He is the Bob Ross of drywall , the joy of plastering by Vancouver Carpenter
@@karljam8220 hey Karl , not everyone is a resentful and hateful failure, every tradesman had to start somewhere , most of the viewers came to learn , some of us are just watching for the entertainment, and some of us are actually doing drywall and plastering as an hobby and just love to learn and improve their skills... please karl, start a channel so you can show the world your greatness and superiority, please tell us how you were born doing 3 way corners with your bare hands, in the middle of the russian winter, tell us how how you invented drywall of the 8th day after God created the universe
Everything important about drywalling I have learned from you. Also my favourite tool is the same beveled sponge, held exactly as shown. I did make a slight modification to the sponge---I wrapped a single layer of masking tape around the thick end furthest from the thin edge. The tape keeps the outside edge from creating that line that must be sanded out (or avoided) allowing you to concentrate only on what the thin edge is doing.
Your lessons and advice have made this job lots of fun; although tedious, I approach each session knowing my results are going to be excellent....all your fault. senior from Ontario
3x the feathering...3x the fun!! Excellent vid as usual. So helpful!
I've been finishing drywall for a good long time now and am one of the few who seem to actually enjoy it.(not so much the sanding) Two of the hardest things for me to learn were 1. when you're doing the tape coat know when you've gotten to a point where the joint compound is as good as it's gonna get and now you're just playing with it. 2. The skim coat is just that. Slop up the mud and don't leave and hateful thick edges. Feather, feather, feather. I do enjoy these vids because I can always learn and pick up some new tricks. As long as I've been doing this I have never come upon one of the corner sponges for the paint pole. I will be getting one soon.
It took me three years to get "perfect" 3 ways! Part of the problem was our company uses angle boxes and mudrunners which leaves a lot more mud than you would usually need, but when you get the hang of it, it becomes one of the most satisfying things about the job
The SANDING SPONGE😲
been using that type (triangle one) for a while, they are the dogs bollocks when it comes to quick corner sanding.
Hopping on one of your videos more-or-less at random to thank you for your channel. I've been renoing a large bedroom with a vaulted ceiling in a VERY crooked house for quite a while (okay almost two years) and I've devoured most of your taping/mudding stuff. I've been doing small DIY "tape and spackle" jobs for many years, but partly because the projects arise infrequently the progress in my skills has been slow -- many times repeating the same mistakes and not knowing how to fix them or avoid them. You transformed this work for me.
I know you didn't ask, but the Number One benefit I've gained is actually something you don't explicitly emphasize -- it just comes through with everything you do: knowing the purpose and objective of each step. This alone has let me see the big project in a more measured way. Instead of crashing ahead with the general goal being "get it ready to paint," I could see everything in very clear stages.
I'm certainly not pro level. I'm still not mixing my own mud from powder. I still have to do more sanding than is probably ideal. But on a wavy wall with odd mismatched butt joints and 35-degree inside and outside corners, I accomplished it all in much more efficient stages than would have been the case before Vancouver Carpenter. So thanks.
Good lesson Ben! I'm in the process of skim coating over textured walls and ceiling. I will try out this method. I'm almost done resurfacing every inch of sheetrock in a 800 sq. foot cabin... I am almost getting the hang of it. 😁 your videos have helped a lot. What you haven't shown that I can see is how much imperfections a knock down texture will cover!
Thank you for teaching us "the" way to do it. I'm working around our parents' house with unfinished walls. Long way to go. 😊💐🇵🇭
Another excellent intructional video. You're a great teacher and I never tire of watching you and listening to you. Thanks Ben.
I've used your one side of the road method for the past year or 2 since I first saw you post it. Works great! Purchased some Can Am tools based on your vids too. Love em. Thanks
We call three ways "Windmills" cause they look like windmills lol great video Ben!
Best and most informative drywall channel. You are a teacher man.
Thanks for the 3 way.
Thanks for this Ben. I've been struggling a little with the corners, will try your method. 👍
Applying proper pressure to the sponge in the three ways kind of like a pressure flip in skateboarding you need to apply pressure to the right corner of the board or sponge in order not to leave marks on the wall from a carpenter skateboarder drywaller perspective I'm on the same boat as you good technique
Hi Ben, In that mythical Country known as Europe, they drive on the RIght! UK is where we drive on the left, and India, and Australia and couple of other former territories. However your 3 way explanation is the best I've seen on TH-cam, and really makes sense from an application perspective.
You got cornered but found your way out by mudding one side one day and the other side the other day. It's a good move that gets excellent results.
Excellent tips for a clean corner. Thanks!!
So klean. You’re a god
Never tried the corners like that and have always struggled getting them perfect. Thanks for the video
Very good video focused on this terrifying subject, I needed it. Thank you.
Wow the skateboarding channel and this channel good for you
Thanks for the video. It's helped me with my basement project. Can you do a video on how to coat 3 way outside corners? How do you effectively work the knife from the horizontal bead to the vertical bead without making a mess?
Keep up the amazing work Ben you always do and amazing job on your work and your videos. Your videos never disappoint.
Love it!
Been teaching me lately to skateboard. Now your teaching me drywall!
Damn renaissance man!
Very nice and big thank you for the three way tips! didn't you you were into that kind of stuff tho :D
1:11 You tried so hard to control it,...but I saw that laugh coming from miles away. 🤣
Pro at work.
Exactly 💯 clear😅😅
I always use the first coat of primer to show me tiny imperfections which can be touched up before a second coat.
I need to repair some of the corners in my house. Do I need to rip out the entire edge or can I just replace a section? Do I need to prefill or remove the old filling and prefill the edge? Thanks for all your help!!!!
Should you mud the 3 way corners before going down the wall mudding the rest of the edges
So you have already bedded in 3x tapes already, 1/8 inch away from the the corner..? And this is the second of the 3 coat process?
Hey Ben, Newbie here. What’s the proper sequence of order for mud, sand, primer, touch up and finish.. what am I looking for and in what order?
More or less the primer and re sanding sequence
I have a small question, I did my three coats, I applied the primer coat, and I notice in one place I sanded badly (slight excess) I don't really know what to do, I looked in your videos but I did not find an answer, can you direct me please
Thanks
What kind of sandpaper do you recommend? I’ve used the screen type for years, but one thing I noticed, is they can leave a screen print behind. Maybe I need to use less pressure or a finer screen. I love the foam pad you use. It’s all I use in corners.
You need foam backed sanding sheets for finish sanding. Regular paper sheets for sanding first coat is good.
Have you thought about doing a replacement window video?
Yup. Just need a window to replace.
Do you ever use a corner knife to apply the mud?
No. Never really took to them.
Good for noobs like me. A pro would probably throw it directly in the trash
What happens if you can't avoid a tapered edge meeting a square cut edge in a corner of between ceiling and wall. I have this with a wall square edge meeting a sloping ceiling and the ceiling edge is tapered. Would you fill the taper with trade set first, then tape and point as normal. Or can you tape and joint but just fill the tapered side of the joint with a thicker layer of mud?
You don't need to do anything special. Just tape it and fill it. Your eye will not be able to pick up the slight difference. The bevelled side will end up flat and the flat side will be imperceptibly built up. Don't over think it :)
@@vancouvercarpenter Thanks, when you put drywall up horizontally and want to square stop rather than have scotia is it normal practice to have a tapered edge at the top of the wall and a tapered edge on the ceiling at that junction? All of the 13mm ceiling sheets here have both edges tapered.
🙏👏👍💪
NOT THAT KIND OF 3 WAY, YOU STINKERS!
Title should have been “how to get
Your wife excited about a 3 way”
👍👍
If anyone is confused on how to use an angle sponge, you should hire a professional 😆 🤣
ah yes left hand side "European style" even tho only the UK, japan and New Zealand drive left
I’m so happy for you
@@daniel.s8126 okay, my point still stands. Most european countries drive right
Magine being triggered over a comment like that 😂
God I hate drywall! Lol.
How else? Don't muck it up!
Europeans drive on the right side. Brits drive on the left.
I’m not very travelled
Not every European country, 96% of them do. But this is a drywalling video not a driving one, although that analogy works great for keeping you straight.
Gotta call BS, average noob will spend 6 months trying to duplicate that!
I enjoy your videos, but I can’t stand how you bang your trowel or knife against the Hawk. I realize that it is because your mike is on your collar, but it’s still distracting.
