How about vertical one by pieces instead of horizontal? I've done all kinds of drywall bracing in all kinds of weird patching. Some I've even done at angles because of the space available.
That works too, my goal here was the least amount of lumber possible for the most amount of contact between the gap if that makes sense. This was more time-consuming than any other part of this repair sucked
@@DrewGarage when someone buys my place after I leave this miserable world, if they decide to do drywall work, they're going to cuss me so badly. There are wooden framed drywall patches everywhere. I even have an old coffee mug holding up a length of exhaust fan metal tubing in the ceiling. That mug has been there for almost 30 years now!
I did a couple like this where I didn’t have room to do it the way in the video, but the way in the video provides a decent amount more stability for just a little bit more lumber cost

Why not drill pocket holes and screw it in to the studs?
