That was very helpful thank you! I’ve watched it a few times now. I bought a set of auto tools this last job and exactly like you said.... you want to go back to doing it by hand! By the end of the job we were just beginning to become .... well... fair at it. Regardless of how crappy we were at using the boxes properly, it got the mud on the walls for us!! Thank you again!
It makes me happy that you let him practice and were very helpful in explaining why he was failing. And the fact that it takes time too! Very helpful to watch someone else learn aswell. It's like being in a classroom environment
I am going to be getting some of these tools for working on my house. Thanks for giving me realistic expectation on how it will go when I start using them. All the videos I have seen, they are always perfect, which is unrealistic for a first timer.
He should be very thankful, you allow him to learn on site. Here in California nobody wants to teach anyone, they have a “if he learns he might be better than me and take my position”.
@@csdrywallhawaii that’s awesome, he should take full advantage and learn all he can, it’s a great trade lots of money! Keep up the content it’s great!
Hey I remember when I started doing this by my self without not one to teach me cuz the guy who show me how to do the nails didn't wanna show me more cuz didn't want to pay more. But I learned fast, and with 6 month I was he's competition and he didn't like it it all.then I built up and did exactly what are you doing now.god bless you great stuff.
Thank you for this demonstration! 🙏 Much appreciated, I just getting in to this kind of tools and yes is learning curve to be pass but thank you for the encouragement 👍
the most important thing with the nail spotter, make sure the screws are properly sunk ahead of time or you'll go through blades like crazy. Also make sure any screw misses that the paper is pushed back or cut out of the blade will catch and rip off a strip of paper. Honestly, as long as I have been doing it, I prefer to fill screws by hand. I'm just as fast. but then I started back in the 80's doing it all by hand before starting to use the taping tube and boxes a few years later.
No problem bro I suggest you start off with a 10 " box , handle and pump. Very next thing would be something to help finish the corners since those take the longest to hand coat.
Maybe even your 12 🥴🥴🥴 Your awesome and patient my friend. I worked for people where if you messed up a little they had no time to let you run any boxes. Guess what? Your the Man
Never used a nail box two reasons we use mastic and if a screw is hanging out which happens to frequently I’m sure the blade would nick my favorite box to run is the ten your a good teacher Memo in a few weeks he’ll be flying down those seams
Out of the 3 you mention I would go with columbia. Tapetech is my favorite and asgard is a cheaper version made by tape tech that you might want 5o check out
Hola guillermo saludos desde wichita falls texas.estoy a punto de comprar mis herramientas para hacer el taping.que opinas de la herramienta level 5?. Yo apenas voy a aprender a usar estos tools crees que me sirva esta marca de level 5 o cual me recomendarias guillermo?. Gracias por tus videos
Es in poco mas barata pero un poco chafa tambien yo compraria un set de Columbia o tapetech. Esta tienda es de Canada 🇨🇦 pero tiene ofertas bunenas especial pero el cambio de CAN. a USD.
Hola como estas ? Espero que bien,quizás leas este mensaje,quisiera preguntarte si me recomiendas la marca columbia? Necesito comprar unas flat box y estoy entre fat box de Columbia o tapepro,quisiera saber también si se puede llenar la caja abriendola,ya que no cuento en el momento con el dinero para comprar la pompa,yo he visto que la tapepro si se puede abrir y llenar con la espatula. Muchísimas gracias 😊
Hola recomiendo que busquies en ebay muchas veses hay ofertas buenas. Mis cajas favoritas son columbia y tapetech. Recomiendo que compress un tubo columbia con adaptador para poder llenar las cajas y aser el angulo.
At work my second coat box leaves the edges really bad, it doesn’t fade out, no matter how much I try to adjust the blade, any ideas on how I can fix it?
Sounds like the trowel bar is bent lay it flat on a level surface and look at how it reacts when changing the tension dial. A replacement piece runs about 100 at allwall. If not send it in to get serviced and that way you know you'll get taken care of.

My stance is the more he knows the less I have to do myself. 😂

Respect to those who teach.

That being tired first day running the box is very true. I'm teaching 2 guys right now and their first day they were just beat😁
Thanks so much! My flatboxes didn’t come with any instructions so this really helps me a lot.
Awesome man here to help.🤙🏽
Awesome show of patience..gotta learn somehow. Always hand taped, looking into buying tools and learning myself..thank you for the tutorial.

I wish they had these when I finished it would have saved my wrist from all the ear and tear that all them years of knifes has caused

Cool bout to get some mud boxes.
Nice video, what pump is that?.
Working after the drywallers in Toronto, you wanna run it at 0 or -1
😂😂

Holy crap, learn to punctuate.
Nice job your a good teacher could use you up in MI
Thanks brother🤙🏽
Why are they so big on level 5 in your area? I know it's important for light exposed areas. But I don't understand why the whole house gets it.
Good question I prefer a solid level 4 but 5 is good for business if the price is right.
I plan to buy flat box set which company do you recommend? Colombia, 5level or Platinium? Thanks for video!

When do drywalling pros sand after first coat or the last coat of Mudd how do one know if they Sand to far?,
Got to sand after each coat to knock down any over laps and edges. Then a final finish sand after all the coats are applied.

are you just doing two coats? 1 @ 10". 1 @ 12"? or one more?
For texture we do two 10 and 12 and smooth gets one more 14.
At work my second coat box leaves the edges really bad, it doesn’t fade out, no matter how much I try to adjust the blade, any ideas on how I can fix it?
Buy a new one🤷🏼♂️
