    For all of you that criticize him for mot using a corner bead roller and a hopper, this video is intended for home owners. people that have never done this rype of work, will never do it, except for the few sheets of drywall they're taping at home. These homeowners have mo idea what a corner bead roller or a hopper is. So, if you're a "professional " which I highly doubt, keep your comments to yourself and give this man some prop. I'm a professional union taper for 29 years. I can put up to 75 sticks of bead in and an hour, but I'm a professional and not going to sit here and criticize this man because his doing a great job. Now, shut up or load your own videos!!!

      Fuck out of here 75 beads an hour..
      We have a bead machine that you punch in the measurements and it cuts the bead to that measurement while also muddling it and we still didn't do that many ... If you can do 75 with a fucking hopper and roller the bead must be all types of fucked up

  • @Robert8455
    @Robert8455 7 років тому +15

    I watched a few of your videos on taping. Chad did a fine job. It looks like he get's paid by the job so there is no goofing around or waisted motion. A good pro makes things look easy but it takes some experience to get the mix just right, load the blades just right, apply the right pressure just right etc. while not wasting materials on the floor. It would probably take me a day to do redo my 2 car garage, I'd be sore, there would be a lot more sanding and it wouldn't look as good. I'd gladly pay someone like Chad to knock it out in an short order.

    15 years on drywall. I enjoy watching someone else finish and tape Sheetrock. As said before everyone does it different. Most GC's wouldn't go for vertical paper corner bead. Usually most want metal corner bead. I'd still work with you all any day!

  • @n40tom
    @n40tom 4 роки тому +6

    I did construction work most of my life on mostly high-rise buildings some apartment complexes and track homes. That being said I know a little about a lot including finishing drywall. Now when I had my house built 13 years ago, there was an older (70) Italian guy who did the taping. He used metal corner bead and then put mesh tape over the edges of that. I asked him why because I've never seen that before. He said you can run into is corner with a hand truck and it won't pop . This guy was the best drywall finisher I have ever seen. I don't care if it's Morning Light or evening light you cannot see any tape marks or where the joints are anywhere in my house. The absolutely best taping job I have ever seen and I was in the construction business for 38 years.

    Great vid for anyone that wants to know how to do it, but good luck to any of you that want to try for yourself. Being a taper for well over 25 years, I can tell this guy knows what he's doing and makes it look like you could do it too. As one poster below said, there's no wasted motions and things like blade pressure, angle, amount of mud, etc are Very tough to get right. Only through years of doing it will you get to this point. But yeah, excellent vid, Thanks Kody!

    drywall mud in my humble opinion is an art. I am a GC and do all types of work. Building custom cabinetry, tile setting, wood finishing, you name it, but for the life of my I can not master drywall.
    I can make it look goof but it takes a ton of time. What should take a skilled drywaller 30 mins will probably take me 90. My hat goes off to you guys. A nice sheet of rock is the backbone to any room pr space. Ugly seams - and it doesnt matter how gorgeous the remodel is.
    This guy is good, I think I learned something. Thanks!

    This is really great info. I do all sorts of construction on small projects from pouring footings and ledges to framing, electrical, and plumbing, but mudding and taping is still magic to me. It takes me hours, 5X as much mud as it should, and sanding like I'm building a teak boat. So watching the skill like Kody has is really inspiring. Thanks.

    I have done lots of drywall taping and I still enjoy watching these videos. One tip to re touch on that they said that most probably didn’t catch is to thin out your mud on outside and inside corners or you want be able to get it out from under the tape. Or you will damage the tape trying to get it to lay flat. Awesome job guys keep it up. I don’t know if you have a tear away bead video but that would be another good one to do.

    So good to see a taper that really knows what he's doing. I've been on so many jobs where they hire these bozos who don't have a clue and all the corners, inside and out, come out crooked. What really drives me nuts is when you have a bifold doorway jambed with corner bead and the beads aren't straight or even parallel. You cannot get even reveals with your doors when the jambs are like that.
