An experienced drywaller once told me that the royal road to acquiring his enviable skill level was to watch for 15 minutes and practice for 15 years. In sharing your experience, you have literally shaved years off my mud-tape learning curve. Many thanks for saving me from myself!
I have a question for you. I finished my corners some outside and inside corners) and part of my project I had to do a skim coat on a couple walls. I used the same compound for everything but the dried skim coat seems much softer and rougher than than the corners. I thinned out the compound a lot more for the skim coat than I did for the final coats on the corner. Any advice on fixing this? Re-skim coat with a thicker mixture? Anything to avoid it in the future? Thanks!
I forgot to mention when I am sending I am having trouble blending it in because the skim coat sands down very easily than the harder mud from the corner so its leaving a ridge no matter what I use to sand with
vanislefaller you want your mud fairly thin on your skim coat. Purpose of skimming is leaving as little mud on the walls as possible ( for obvious reasons ) and also to make it much easier for sanding. Hope this helps
DIY videos are among the best UA-cam has. Even when the video is several years old, the information is as good as "new" to the DIYer looking for guidance. Thanks for the help on this one 🙏 👍
I am restoring a farmhouse and I've watched lots of YT videos and I have to say you are the best. Your voice is pleasant to listen to and you are straight to the point. Thanks for also not having kids or dogs running around distracting the instruction.
I’m about to finish my drywall in a new two story addition. I’ve been watching and learning from your videos for a few weeks now. I love how you explain your methods without losing focus. You’re the Bob Ross of drywall finishing. 👍😊👍
"Don't ask. " Been there, done that. I've been throwing mud at walls since 1970. East coast of the US Began with drywall, blueboard and old time hair plaster., even a bit of rock lath. Now the good part,, was an older Irishman,, that was just so good with every plaster and technique you can imagine. Right down to slaking his own lime in a barrel on the landing in the middle of the building,,, in other words,, making his own plaster. Don't ever pay him before Friday afternoon,,, liked his beer a bit much. But I learned so much from him. NOT the beer part. You have a good hand,, a pleasure to watch.
I'm a DIYer completely unacquainted w construction terminology. I was just watching another vid of yours and saw the title of this thumbnail from the corner of my eye - totally thought it said 'HOW TO INSTALL CORNBREAD'. After the moment of processing that that couldn't be right, 2nd processing attempt was 'HOW TO INSTALL CORNERBREAD'. After another moment of realizing that still can't be what it said, finally got correct read. LOL. Thanks for the tips & God Bless you :)
I have definitely dramatically improved upon my taping and mudding skill set from watching your videos. I am a by eye type of learner and just from watching I have greatly improved my quality and efficiently. Thanks for the video!
Been watching your videos for a few years now... there's always different ways of doing the same thing and it's actually fun to watch your videos because as I look at all the comments here and in different videos you've done, one thing usually sticks out of all the rest..... your ability to teach.... it's the best compliment you can get
You are OUTSTANDINGLY good at what you do! Moreover... you are equally great at showing us how to do what you do!!!! Thanks for what you do!!!! Extremely informative!!!
A carpenter knowing how to do great drywall is not as strange as a handgun instructor knowing as much as she knows about doing great drywall! :) Every morning, with a cup of hot coffee, I start my day with one of your awesome videos! Thank you so much for sharing your work so us DIYers can know what good work looks like.
I’ve been mudding and taping this weekend for the first time in my life. Your videos saved my butt. You are very gifted at what you do, as an artist and instructor. Kudos.
Your channel has been a lifesaver. We are redoing our walls in our home and we are doing them ourselves. I was so intimidated at first but your videos have taught me so much, I think we can do this. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you!!
I'm glad I found you! Corner beads are the bane of my existence. My house had 1984 doorways all throughout the house. Actual door facings where they took doors down that went to every room, aside from bedrooms. They looked way too dated and I removed them all and did corner beads to every door facing. Now my only problem is keeping all of the members of my household from busting the crap out of them! Wreckless bunch of hooligans😂
Have to say I’ve attempted to tape and spackle new drywall in the past and it was always a disaster but I watched a few of your videos on “how to” from inside/outside corner beads to other tips on projects like this and it really made a huge difference this time. Wish I’d found these videos sooner. Thanks a lot and please keep them coming.
I love your work. I am just learning to do what mainly men do but so many women are into the home improvement thing now like myself, I love learning from others. Thank you
Been 40 years since I did any large drywall projects. Always hated it, but your vids have me back on track and enjoying it! Never used these style corners and needed not only basic install, but the tips you always offer. Thanks to you I have managed to do my extensive home-remodeling project with only about 10% dry sanding! The rest is 3rd-step feathering and a bit of sponge sanding here and there. Best no-nonsense videos on the subject. Thanks from another carpenter who knew more than he wanted to about drywall LOL
Am checking your videos out after a long while since I last did some mudding but I came back just to see if you're still around helping people. And you are. Thank you.
Good stuff! I work at a trade school, and we are remote learning because of Covid 19. Your videos are very good. There are lots of hacks out there, so it is refreshing to find quality content! Kudos from a Journeyman carpenter!
nice videos man. I completely renovated my basement back around the time you posted this video. i probably watched hundreds of hours of instructional videos. So far no cracks or issues with my drywalling/mudding work...But i gotta, i wish i had seen your videos back then. They're pretty thorough and well explained.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills with us inexperienced drywall tapers. I recently started off my own painting company (which offers drywall repair), I have never had to repair or replace a corner bead, since I have only repaired small holes in the drywall (in fact, I did not even know what a corner bead was, until I typed in "Drywall metal corner repair/replacement). Thanks again for simply explaining this process and for showing us some simple tips to make this easier (such as showing us that the mud should be a little bit runny). Your willingness to share your knowledge and experience will help me look as though I will know what I am doing, if I land the drywall repair estimate.
You put out some really nice videos, after 35 + yrs. doing every aspect of building and remodeling, it's nice to be able to watch some very informative vids and maybe pickup some new tips. Thnx.
Very informative video! I just bought a older house and plan on fixing the corners with corner bead before I give it a fresh coat of paint! This helped a ton, much appreciated & very well explained!
"Don't ask". What I want to say when asked how I learned to fix toilets so well. Haha. Lots of good tips in your vids. I've been a handyman for quite a few years so it's not easy to find vids that teach me much. Yours have. I appreciate it.
Thanks so much for your videos. With your videos I have been able to master the technique of mud and taping and now putting a cornerbead in place. Thanks a million.
I’ve found for myself that I like using this method as in the end it’s faster and looks better even if it cost a bit more. Just found your channel today and really like what I’ve seen. Hello from Ontario
Thanks a ton for this tutorial! I was dreading mudding in some edges and corners in my master bath remodel, but following your technique was incredibly helpful. Thank you!
Spent the day in bed sick watching a marathon of your video's ! Never seen your corner trick before with the small piece of tape but it totally makes sense. I figure I owe you a sub for the day of entertainment you gave me... keep em coming bud thx
I’ve just taken an instructor job at my Ironworker local union and have found it very difficult. Very different than expected. You do a good job of showing people “how to” and “what to look out for “ instead of “look how fast I am “ and or “you’ll never reach my amazing talent , feel lucky when I allow you to observe a master craftsmen with techniques I was born with “
You are awesome . Love all your videos and would enjoy working with you to learn the correct way of finishing drywall. Thanks again for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Awesome, thank you! Would it be possible to create a quick video of the sequence of events? For example when corner bead would be applied or when to do sanding. If using a plastic corner bead that is affixed with spray on adhesive do you apply the bead in the same step as mud on corner bead? Thanks again!
I love your videos! I watched several videos and some more than once and was able to do my walls! So you know, Home Depot is carrying the wide corners now!!
Sir you are awesome!! I am a handyman by trade and i am learning so much from your videos. Please keep up the excellent job you are doing and thank you for sharing it with us! :)
Why IS the carpenter doing so much drywall? Though I'm so glad you do, and am using what I learn. Any tips for an old woman who needs to replace a heavy exterior door (in existing frame) without any help? I can lift the door, but cannot hold it to drop in the hinge pins.
I’ve been surfing UA-cam for plastering tip and stumbled on your channel. Really like your attention to detail and clear instructions. Also subscribed. Regards from Perth W.A. 🦘🇦🇺
I love the way you show even how to load the knife or trowel with mud that is important to me- also you showed in one of your videos, on metal corner bead you also used tape on the flange side of the bead - I was wondering if the fib a fuse paperless drywall tape , which is supped to be 70% stronger for crack resistance would be good to use.
Nice work (from a 34 year craftsman). And no need to ask why a carpenter knows so much about drywall. I know why. But I'll say this, the carpenter is more meticulous than the average drywaller. (Who may consider drywall to be very forgiving paint grade wood.)
Mate! If your videos about carpentry are going to be as good as these I can’t wait to see them... In another video you said that one day you will prove to us that you are a carpenter, and I hope you meant that you are going to make videos about carpentry....
around 5:30 you say to check that there is no light showing when you push it with the spreader to see if there is room to fill. Let's say there is light (which means there is room to fill), how do you 'fill' it?
By fill. He means then you mud over the the bead.. To flatten the corner.. A bed coat . another coat little more wider. Thin a skim coat. Wider yet.. 6" 8 " 10"
This is why you do 45 degrees in order no to need tape and you should use durabond for your corners, just a little knowledge I acquired over a very successful career as top Drywall system professional in the entire USA East Coast. But you gave good advise for lining corners and using a piece of tape which will help prevent cracking
used this for the first time today i do remodeling i loved the ease and the overall look of it after putting them up will make the rest of this job go smoothly and look beautiful.
Great videos man. I had to tape a butt joint and a few inside/outside corners for a home project. After watching all of your videos I can proudly say I got the seal of approval from my wife after I was done. It took a few more coats that it would you but in the end it turned out great. Thank you for your time making these.
Thanks. After compound dries. Do you add more compound to make cornerbead flat and smooth and then when it dries do you sand it? Anybody, please advise.
Thanks for your very useful and clear tutorials. I have a couple questions as to corner beads - first, what do you do when the two ends of drywall panels don't meet flush, ie one falls short of reaching the end of the other? Does the edge need to be made up or prefilled somehow? Second, how do you ensure that there is gap left to fill on the corners beads, is it just the natural shape of the corner bead that ensures this? Thanks again.
Love your videos. You make it really plain and easy to understand the steps necessary to complete this job. I have gone from dreading to begin to absolutely excited to get started! Thanks!

I have to say you are probably the best at doing instructional videos. I hope you keep making videos, I'll be watching them. Thanks.

I'd recommend getting a mud hooper designed for corner beads/off angle beads and roller head. They're awsome and you won't be disappointed.
Appreciate all of the steps shown in this video, and those close-ups i the end are invaluable.
A video with lots of good stuff to know. Well presented with no extraneous content
I love the trick with the little piece of paper on the corner. Thank-You for the great vids!
Great Video.....I hate drywalling projects and this video has helped answer lots of questions for me! Thanks.
You do a very thorough job, it better be years before plaster cracks but you look out that far ahead..❤❤ gotta love it..

Thanks for your very useful and clear tutorials. I have a couple questions as to corner beads - first, what do you do when the two ends of drywall panels don't meet flush, ie one falls short of reaching the end of the other? Does the edge need to be made up or prefilled somehow? Second, how do you ensure that there is gap left to fill on the corners beads, is it just the natural shape of the corner bead that ensures this? Thanks again.
Thank you! You made my DIY project a hundred percent easier!
what mud to use with paper faced corner beads? would light weight taping compound work or does it have to be something specific?
We have a chain of stores in the midwest (USA) called Menards and they have the extra wide corner bead like you are talking about.
Nice... Thanks for the tip. I'll check out Menards.
I wish i had watched these videos yesterday, i installed a couple corners of paper tape without pressing out the excess
Your how to videos are so helpful, straight forward and make my work look pro. Keep doing what you do.... we’re all grateful
Awesome video, this helped me a lot! When you wipe out the mud with the knife, are you just wiping the paper or both the metal and paper part?
THank you so much for taking the time to post this! Instant follow.
