If you'd have told me yesterday that today I'd watch the entirety of a 17 minute video about drywall screws AND laugh with enjoyment during it, I'd have called you crazy. Well done, sir.
haha, i concur! great videos..
So true! 🤣 He was great!
Omg you just said my mind 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Laughed during the whole video. Very informative and enjoyable. Thank you.
Me too. Nice video man!
"Anything can be fixed with a hammer, and anything can be used as a hammer." Thats Blue Collar poetry right there.
Yes! I also love "Anything is a knife if you try hard enough"
Im a 65 year old woman who just repainted my huge living room, kitchen and bedroom by myself - WITHOUT TAPING, thanks to Jeff! Now it's onto hanging things onto my newly painted walls, so I really needed this one! THANKS JEFF! YOURE THE BEST!
🤩🎉👏
Jeff isn't my inspiration. Women like you are! Thanks for sharing.
This guy is amazing. I would never EVER imagine one day watching 17 minutes of a drywall video and actually like it.
If you were smoking pot you can REALLY get into watching drywall.
Same here. I'm a 72 year old woman on a pension. Can't spend money on help if I can possibly do it myself. Thank you so much!
Ditto.
I love the way how you go straight to the topic of this video instead of wasting first 5 minutes like most of youtubers.
Same! I usually fast forward 10-30 seconds to get to the video. Dude made me rewind again
yessss
And----- He didn't flip it this way, that way, the other way and every way imaginable.
Yesssss
I never thought I'd actually enjoy a video about Wall Plugs.
AGREED
when he had to use his phone to zoom in on the instructions 🥺🥺 my heart melted 🥰what a sweetheart
Here I am again...two years later...reviewing the Wall Plugs video as I try and install another bathroom fixture. Always good to remind yourself how to do it right, thanks Jeff!
the 2nd anchor he showed, was not installed properly...there are 'wings' that you can see, and they require that you have a long enough plug for the wings to be on the back side of the panel AND you need to drive the screw so that the wings expand...that means that you need to drive the screw flush to the wall, and a couple of turns more, *then* back the screw out just a turn or so, to allow for your hanging wire, or the slip-on hanger...
You have taught me so much about drywalls for a year now. I just purchased my first house and used youve taught me how to repair, repaint, replace, etc. You really do make home improvement less daunting for those of us who can’t afford to hire contractors for every little thing. Thank you 🥺
If this was 10 years ago, you'd have your own TV show! Best DIY channel on YT! Keep it up Jeff!
20+ years and he would be another Tim the tool man Taylor 😅
Wow, thanks!
He would, but once the networks got ahold of it, it would steadily go downhill. Jeff and Matt, thank you for the quality videos, keep it up!
I agree. I’m in the UK and love Jeff. Keep up the good work buddy!

I work at a big box home improvement store. I knew a decent amount about anchors before I worked there but it’s nice to see actual demonstrations of how to use them and how reliable they are. It’ll definitely help me out when helping customers pick out anchors.
Gd for you to try improve your work like that
The Home Depot has joined the chat..
Amazing that I can happily sit here eating my lunch and watch a video about wall plugs - Who needs Netflix :)
Mate, I don't have a dad to teach me this stuff. This is amazing and I can pass onto my son when he is older. Keep it up!
HI from NZ. Ex commercial builder. You are a Great Teacher. Schools need guys like you. Subscribed after 1.27min into the video. Love the humour on what people would think is a very dry subject...pun intended! Thanks.
Literally one of the best videos on UA-cam. He’s so clear and covers everything so well and the examples are great and even him describing why each one may have came out differently when he pulled was great. Articulated every thing so well. really a well done UA-cam video as far as substance goes. And then I checked the views and apparently everyone felt this also:) good job guys.
Who's gonna watch a 17 minute video about drywall screws!?
[Me, 20 minutes later with notes] ohhhhhhh.
Yep. Haha
Exactly ! How good is this bloke that after 3 mins we hadn't stopped watching !
Same! Thought I’d take the first 5 minutes.
He’s humorous, informative and keeps it going at a good pace. Are the whole thing up:)
Yeah... 15 mins to just end up with screw in to the stud.
I have found the "magic" of changing Playback Speed to (1.5 soeed is usu best for me).
I didn't realize this was an anchor management course. Holy sheet. rock.
Neither did I. The "plug" in the title made me think electrical Outlet Plug. In the US these "plugs" are called ANCHORS. But still a good video!
LOL
@@mkp58 Yes, I clicked on the video because I thought it was about electrical outlet plugs.
I guess you have to have the wit of a Brit to get this.
Very witty!
@@LFOVCF very well said, clever
I LOVE this - I always thought it was my fault that my screws in dry walls never 'took' properly. But you have shown that it was due to the products - and you have given a solution. Thank you.
First time I watched a video this long and all they did was try different wall anchors to show they all do the same thing equally well and all fail equally easy when they aren't used as intended. Educational, engaging, and entertaining. Well done!
I love this guy!! He explains things in such an adorable, and informative way! Love how he explains the dimensions and new dimensions of the stud, and electrician information.
Bwahahaha! I literally said this -word for word!- to my boyfriend! 😍🤣
Thank You Jeff. I’m a single woman and have learned so much from you. As a retired teacher special ed teacher, You get an A+ for your teaching style. Janet😊
I'm remodeling my house, mostly by myself, and you've taught me Soooo much!😊❤ This week reinstalled my toilet thanks to your tutorial and even knew to buy the flange extenders since I had added flooring😁❤ Thank you so much for your wonderful content!❤
You are my hero! I want to do all of those things too😮
I just spent 17 mins watching you talk about screws and I actually enjoyed every minute of it!
I'm not even ashamed about how much time I've spent this morning watching this channel
Haha, right?
Every single minute of this gentleman's videos are full of info. No boringness, no frustrating waste of time. I just love him.
In other videos, we have to first see their cool movie-style intro's, hear their stories, their jokes, and bad edition.
😩 I wish you were my wood shop teacher back in school! You are so awesome, made everything visually clear and I learned a lot from you! Love your sense of humor and making a boring topic feel like something cool and fun! I always wondered about different dry wall anchors cause at the end of the day it’s still just dry wall! It will bust out easy no matter what you use, I learned the length for the dry wall and stud needs a longer screw so it supports, so I feel more confident now, I’m redesigning my closet shelves and wash room shelving. Thank you for the lesson!
You’re the dad I never had to teach me this stuff. Thank you! I’m so happy I can teach my children this now and build stuff for them
My father was a telephone installer and he saved boatloads of fasteners over the decades. Several years ago he gave me a ton of those 1970s butterfly fasteners you mentioned... I was hoping you were going to show them in this video but oh well! Anyhow, great content again!
They still sell them as "plant hangers" with hooks attached. I recently wanted to swag my dining room chandelier so it would hang over the middle of my table and this is what I used.
those are awesome for centering hanging lights!
Those types are the de-facto drywall hanger here in Norway. They call them Molly Bolts. I use them all the time! In fact the plastic, non-screw types are only marketed as cement and brick plugs, not to be used in drywall.
Not '70's. They're still being made and I still use them. The big ones hold lots of weight, but you usually have to hide the big drilled hole with a washer. I've hung 50-lb mirror with them. For lighter items, I like the corkscrew-shaped ones.
Lol
So glad i found this channel! You are an ADHD person's dream for tutorials! Straight to the point and factual, love it! Thank you 🥰
Thissßs
I was thinking the same thing and I'm glad I decided to read the comments before I repeated what you posted straight out of my thoughts... of course it apparently is not mine alone.
Yes I'm not doing any work right now BUT I love these tutorials. Very thankful for EVERYTHING you have here.
Glad my dad was like you Jeff straight to the point no BS and laid out all the options for the project and what he thought is the best solution while factoring in all the other components like you
My favorite DIY guy! Hilarious entertaining and you know your stuff! Just bought my first home. I’m learning everything from scratch your videos are saving me so much time!!! 🙏🏽
Where does his accent come from? The way he says “out” is different! 😁. Oh, I just learned from Google that he is from a small town in Ontario!!!
I love how you turned this into an experiment! I'm sharing this video with my students.
This is just so smooth, and technically concise with his delivery... It's beautiful thank you 😢
This video was actually extremely helpful. Just like the last comment you couldn't tell me I would sit through 17 minutes about screws. Very entertaining keep it up.
This channel has saved me a ton of money. Currently completely remodeling my kitchen from subfloor to ceiling. Hanging new cabinets today , almost done! 😁 ..Thank you for sharing
Nice work! Cheers Trent!
How long did it take you ?
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY what's the name of that thing you used to find the right spot to drill?
@@trueheart5974 Stud finder.
sgtm7 thank you.
You look so proud of yourself after hanging off the wall, I love it!
Yes! Thank you! just glad I didn't fall on my butt!
I was withdrawn on investing in a 17min video but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute! And even subscribed. Thank you for sharing.
Just bought my first own home, with plenty to re-new, improve and fix with no idea how to do it. Thank you for helping me make less mistakes.
Enjoyed this video so much!
I DEMAND to know WHYY this was so interesting to me!
@New Dave 😂
IKR😄
Because Jeff is the Bob Ross of DYI
But what about the rest of the world that doesn't live in wood studded structures? I live in an apartment that has steel in the walls then aluminum really, what do I do?
@@willpine7343 drill through the steel and put anchors in those holes 😆😆
the guy everyone wishes was their dad
Haha I wish he were my husband!
I enjoyed your smiles and enthusiasm! Most importantly, I LEARNED!!!
I love your videos so much!!! Taking the picture of the instructions with your phone was the best! That is so me!!!
Thank you a million times over!
I've installed a lot of things and this was a must for all homeowners and high school kids too
I came to learn about electric plugs and left learning about wall anchors and how to talk like a Canadian. Thanks Jeff, now I need to go hang some pictures!
The differences between Canucks and Yanks is extremely minimal. Uneducated and inexperienced believe otherwise.
Defect Are you educated and experienced?
the difference between all people is very minimal.
I’m with you Jason...I did the exact same thing Lol. Although I’m already Canadian.
lol same here.
Your video is helpful and encouraging. Thank you for showing the comparison and the truth about drywall. Anchor’s are frustrating.
The man's just soo happy about pulling these plugs. I'm enjoying the vid.
I loved it it was very informational and it was taught in a manner that kept my attention thank you
I've learned a lot from your videos. I really appreciate your time.
Great video. I enjoyed it immensely, your humor is contagious. I learned so much about drywall and anchors. Thank you.
This was SO helpful. I have tried every anchor there is. A lot of holes to patch from trial and error. This just saved me from making a lot more!!!!!
This guy is good. I knew this info. However, he teaches
the concepts in an entertaining & informative way for people who don't.
This video as well as his other videos deserve many more likes. Amazingly helpful content. Thank you sir.
Very good video. My partner walked out in February. So far, I've put a new hasp on the garden shed, weeded a patio, fixed a bunch of stuff, and now I'm gonna hang me some guitar hooks. Thanks dude. All the way from UK!
Jeff, you get to the point quick and fast. You’re a legend. A real authority! Well played.
This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Your videos deserve more views. We appreciate you and your time.
I appreciate that!
I would have never expected myself to enjoy watching a video about wall plugs but here I am lmao I felt like I went to class and had an amazing lesson on it😂 thank you for this video! I’m planning on hanging pin boards on my wall soon so this was very educational!
Of all the tutorials I watched, your channel is the only I subscribed to! Thank you for posting and taking the time to teach us!
"Help a brother out"....i just love you honesty....never change!!!!
cheers!
What is the name of the video that shows you How to build a cover onto an existing deck?
Omg thank you thank you thank you, I was hanging shelves and getting so frustrated bc they started falling off when I put the slightest bit of weight on them, did everything text book with the anchors, thinking I’m incompetent and/or going crazy in the process bc my shelves simply would not stay put. Now I have my answer and the solution! Plus I really enjoyed this video 🤗🤗
Happy to help Jesse. Cheers!
Use bluTak iv put a shelves up on dry wall with hp laser printer
The BEST video to understand the mystery behind dry walls
Jeff is so personable and easy to understand. Thanks, so helpful! Sharing!
I already knew a bunch of stuff from my various DIY projects, but the amount of information I've learned from you guys is astonishing. Thank you, Jeff and crew, for these awesome easy-to-follow videos.
The old toggle bolts of the ‘70’s. I think during the ‘60’s and 70’s we added another ton of wight to our house with those things. Another great video Jeff!
funny how they keep trying to reinvent a perfectly good wheel >>>>I mean toggle bolt. Cheers!
Used all of these before and you are right. Education is very important the more you know the better job you do. Thanks for the video.
I have been doing the same thing you do for a long time and I sincerely appreciate your all around skills.. keep doing what you are doing
I think I just found my new favorite channel! Learned a lot in a short amount of time. Thank you!
Welcome! happy to be of help. Cheers!
I just bought my first house and HOLY MAN is this good stuff. Excellent quality, entertaining and helpful! Thank you!
I'm a 71yr old woman & these things have always been an enigma for me. You explained it very well. Now to try. Oh have to learn how to use my electric drill first! Thanks so much!
This helped me so much!
I'm moving next week, and I completely forgot to check the type of wall before I bought some shelving units.
So I was pretty bummed and didn't know what to do.
But now I have a better understanding.
Also, love your personality!
You definitely touched on a very long confusing 4 hrs I spent at the home depot for the wall anchors hardware section! I did eventually just get the #10 wall anchor kit that came w/ bit. Ultimately my math and reading all the backs lead me to the same conclusion! Except you described it better and this video at that time would’ve saved me well.... 4 hrs that day:)) thx
My thoughts exactly....made no sense.
Thank you for making this video, I have been making so many holes on my walls trying to hang a shelf and fix wobbly fixtures. The worst part is my husband can do it in seconds, yet it's been 8 months. I will be following your instructions later today. Now I need to go watch your video on how to patch up all my holes on the walls 🤦♀️ thank you again.
Gotta say your production level for your vids which was always pretty great has become the standard for me when I go to watch any educational video on the UA-cam. Thanks for the vid.
Thank you! My husband used to be brilliant at this kind of thing but can't do it any more, so I have to learn how. I am trying to put up shelves in the bathroom. I just made a whole lot of mistakes trying to following the manufacturer's instructions, and have made a huge mess. Your video is really going to help me with my second attempt. This is great information and I especially love your enthiusiasm!
Awesome video I loved it, I've struggled with this issue of trying to fix things to dry wall, (we call it plaster board in England ) I never know how to do it right or what the correct fixings are I have no prior knowledge when it comes to this type of DIY project, hence I always feel a little bit afraid, knowing that things could fall off the wall, I've decided not to attempt it on dry wall any more. Thanks for this amazing video guide, I subscribed to your channel, and I gave this a thumbs up, I definately want to hear more and will keep following the channel its terrific, real quality advice, thank you for sharing. Laura in England
Learned a lot of this stuff from my second wife. Her fist husband was a contractor. She called it "furring in" where you fill the space between studs with 2x material where we were going to hang heavy material. Sometimes we filled the gap between studs with 1/2" plywood if we did not know the precise location on a wall for a big TV mount. Grantee, you put one of those flip toggle mounts through that plywood and more then the grip on your hammer will come off in your hands before that mount will budge. BTW all of our towel racks have passed the two grand kids swinging from towels at Nana's test.
We always called it "adding backing". "Furring out" means adding paper strips to 2x4 walls before drywall to make walls absolutely straight.
Well you got me again... Good info delivered even better. Always worth the watch! 😄
I ENJOYED EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF THIS VIDEO!!!!! You sure are a great teacher😁😁😁🍎🍏
Love this guys personality, so easy to watch and learn from
Yes this man has a lovely personality
Great vid. I'm putting up shelves that have brackets at 59 and 1/2 in apart from each other so finding a stud that equal apart on both sides is impossible. At least you showed some options that can go straight into drywall that are a little bit more helpful than going straight in with flimsy plastic plugs
Better to put up a strip of plywood, mount the ply to the studs, then hang your cabinets where ever you wish.
@@rajpalfile4676 good idea
@@rajpalfile4676 how do you do that without making a mess and ripping out the wall to get access? Seems like a lot extra work?
@@MStar10 I mean put the ply on the outside of the dry wall.That way you spread the load and pick up a couple of studs. Wall plugs only hold around 30 lbs. Give or take. Depending on how far away from the stud it is.
Love these videos because I'm a single parent and I have been wanting to do these things but wasn't sure how, very smart man thank you
You are so interesting and down to earth knowledgeable, I could watch you a lot. I hope you are still on UA-cam. Thank you so much for real help. Honestly.
This is amazing! I've finally got all my pictures & canvas put on my walls without having to moan at my husband to do it 😂. Thanks mate very useful
There is one other "hollow wall fastener" sold at building product suppliers and it is called the "Snaptoggle" which would put your shoulder out on both a shear test and your pull out test. It is an improved version of the butterfly bolt and is similiar yet much better than your last fastener in your line of fasteners tested. It is also sold by one of the most common suppliers/manufacturers Paulins.
When I am hired to hang a heavy item on a drywall wall where no stud is in the best position this is my go to that holds at least a couple hundred pounds IN DRYWALL.
I found out about more than just using anchors in drywall...drill bits included with screws, lbs for screws and how to install hooks into studs!! This was very helpful as I'm trying to hang a pic (20#) into my sheetrock and now I feel equipped. Thanks for sharing this video and I look forward to seeing more of what you have to share!!
Thank you Thank you, Finally someone who explains in a way I can understand and visualize. Great Video
That was the most informative video that I learned nothing new on. I just really like his videos. He’s like a modern day Bob Vila except more practical and actually has more personality than cardboard! Love these videos Jeff! Keep it up
I really took a lot from this, literally on my way to the hardware store. First time home buyer and recent diy'er lol... Wish me luck
You are gold brother, I couldn’t count the videos of yours I’ve watched and you’ve saved me time and money not to mention the know how!!
This video is sooooooooo underrated!!! this is so informational that the noob DIY'er in me feels confident I'd be able to do my fixtures correct!!! Thanks!!!!
Wow, you taught me so much in so much time.
Glad I could help!
You're the coolest, Jeff! Learning a ton of tips and tricks.
You’re videos are fantastic. I’ve learned so much. Thanks!
An absolutely great video! I know nothing about building, fixing etc but wanted to install a curtain rod. This was so helpful!
This guy is a legend! Thank u!
Commenting because the YT algorithm assumes people don't like a thing if they don't like and comment. Thanks for the video mate.
Cheers George!
Discovered this channel when I most needed it and boy am I not disappointed ! Great stuff
Just beautifully done. Explained very well. Thank you.
