Leah, I've watched several of your videos when I've been trying to figure out how to tackle various home repair projects. I love your straightforward, no BS style. Now you've given me the confidence and knowledge to tackle several drywall projects I've been putting off in my 50-year old house. Thank you for the excellent instruction. Again.
WOW!!!You explained it SOOOOO CLEARLY! For a topic like this, you've done a SUPER AMAZING WORK I'm soooo impressed. Drywall here I come! Thank you so so much!
Just in time!!! I was facing a small drywall patch job in my new house. But have been putting it off because of feeling intimidated! Not anymore!!! Can't wait to get started now. Thank you!
Hi Leah, This is such a clear & very helpful video. We had some wonky angled plumbing pipes replaced under the kitchen sink. The plumber removed a big chunk of drywall to access pipes. (70 year old house... don't ask !!) I made a paper template for the location of the pipes meeting up with the new drywall. It helped tremendously to see how to cut the drywall. Thanks so much !!
Excellent video, thank you so much, I had a roof leak and I need to cut out and replace some damaged sheetrock on the ceiling and this video is exactly what I needed! Great job!
Honestly, I watched this video just because I'm a fan of Leah, and I totally love her tutorials. :-) I don't think I'll be dealing with drywall in the foreseeable future, but I still enjoyed the video and learned a lot from an excellent presenter!
Thanks a lot Leah I love your videos I am learning a lot. I am a landlord and with your videos I am saving a lot of money , but the best thing is I do the repairs my self so I am very proud of it thanks again god bless you.
Fabulous job on this video, it will help me tremendously on my project! I am installing an attic ladder in a hallway and I need to remove a section of drywall.
Great, easy to follow lessons. I think first timers try to cut either the wrong side of drywall or try to cut too deep with the utility knife. I like to watch the tradesman with their tape measure, knife and hand placement just run the length. It has always amazed me how quickly they could score break and cut.
seejanedrill Hey y’all! We brought the pieces of my small adjustable carving bench over. There’s still some to cut. As soon as I get the vanity built and the molding up, it will be the next project. I was doing it all with hand tools. I think this was the project I was working on when I ruptured, but I wouldn’t testify to it. (LOL). But it was the project next to and on my bench. I can’t find the correct words to share with you Ms Leah and Ms Karen at See Jane Drill what it means to me to have this back on my to do list. Couldn’t be at this point without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Big Hug to You
Lol,. Simple but true,, spot on,,,, been wearing tool belts for decades , nearing 4 decades,,, still love it,. , Keep it up,,,, your passing the trade,. Hats off , on a job you do well ,,,,,,amen
Another great video, Leah. Thanks! As a follow-up, maybe some help in marking where the switches and outlets, etc. go on the drywall. I have had some problems with that in the past.
For measuring and cutting the wallboarder's buddy drywall cutter is the most versatile tool. It both measures and cuts. Circle cutters and rotary saws make holes easier
Thanks I learned a lot. I’m enlarging an existing recessed area where tv goes into the wall. Will be making long cuts. Going from 65 to 75 inch tv. Seems like that drywall saw would be best ? Also seems you favor hand saw vs power tool ? Less dust with hand maybe ? Awesome demo. Thank you !!
Once I forgot all my saws to cut drywall. Went to the dollar store and pick one up. Worked just as good LMAO. Just cut the paper with a razor for a clean cut. I was to lazy to load up the tools so I finished the project with a $1 saw lol.
Is multitool with cutting blade easier beside cost more money - pro and con? I need to remove kitchen cabinet base and drywall in the back due to mold.
It is a very cute video!!! Iam a general contractor and have hung thousands of sheets og drywall....and if any person that I hired to hang board did any one thing you.did in video they would not be hanging board very long......first off why flip the sheet over to cut it....it's easier and cleaner to cut the crease from the front.......on and on and on!!!! Any body hanging production board is hanging 4'x12'x 1/2"or5/8" so flowing sheeet over would be a chore......and we use fixed blade drywall knifes never a retractable one
Great tutorial but there is easier way to start inside cut with jab saw, just take a drill and drill a hole that’s more or less size of jab saw blade to go in and much easier to start that way 👍
Of course, I would recommend that you check out our playlist on drywall, which contains how-to's on every aspect of the installation process. Here is the link: th-cam.com/play/PL7TL3DIMD30csWle0kJd3zpxO8f3bOcZJ.html
Not feeling belittled! Feeling like someone gets it that not everyone feels comfortable with complicated intimidating instructions from jerks who treat us, and call us, idiots, when in fact many of us are totally comfortable with power tools to cut wood. Or to cut off the head & limbs of assholes who think they're better. Just sayin'.
@@johng9562 -Nope. Not correct at all. I was referring to those who call us idiots because we don't know how to do something, which intimidates us so that we are hesitant to seek help thereby creating a vicious cycle. Then along comes someone with a simple, step by step video that shows how easy these secrets of the trade really are, secrets that have been kept from us so that we can be made to feel ignorant. I don't feel belittled by the video, I feel empowered with knowledge. I said "..complicated intimidating instructions from jerks who treat us, and call us, idiots..." You didn't put up a video, & I haven't worked with you. So it's wasn't you I was referring to. Sorry for the confusion.

I think you may be the best educator out there when it comes to DYI. Love your logical approach.
Way to break it down Leah!👍🏻 Once DIYer’s learn the basics, Drywall is totally doable. Nice job! -Paul
Really like your stuff, too, Paul!
I appreciate that Ciaron!🙏
Paul Peck DrywallTube. I agree.....you've got a very informative channel.

Great tips Leah, I always struggle with drywall so this is going to help! Thank you!
Another great video, Leah. I always learn something from you!
Thank you, Kathy!
I can listen to you all day.
this is a very good video, it shows everything and answers all the questions.
This was fantastic to watch. Thanks for doing this.

Very informative, thank you. Will be adding a an outlet to my closets.
Thank you for the drywall confidence 🙌🏼
You just got to be careful...You don't want to have a rectangle with a wrecked angle! Great video, Leah!

That’s a damn good circle cutout.
I plan on using the “zip” tool from Milwaukee.. it’s a fairly cheap tool really and it’s amazing!
There certainly a lot of power tools out there for drywall application.
seejanedrill nothing wrong with the tools that run on “elbow grease” 😀
Fine video. Very clear explanation and demonstration.
I also use an electrical multi tool to save time and effort for square cuts etc.
Love the simplicity. You’re too clever 😀
🙂
I appreciate every video you offer us.
thank you!
Amazing tutorial. Thanks for such a great and succinct video!
Informative and well narrated. Thank you.
This was super helpful. Dumb question though, can you use a metal guide while cutting to make the cut clean and straight?
Demo is sooooo much easier, and more fun too!!
it can be 🙂
Thanks I learned a lot. I’m enlarging an existing recessed area where tv goes into the wall. Will be making long cuts. Going from 65 to 75 inch tv. Seems like that drywall saw would be best ? Also seems you favor hand saw vs power tool ? Less dust with hand maybe ? Awesome demo. Thank you !!
Thank you so much for this. Inspired me to take on a project myself and learn more about drywalling. Thank you, aunty!
Thank you so much for making this big help
Super helpful, thanks for sharing!

First you forgot but you were too lazy to load?
Thank you, Jane!
Your vids are top notch! Thank you!
Great drywall info.
Good refresher for me thanks!!
Always great video's. Thanks!
You are Amazing how you make it Soo clear and interesting, Thank you
Thanks leah for motivating me, god bless.🙏
Thanks Leah, good and clear videos! 😎
Always love your videos!
thank you
If it's on the was already on the wall. I would not use a saw around places that might have wires or pipes.
love you and your tips!❤
Excellent video and advice, thanks
Is multitool with cutting blade easier beside cost more money - pro and con? I need to remove kitchen cabinet base and drywall in the back due to mold.
Well done!
GREAT VIDEO, THANKS LEAH
Thanks Joe
Great video!
Great 😫 I need to get something to cut open a ceiling for pipe repairs. What about the one that’s plugged in. Can that be used?
Great video Leah. Take care. Be safe. Tim
thanks Tim

Until someone invents lightsabers, this will have to do.
TekaiGuy very funny
Thanks!
Useful Thanks
Will never use a keyhole saw again now that I found out the multitools can plunge cut it so easily.
Hey, Leah! Has anyone ever said you're the Bob Ross of tools? ^_^
🙂
I got pretty good at this
believe it or not. I didn't know how to cut them inside and went to ask my instructor. Your videos are very helpful to me!
Cutting i can do. Finishing i have problems. Mud and tape ect. Got advice for that. Please help.
Of course, I would recommend that you check out our playlist on drywall, which contains how-to's on every aspect of the installation process. Here is the link: th-cam.com/play/PL7TL3DIMD30csWle0kJd3zpxO8f3bOcZJ.html
Can i use for wood?
But will it KEEL?
❤
Wow. For over 40 years I've been cutting way too deep on sheetrock.
👍👍👍
Woow
your owsome

People are idiots ~ which is why we need someone like this to belittle us, talking to us like we are children.

What I said is true ~ DEAL WITH IT.
@@johng9562 - you sound cranky. I'm sorry. I'll not bother you anymore.
Let's see if I understand this: you call me a jerk, an idiot, and an asshole and then say I'm the one who is cranky ~ is that correct?

And people call these walls😂😂🤦♀
29 people can’t cut drywall 🤣
Great teaching, Thanks!
