No Trim??? How to Achieve the TRIMLESS WINDOW Look Using Drywall!
No Trim??? How to Achieve the TRIMLESS WINDOW Look Using Drywall!
This video will show you how to use drywall to create a modern, trimless look around a window in your home.
I'm finishing the basement in our 40-year old home, and videoing each step along the way in a future bedroom. I am NOT a pro - just a self-sufficient DIYer finishing my basement on a budget. I've leveled the concrete and converted an old garage door threshold into an exterior door and window, built walls, and ran wiring. I could totally hire a pro to come in and finish this room for me, but why hire it out when I can build it on a budget myself???

      Can't get a good finish sand with a pole sander. Sanding sponges work well if you are a proficient mudder. I might wet-sand in a pinch with missed small repairs. But not by volume or new drywall. If you're not extremely careful while wet-sanding, you can remove the edge and create a hump or a "muffin". Which will be noticeable when viewing from an angle after priming or painting.

    • @mancyclediy

    • @mancyclediy
      @mancyclediy Місяць тому

      Hi there! Nope, you should not. It’s not good practice to intermingle wire gauges on the same circuit. Also, the 12 gauge wire likely came from a 20 amp circuit, but 14 gauge wire is only rated for a 15 amp circuit. This means that the breaker would allow more electricity than the wire was safely able to carry, which can be a fire hazard.

    Hey, thanks for your video. I found it actually looking for the answer to a different question, but maybe you know the answer, I was trying to wire a standard 3-prong plug to 14/2 gauge solid wire. However, for the two plugs I bought the instructions say "STRANDED COPPER WIRE ONLY!". It is not clear to me why only stranded copper wire, but I tried to find plugs for solid copper wire without success. Any Ideas? (By the way, I love Wago connectors!)

      Hey friend, thanks for checking out the video. Man, I’ve never seen plugs for stranded copper wire only. All standard plugs I’ve seen work perfectly for 14/2 Romex. Silly question here, but sometimes the writing is pretty tiny on those plugs. Is it possible it says “standard copper wire” instead of “stranded copper wire”? If so, your 14/2 will work just fine.

    It is virtually impossible to NOT have butt joints somewhere. Hang it horizontally for ease of mudding. Think about the 'old days' of plaster and lath. Think of the drywall as the 'lath'. One could also consider the first coat of plaster aver the lath as the 'drywall as well. Additional coats of plaster were the 'finish'. For a totally smooth wall, the plasterers would use a brush to 'splash' water onto the surface and dry trowel the surface. Hanging horizontally reduces the amount of 'high' work as well as 'low' work. The majority of mudding will take place at about 4 feet off the ground. With the occasional butt seam going to the ceiling and to the floor (make sure you 'stagger' these joints!!). For the final finish to avoid 'waves' get a large pan and a wide squeegee (yes a bit more cost to the job, but well worth it even if you never do mudding again.). Mix regular mud with water to a pancake batter and roll it on the wall with a heavy roller (use an extension pole to make it really easy) and then smooth it with the squeegee. It takes some practice to not get messy, but it works very well. After the mud is dry, a very light sanding will do (I also recommend renting a power sander).

    this only really applies in the US . In Australia, we hang it vertical.

      I like it better vertical anyway :)

    Another approach is to cut a 1" strip of the paper off each side of the butt joint. It leaves a 2" recessed space about the same thickness as tape. Blends quite easily.

      Dude - that is a useful suggestion. Thank you!
