- How to find studs behind wood paneling WITHOUT an electric stud finder. Electric stud finders are pretty cheap and reliable so if you don't have one you should look into it! I'll be picking one up just to have. Hope this helps anyone who may be in the situation we were in. Thanks for watching!

These kinds of videos are the backbone of society. Thank u!!!!
This is simple genius. My stud finders (I have three) are useless on wood paneling and I've been trying to figure out how to locate the studs without drilling a bunch of holes. I installed the paneling myself (didn't think to take pics of the framing) and the brads are visible in places where the tongue and groove panels come together. Great idea.
I'm Soooo GLAD YOU
Made this Video.🤩
This was so helpful, thank you for posting this!
Just what I needed, since this was the exact situation I was dealing with and for the exact same reasons. Thanks !
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
You can also put a magnet on a string to find the studs. Some studs are 2 foot center as well so I’d knock 16” from first screw to see if there’s a stud there to make sure it’s 16” center and not 24”.
Nice video! Thank you
Hi, can I use toggle bolts to mount something on these kind of walls? Not sure what’s on the other side 😅 could you help me out? Thanks
Helpfull but I'm dealing with a job. Have to drill 3 inch hole through 12 inch thick load bearing wall. 12 inch headers etc. I'll try your method. Worst case I'll rip the wood paneling off and find a spot
👍
I honestly can’t tell by feel, and the wall has been painted over with dark colors so I can’t really see any nails that look like are fixed to a stud.
