@Archking57 JUST SEEN THAT VID . GREAT WORK M8 BUT I PREFERE THE

Start nailing on one side and work across so you don’t bind the middle or
rip the arch… I always make it wider so I can trim back the sides to a
perfect fit then skim coat the whole arch with joint compound. MZ-HANDYMAN

@atranos ????

It’s not wrong, it’s a different way to do it. There are many ways to do
things brother.

FLORINOID · September 20, 2014 at 7:51 AM

the best way of doing that its to wet the back side of the plasterboard and
bend it on the arch. i’v done it like that and its much better and easier.

Usernameinvalid16 · September 20, 2014 at 7:56 AM

at 2:50 the best way to do that is screw it up there and then cut it with
sawzaw or Jigsaw.

What we have used in the past 30 years is…1/8″ peg board. With or without
the holes. Small staple gun to attach to arch and WALAHHH.

@atranos wanted to show different ways of drywalling an archway. See How to
drywall a barrel vault – We show 1/4″ being used there.

John Roselle · September 20, 2014 at 9:40 AM

try double layers of 1/4 inch flex board

The white dude said. “I’m going to show you how to drywall an arch.” He got
one hell of a tan from the intro to the drywalling portion of the video.

actorguy6 · September 20, 2014 at 10:24 AM

also try hanging the face board and rotozip the the curve…so much faster

WHATS THE NAME OF THOSE EXTENTIONS THE GUY WAS WEARING TO MAKE HIM TALLER?

eliud guillen · September 20, 2014 at 11:40 AM

I put the side walls first and cut with a router and l dont need cut from
the back when i do the side walls,and then i just put some water on the
piece what i use to the ceiling and the water makes the piece soft to put
in circle so we dont need cut the piece from the back too

walkers45331 · September 20, 2014 at 12:30 PM

you could use national brand high strength ceiling board the way it’s been
lately it bends great

Archways & Ceilings · September 20, 2014 at 12:32 PM

it is a MDF product

Kevin Smith · September 20, 2014 at 1:16 PM

@atranos you can do it that way but the pro’s do not we wet the back of
1/2″ drywall and bend it when it drys it locks it into that shape

Archways & Ceilings · September 20, 2014 at 1:39 PM

@FLORINOID totally agree see Sunbelt Builders show building booth 601to see
that method (3:25 seconds into video)

petschy9 · September 20, 2014 at 1:54 PM

Thank you Archking57! love that Rotozip!

Robert Mckinnon · September 20, 2014 at 3:31 PM

Shannon,good demo.Question. What is the length of the sheet you lifted in
your demo?

Hector Agustin · September 20, 2014 at 3:58 PM

why don’t you ever mark center lines of the studs on the sheet you’re
working on? makes life a lot easier. 

Andrew Packer · September 20, 2014 at 4:57 PM

I haven’t watched the whole video yet but i`m guessing that we will be
watching a video on how to replace glass panes in the near future….lol

Michael DiPhillipo · September 20, 2014 at 5:42 PM

What does this house look like, style, and floor plan? Could you send me a
picture.

GunsHarleysUSA · September 20, 2014 at 6:38 PM

One question Shannon, do you put the drywall screws in the same pattern in
the ceiling as you would when hanging drywall on a wall? Excellent video my
friend.

xngdestini · September 20, 2014 at 7:06 PM
