No one ever shows and explains the tiny nuances and movement's and why and what they are doing. You just did. 20+ years as a contractor and i think i can finally fill a patch better now because i now understand what look for and how to move. Load, Feather, Fill. Got it. Best drywall instruction video EVER.
I'm not a very good handyman at all but I love watching your videos and I love watching how you're human that even professionals can make mistakes and how you show how to get rid of that mistake
I have my own construction company that me and my wife run and I have been doing it for about 20 years but just in the last year I have started finishing my sheetrock and I have learned a ton of things about finishing from you thank you so much for teaching others how to finish.please keep making videos . And GOD BLESS YOU
I have been in the same house from when it was built 23 years ago. I knew the drywall and paint work wasn’t great, but when I started trying to get it ready to repaint, I have spent weeks part time just trying to get nail/screw pops and cracks fixed, mud frame out of plumb walls, and ty to float out peaked drywall joints. I had two inside corners that when I fixed numerous nail and screw pops in them actually split the paper tape in two different areas a foot and a half to 2 feet long and left a gap,needing filled and the walls needing filled as much as 5/16” on each side to get them somewhat level. I sure wish you were available in my area. I would hire you in an instant to do the rest of our home. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge in an enjoyable manner!
Haven't lately heard you say "it's not about how you put it on, it's about how you take it off." That has always been a good lesson that stuck in my mind.
Magic! Good magic. :) Nice explanations. Greetings from Roumania! Good job! I do this job at my home as a DYI for my drywalls and i find a lot of tips and tricks and all the details we should be aware of to do a great job. I work as a bartender and bowling technician in a 4 stars Complex... Between my shifts i work at home... Right now sanding one of my rooms, first coat on other and second coat in the kitchen. I'm not perfect but working my hand to improve and thank's to your videos i like the results. Thank You! ❤
I have to say, I’m learning all this in my retirement. And I thank you for explaining so CLEARLY!! I have to make friends with my trowels. I learned a bit from a painter who exclusively used hawk and knives.
Been watching your videos for some time and have not commented so here goes. Your videos have helped me drywall and mud an entire basement room and now my master bathroom. In my opinion, your tips and tricks you provide and share are the best on youtube. Keep it up and thank you!
Duno if ill ever put the tips to use lol..I just like watching other skilled tradesmen doing good work. Im in the auto repair industry myself, I refinish every vehicle that comes thru the shop.
As a DIYer for my own home I have learned a lot from you. We have some home renovation projects coming up where one is covering an out of date entertainment center and replacing it with a kitchen pantry. The other project is fixing vaulted ceiling. I bought a hawk because of watching your other videos.
Really enjoying your videos as I have a remodel going on at my son's house and a project of my own. These videos have helped me to improve my mudding skills

I've been a painter for well over 15 years...I still pick up a nuance trick almost every video. Cheers!
It’s strange, watching this man do work makes me feel accomplished.
My drywall skills have improved by leaps and bounds thanks to you Ben. Keep the videos coming. (I still hate drywall, but not as much as I use to)

You know someone is very good at what they do when they make it look so easy and simple to do you are a true master at sheetrock my friend
Appreciate all the instructions & nuances you go into. Definitely learning a lot from these videos.

Thank you for all your videos! I’m learning carpentry and have really appreciated learning from your videos along with others. Cheers from Ontario!

Thanks for the tips. Out of everything that I have done on finishing my basement, mudding has been the most time consuming.
You and the Honest Carpenter should do a collab in Zoom or Streamyard, 2 of the most humble DIYers in the YT world
I used to dread drywall and tape & texture. Now, thanks to guys like you, it is no longer unpleasant and intimidating. Thank You !
