This is going to be useful for when we begin working on a room at home!

The part about measuring for the studs was a cool tip.

I also want to add after all the drywall was hung , my buddy relayed to me
he was a drywall finisher for five years , not really a hanger as I thought

I framed my basement with a buddy after watching some of your videos , we
just drywalled it and made a big boo boo . I’ve never hung drywall before ,
and our drywall did not fall on studs . My buddy said it would be ok he did
drywall for five years . This is the ceiling I’m talking about by the way ,
the walls came out perfect . So basically I have 5/8 inch board hanging in
space on the ends . Joists are 16 inches apart . What kind of mayhem can I
now look forward to? We paper taped and durabonded the seams

I bought a used home for the first time a few years ago, and didn’t know
anything about drywall or ceilings. So, I never knew about the dangers that
were right above my cars in the garage with a horrible ceiling drywall job
(the previous owner did?).
So, last week after a good rain storm a huge section came down, smacked
into the garage opener track, then snapped the drywall section in half
hitting my car and scrathing the trunk up. YES, I was/am very mad about it.
For now as a quick fix I bought deck screws with washers and attacked every
board to make sure it will not happen again until I get someone that knows
what they are doing to make this right. As I was screwing the boards up you
could certainly tell the others were sagging and bound to fall
Obvious after learning about using glue that wasn’t done or I wouldn’t have
a section falling so easily
These videos help novice noobs like me SO THANKS!

Nails pop because over time the wood dries and tends to twist. It has
nothing to do with gravity.
Saul C. R. S. · September 11, 2014 at 2:33 AM
I thought that every time you were hanging a ceiling you were supposed to
put 5 screws on the field…

Great video!!!

When you hang a board on the ceiling and then bring one up under it at the
top of the wall is it better to have the tapered edges meet in the corner,
butt edges, or trim off one or more of the tapered edges. does this really
even matter? Would really appreciate some insight on this………..have a
great day, and thanks for the video(s)

Good video nice work
Rex Anderson · September 11, 2014 at 3:22 AM
Nice video, How long was the support 2×4 to hold up the sheet to the
ceiling.
Thanks
Frank Rubi · September 11, 2014 at 4:18 AM
Didn’t know about the glue. thanks

It depends on which version you purchased. The older versions did not come
with the drywall videos. Send me your email and order number and I will
send these to you for free.Thanks again for your purchase and good luck
with your basement project!

Thanks Henry! We wait to screw the middle of the drywall sheet because the
light fixtures stick down 1/2″ below the floor joists we are screwing into
and if we screwed the middle before we cut-out the lights we would
“blow-out” the drywall around the light fixtures and ruin the drywall
sheet! Hope that makes sense to you.. Thanks for your positive comment!

Don’t over complicate the mechanics of drywall. This is not rocket science
or brain surgery. Anything you “mess-up” can usually be fixed without to
much trouble. But… just get in there and get your hands dirty and the
rest will come! Good luck with the trade my man! Eddie

Ive never used the 2x4s to prop the drywall. Interesting. Does it ever mess
up the finished face of the drywall and create extra finishing work? Also,
I have never used any glue. Interesting as well. Will consider. Haven’t had
problems with nail pops though personally. But, I see how it can help.
BasementFinishingMan · September 11, 2014 at 6:40 AM
That thought never crossed my mind. Thanx for watching.
BasementFinishingMan · September 11, 2014 at 6:56 AM
Thanks for liking our drywall training video Rich! I’m always here if you
have any questions about the drywall project. Eddie
BasementFinishingMan · September 11, 2014 at 7:24 AM
Always perpendicular!
mervoworld · September 11, 2014 at 7:33 AM
Excellent work guys! Thanks for the info and snappy happy presentation.
BasementFinishingMan · September 11, 2014 at 8:03 AM
Get a job as a helper w/ a good general contractor and just keep your ears
and eyes open! This is how most guys in the business learn the ropes! No
College is NOT the answer for this line of work. Trade schools are good but
learning on the job is BEST! Eddie

Great video man, feel much more confident after viewing this! One question
– what’s the purpose of waiting to nail the center of the drywall until
after you rotozip the boxes?
