    I look forward to watching you guys. I haven’t laughed so much in years. Lucy and Ethel should be worried, you’ve got them beat. Guys watch some UA-cams. Cutting Sheetrock is easier than buttering toast, you guys made it an adventure. Glad nobody lost a finger. Remember light score on front side, snap, second cut from back side, so you don’t tear up the paper.

    You're off to a great start in the UA-cam world. Love the coyote machine. A little suggestion would be to make sure that you always grease all the zerk fittings. I noticed in one picture that there was no grease coming out of any of your fittings. Or gaps in the machinery. It's very important to keep those things grease so water doesn't get in and start resting all of your bearings etc. Maintenance is the key specially way up north. Keep up the great work, and I'll keep watching. Wishing you all the best and happiness.

    Mistake N0#1!!!! You need piece of board up/ behind upper seam, in that smaller Drywall piece, between studs, like 3 pieces!! That way the whole edge, seam is supported, and you can screw edge in both sides to these boards !!! Now there is nothing......., you will learn,....I hope;o)

    Great work everyone. I'm surprised you don't have a wood burner inside to burn all that wood. You can also get them with cookers and double ovens. The wood you have would keep you going for ages. Also all the wood from the forest. Or are wood burners a New Zealand thing and not used in the Northern hemisphere?

    Sorry guys, simply put - you don't put corner strips on those interior corners. Thats totally unprofessional. And it looks gawdy. Either do it right or don't do it at all. Yes, im picky. Seriousely. If you tape it, then mud it right, it won't show. But dont be putting all.those corner strips in there. No one has those corner strips running up and down and across the walls both vertically and horizontally and across the ceiling throughout their house. She isn't going to like it. Neither would I. Thats where taping and mudding it professionally comes in. Nice of you guys to help out. Some of it looks okay. But if it's not what you'd have in your own home? Rule is, then don't put it inside others homes. I've installed walls, beams. cabinets, crown, baseboard, set a farm sink all by myself and trust me you want to do it right. Sorry to burst your bubble there. But don't just throw it up like that. They make corner mud trowels to get the corners as perfectly straight as you can get them. Best wishes.
