    Perfect video of showing exactly how to put up alone other videos I’ve come across used drywall lifts just spending unnecessary money but thank you for this video 😊

    That’s a damn good idea! Wow. Even having 2 people, this way with putting in screws first is definitely a time saver

      right? I was going to buy a glue gun and a lift and a T square, but now I am going to do it this way for a tuffshed 10x12 building. I hope he has one on the ceiling that is the only thing is I have to lift it up by myself, I am female, but strong LOL appreciate the money I will save by looking at one LAST video before deciding to go buy the 3 items listed above.

    Just a tip for beginners, The sheet must be measured from the corner to the center of the last stud. 3/4 inch is the center.

    I have never seen a hanger set his t square against the wall with the t at the top. The get tweaked out of square surprisingly easy. I also have never seen a hanger mark the stud out with a pencil, but it is probably a good idea. Most hangers just put a few nails along the top of the board. Hold the board to the ceiling and nail to hold the board into place, then screw off the sheet. I was never as accurate as I wanted to be and had a lot of misses. Oh well

    Great video! I like the idea of starting the screws in the drywall. Why did you place the drywall the top of the wall? Is that easier than starting at the bottom? Did you use a drywall screw setter on your impact? Thanks for posting your video sir

    • @handymadman
      @handymadman  3 роки тому +5

      Always start at the top and leave a space at the bottom! Moisture can wick up into the Sheetrock and create issues! No dimples I just stop when it’s good! Thanks for watching!

    @samuelginnings628 3 роки тому +1

    Woulda been a lot faster when you were starting your screws if you woulda just butted the piece into the wall and used the studs in the wall as your layout for starting your screws rather than laying it out with a tape

      Always start at the top. We want a nice tight fit at the top and it hold the ceiling. We also need to keep it off of the floor to avoid wicking up moisture
