[@oldskoolwayy]

Best example corner tutorial ever, he made it super simple and got some great clear shots..very helpful

[@rydr911]

I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package kzbin.infoUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.

[@jenniferoviawe]

Finally congratulations you officially helped me to understand the drywall placement in a corner. I think people var off to talk about the arrangement of the corner and not the placement of the drywall after the corner is completed

[@ericaikens5339]

You are absolutely correct at least you took time out to show the people one piece of wood makes a difference if placed in the right position because every piece has a purpose this is what hinders people from rushing and have to come back later and adjust that one move is the correct mole to keep moving forward it is not a waste it is what needs to happen thank you for this video I'll be able to show my nephew this so that he will get an understanding of what I tried to show him keep the videos coming you are a fair and just person you help people not make mistakes thank you once again

Crystal-clear explanation. Thank you!

[@christophersotelo8910]

This is the video I was looking for straight to the point thank you

[@swift-o]

it serves its purpose and looks like a good corner to me, I'd do it too. it's not a load bearing wall, just an added room/space, also shouldn't have the need to run electricity around the corner if you know that you don't need to in the first place. Great job Geo, I like it!

[@funkytownsfinest1528]

Look up the Perkins brothers they explain how to measure a wall correctly this is not what they explain I believe he is measuring wrong.

[@MyHuntingJournal]

@@funkytownsfinest1528 He's not measuring wrong, but the layout is most definitely not what a proffesional would do.

[@charlotte97838]

That is the exact explanation I needed. Thank you so much for doing this video. I’m putting drywall on the inside of my shed and it didn’t have those corner studs because the shed maker didn’t think people would finish the inside. And I was putting up my wallboards to see how it was going to fit I come to the corner and thought something was missing and then I try to rack my brain is to figure out how to do that. So now that my brain hurts, LOL, you have helped me out a lot. Thank you again.

[@shirvy]

Excellent video, short, simple, to the point, well done and thank you 👍🏼👍🏼 this actually cleared a lot up for me

[@MudRFunR]

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. Simple and to the point.

[@jorger2583]

Excellent! Tell these people that you need a corner stud. Oh my gosh how many times have I installed drywall and there is no corner stud. I have to stop what I am doing to do someone else's job and install another 2 x 4 and then go back to my job. Maybe we should get the complainers to install drywall so that they can experience the same frustration. I would love to see there reaction. Great advice!

[@celestinomartinez4572]

[@TheGenerationX894]

Yeah and the electricians need room to pull wire through three corner studs, this way is not correct. Double stud the outer wall at end, single stud the inner wall, when the corners come together and get nailed, the wiring, insulation and drywall all have what they need.

[@jacobkeith2132]

Thank you! The drywall tip was very helpful

[@pedrorojas6934]

Excellent explanation,I love the video,thanks for sharing.

[@OffgridManiac]

this video was great it was just what I was looking for I'll be framing in a interior wall soon that will be a twelve foot 90 degree that turns around a corner and ends just to obstruct view of the interior room when the door opens

[@LBCTITAN]

It took me two hours to find this great video done by you. I want to make a temporary wall with a door entry, but couldn't figure a way to make a 90 degree turn. Thank you.

[@LBCTITAN]

Hey Geo, I tried your method today. I bought (1) 1" x 2" x 8' stud used to make a model for the wall. 1" inch = foot The model came out exactly as you said it would and I was able to attach my fake drywall (paneling) to the outside and the inside of the walls. I feel good about this. I'm going to make a temporary 90 degree wall wall with an opening held together with pocket hole screws. Instead of drywall, I'm just going to use some paneling.

[@ThePhungchithanh]

you're genius. awesome idea

[@snwlcke3]

Nice explanation and it is a proper corner and definitely works for your small area there. But you should really have the two (L) studs on the same plate or on a big job once you have that wall up, you'll never be able the build the inside one and lift it up

[@carmineredd1198]

geo is an idiot

[@mobaumeister2732]

I was thinking the same thing. This is wrong on many levels When you’re framing larger walls, you typically want to frame each wall separately on the floor and them raise them into place, but with corner studs that overlap onto other base plates this becomes a nightmare, also the frame won’t have proper structural strength when being raised.

[@patrickperry6945]

That generally isn't the way that's done. However, for a nonbearing partition wall that's fine. You don't even need to use a 2x for that. A 1x is good enough.

[@markuslappalainen6847]

You can build a corner with 3 studs. One on the outer corner and then attach drywall sheet to it from inner corner side. So it comes through the wall. After that attach second stud over the drywall. It can also be half of stud and in line with inner corner.

[@jfarinacci0329]

Very good. I'm from Brazil and here there is no woodcut, our buildings are only made of concrete and I need to do a small woodcut project and I couldn't find help and then I found your video, which I can translate into my language for me to understand, thank you... . .

[@rty1955]

Yoy have described a "California corner" some codes dont allow this type of construction. A California Corner allows insulation to be placed in the corner, where as a typical corner does not. Its best to consult a contractor or your local building office to see what's legal in your area

[@snoopyredbaron8761]

That was very usefull info as first time diyer.. Thanks

[@gurpreetsaini5148]

You solve my problem, thanks

[@NewbArchitect]

Also if used in exterior applications you can insulate more efficiently.

[@arturinramirez8738]

Cool video

[@youshouldread]

If you are framing an exterior wall, this is the best way to frame it. Unless you use 3 studs nailed side by side, which doesn't give you much room to screw drywall. This way gives you a way to insulate the wall.

[@RealisticSurvivor]

I'd turn the third stud at 90 degree to the left, thus create the same wall structure as it's on the right side. Thus you can get insulation behind the stud and you have a greater surface area to install drywall.

[@phantomcreamer]

It's an interior wall, superior insulation is much less important.

[@user-rb6yj5op4g]

you are the best

[@DLTD]

So that’s how I should have done it. Lol Dope

[@oldfart5063]

its amazing when people try to reinvent the wheel and aren't able to . there is a correct way to frame a corner and thats not it . the outside wall would have two studs and the inside wall would have a single stud at the end . that allows you to stand the wall to the other wall quickly and easily . same amount of studs but way faster .

[@pryme2013]

That’s a very common corner, it’s a California corner and he’s not reinventing anything.

[@fakawat7220]

California corner.. yup they made it themselves 😏

[@oldfart5063]

[@cheesesyrkyer5290]

No, you should turn that stud back to back like the other one on the inside corner in order to have enough area for the inside panel.

[@dalewillis8191]

There are solid corners and California corners. California corners are all about getting insulation into the corner.

[@donaldpittssr367]

With a solid corner you don’t need insulation. It’s actually more tight than insulation because air can’t penetrate thru it. This corner that is shown in this video cause a weak corner that can easily crook. We call this corner a jackleg corner.

[@illestofdemall13]

@@donaldpittssr367 The R rating can be higher with a California corner because you can get more insulation into it. Wood isn't a great insulator.

[@kllgrogto5838]

@@donaldpittssr367 those two walls are sharing a stud!! Did anyone else saw that? I don't think that's the way to do it os it? It's like a California corner but WRONG

[@daytradingnl4734]

That second stud you don’t need. Just attach the drywall in the innercorner on too that same first stud you also attach the outer drywall too. Then take third stud you showed and attach it through the inner drywall with the first stud. Less work and material at every corner.

[@mariogatica2363]

This method defer from old school corner, it is called a California Corner...as you said allow you to secure all your dry wall, but also, in case this was a wall of the side of the house, this California Corner allow you to insulated all the way to the corner, with out a blind spot as old school did.

Interesting never seen it done like this before

[@ripp332]

California corner. Basic framing technique for drywall purposes as well as strength. Mainly drywall since the wall is not old bearing.

[@huejanus5505]

Doesn’t have to be a full stud to catch the drywall. A 2x2 or similar can be tacked on for the drywall.

[@diggingupnorth3453]

[@davidvalenzuela1587]

Many ways to frame a wall and this is one. Good job and don't pay attention to all the negative pricks out there.

[@jimweaver7592]

It's not a good job.

[@Jay-tk7ib]

Frame your through wall all the way out, meaning there's a stud on the end, the normal way. Then another stud goes on the inside of the end stud, but turned the other way (laid flat on the platform when the wall is laying down). Now the regular stud that's on the end of your butt wall automatically makes the third stud in the three stud corner. Probably nothing wrong with doing it as the video shows, but it's much simpler the other way.
