NORTHSTAR DRYWALL FLAT BOX WITH LEVEL5 SKIMMING BLADE | Drywall Finishing Construction Series #15

[@bilderrecinos3116]

All that they have done, I would have done it in a month, excellent teamwork

[@briannelson4122]

I'm doing a job right now that the glue used to install 1/2" drywall on a ceiling (along with 1-3/8" nails ,the norm back in the mid to late 70's here in SoCal) has now FAILED!! The ceiling is falling down, in fact HAS fallen down in one area. This to me proves there is a need for mechanical fastening too, more than just "till the glue dries".

[@12yearssober]

It’s possible that they waited too long after applying the glue to hang the boards. I have seen that before. If the glue begins to cure before they hang the board the adhesive will not work. The ones that are applied then board hung immediately will hold great.

[@GADRYWALL]

Nice clean job!! Very professional!!!

[@gligorije31]

Thay do construction sites no worry for making any mass that is like 20% less for prep for normal painters good job guys

[@chodge8366]

guess the crown molding covers the ceiling/wall gap???

[@drywallgangsters]

Yes but it's called cornice in Australia though and it's made from gypsum like the plasterboard and gets glued on

Nice work guys.

Are the lights and outlets cut out later in the process? A little different than USA

[@gman8557]

Looks good guys. You have a good system. Tell your hangers... start the stairwell with a two foot rip or 610mm , And then there will be no need of an expansion joint ✌️

[@Maxkil]

builder needs the expansion joint where the 1st and 2nd levels meet,

[@gman8557]

@@Maxkil that makes sense. That’s a practice here in the states on commercial jobs to use expansion joints between floor. And any continuous wall or ceiling over 30 feet or 9.14 meters. Typically in hallways of apartment, hotels etc... Residential homeowners usually do not want to see expansions. I’ve seen on a couple videos of yours, long sheets loaded on the floor. What the length of those sheets? We use 16’s (4.88m) here

Whats the sprung part i don't get. Its a plaster cornice we install

@@Maxkil "Crown moldings, also called sprung cove moldings, are the decorative trims used to cover the seam where ceiling and wall meet. got that off Google. hey your crew is excellent, will be searching for your install of the plaster cornice. thanks for the response and the vids

[@priceandpride]

How does that shoulder feel at the end of the day?

[@drywallgangsters]

It's actually fine atleast at the 10 year mark these Northstar boxes are quite easy to run. Some others you gotta press a bit harder if you don't have the mud super watered down which we don't like but these boxes are very easy to push and the mud comes out super easy even if it's a bit thick

[@markhuru]

Yellow food color? Just to indicate 2nd coat?

[@zachwiegel1860]

Does everyone wipe down after using flat boxes... I understand feathering but doesn't the box do that already

[@WyattEmge]

Box always leaves to ridges on the edges. You can either wipe down or sand after but I try to do minimal sanding

[@WyattEmge]

What do u guys use to scratch externals

[@Maxkil]

Tungsten scraper

[@jeffwindover9916]

Not sure why u need to wipe those flats ...I just set proper crown and alls done with one swat...maybe because I use machine mud?!

[@abelolvera4613]

I was thinking the same thing. Just doing twice the work. Imagine how much faster they would finish if they did it right!

How much time do you estimate that box saves you per room?

[@kennethclayton7588]

So much time. I can run 10,000 foot of board . Every single flat in the house . In 2 hours sometimes less. To better answer your question tho I imagine I could finish an entire room vs finishing one flat or two by trowel

[@anthonyfrade5203]

its faster and better looking

[@RobertDarling-eb2lv]

Thanx for the heart.😂

[@Maxkil]

Haha, you're welcome. 👌

[@keithmcevoy4744]

What tool is the guy using to cut the rock back for the corner bead?

[@derekmoody9641]

Also interested!

[@jamesgrundy6916]

you guys follow up with a second base coat or just set the paper very low and try to get it perfect get it perfect with the second pass? always done three and have done two on some small jobs from time to time and haven’t noticed tracks or anything. cheers

[@drywallgangsters]

The coat in the video is a 10" box with sheetrock total lite and the next day we run a 12". So our process is we tape/bed it with base 90 and then run the 10inch the same day unless it's a big job. Then the following day we run a 12"

[@jamesgrundy6916]

drywallgangsters never thought of that, nice stuff fellas

[@tomprovan50]

Hi do you use an applicator with base 90 or by hand

[@camronballantyne2585]

Nice work clean and tight. Tis a small job and alot of guys though. Lucky you dont have top angles to do and three ways. Im sure that people need to know how to do angles the most as tgey are most important

[@TheToysforboys]

3 nails in the field on a 12' sheet. that's quality right there.

[@wiseydub]

Watch their other videos You will understand why

[@shawnsmith3657]

They glue. Those screws are to hold the rock until the glue dries.

Where you from that you have never seen a glued sheet but been at it ling enough to make a comment

[@mjhrpgiv]

@@quinnycoleman7214 that wouldn't pass code in Pennsylvania. I hung and finished for 12 years. Glued and screwed everything.

[@Heli4213]

Why is the mud Yellow??

[@12yearssober]

What do you use in the corners?

[@WhiteStrike01]

What the point of the guy wiping in behind the box? Lol. Just set your box on a tighter setting...

[@drywallgangsters]

Don't have any scraping or sanding before next coat. That guy sets up the plank and ladder for the stairwell areas just so everything is seamless. He also touches up any bad parts of the joints by hand. Also alot of people box the joints twice if they don't wipe behind so this way is easier for the box runner as he's doing half the work and also easier on the boxes they aren't getting worn down as quickly. If you work alone it would make sense not to wipe behind.

[@yeldarb8797]

Oh how nice that would be, no outlets. An 1/2” board probably. I think they’re in Australia

[@drywallgangsters]

Yes in Aus. Outlets are flush with the timber frame not the board so the boarders just knock out small holes for the electricians to cut out after we're done That's why it's hard to see where they are
