightly? If so, how much.
@Nestrs5 жыл бұрын
Tom Brizzi Thanks for the question. If it were me, I would still hang the top piece first. I guess it really doesn’t matter if you buy a piece of j-bead to slip on the top edge of the drywall. It will hide any cut edges you have and creates a finished edge that will butt up against the drop ceiling framing. For me, it’s always easier to hang the top piece and cut the bottom board if needed. The gap will be covered by your baseboard. The last time I stacked drywall (many years ago) was for a commercial space with a room that had 20’ high ceilings. Hope that helps!

Thomas Bridges I would recommend doing it the new way 😂😂😂. While hanging vertically reduces butts joints, it increases linear seam footage. More importantly horizontal hanging hides uneven studs and ensures a smoother appearance. That’s why you only see drywall hung vertically in basements, garages (not mine 😀) and commercial spaces due to fire code.

definitely do the insulation- makes it more soundproof

ashfaaq inventor it’s all about your preference and how you are going to use the space. If you want to dampen the sound add some sound proofing insulation. As far thermal insulation is concerned only exterior walls are needed. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment.

Read comments?… read them… 1. What size screw for 5/8 on ceiling? 1 1/2? 2. Can I make a kicker? 3. What is best for muddin’ , spade or 15 in 1, floater? 4. What grade grit sandpaper for the smoothing? 5. Do you recommend scaffold alternatives… for high ceilings? Mahalo

2m in and I'm hiring a contractor. Just the long list of tools and the 8ft level was enough. Thank you guys for showing me my limitations. Can I still wear the T-shirt though? (I think so).

Don’t you want to go counterclockwise and not clockwise with the rotozip/spiral saw?

How do you break drywall perfectly??

Hey Helaman Gile - First, I score the front of the board with a blade using a T-square. Then, snap the board and score the back paper with the blade. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment!
