      Can you please expand on what's stated at 10:40 about chalking a line in cased the walls are not square? I generally understand you're trying to make sure the boards are square with the walls and ceiling. However, I'm not exactly sure how to deal with a room that is not exactly square. I don't want to ask too much of you since you're already made a big effort to produce this video, however, if you're inspired to make another video, I would find it helpful to see how you install the ceiling panels in a room that is not exactly square. Seeing how you make the chalk line and how that line is used, would be helpful and greatly appreciated. Thank you for everything, Sir. Thumbs up on this video.

    I used 5/8 purple on my entire house 300 sheets. Cost about 25% more than 1/2 regular. Denser and more soundproof water resistant mold and fireproof. We also went 2x6 exterior walls and rock wool. Really quiet solid peace of mind. Cheaper than a fancy monopoly design.

    I've only been finishisg drywall since '75 and hanging it since '85. I went through a painters apprenticeship program back then and they taught me how to finish with pan and knife. When I turned out as a journeyman I switched to using hawk and trowel(I can also use the mud boxes and bazooka). Knowing how I like drywall hung for efficient finishing I taught myself to hang around 1985. When cutting out outlet boxes with the rotozip I go counter clockwise because the spin of the bit sucks it to the box and keeps it there when you go around it so there won't be any gaps and the cut is closer to the box and cleaner. When doing the inside of things like pipes(which is next to never) then you can go clockwise with the rotozip (or the Milwaukee). I'm 72 now and I'm still finishing, hanging not so much.

It would seem to make sense to use 12' panels since the 16" OC spacing is spot on for attachment. Is there a reason you would not recommend running the drywall long edge parallel with the joists? Thanks

    Also, living where I do, you get these "self taught" drywallers who don't know what they are doing because they were either taught wrong or had no one knowledgable in the trade to teach them the right way. Recently I encountered two guys hanging my buddy's shop ceiling (they were supposed to be drywallers but they line up all the butt joints instead of staggering them). If I had the authority in this situation I would have fired them on the spot. I should have fired them anyway had the county sherriff escort off of the property.

    The use of Liquid Nails is a sign of extremely poor craftsmanship, because it makes any future remodel or repair an absolute nightmare. A good craftsman always thinks about how it will affect future jobs. Liquid Nails should only be used in applications where everything will be trashed if anything will need to be repaired.
