METHOD 1. THE MOST FOOLPROOF METHOD OUT THERE!!
Get yourself a magnet. That's it!! Drywall is attached to studs using metal fasteners. The magnet picks up on these metal fasteners giving you the exact position of the stud!! Now that is amazing!
The best magnets to use are called 'Rare Earth Magnets, otherwise known as Neodymium Magnets'. You can find these in old computer hard drives that you see on peoples nature strips waiting to be picked up on hard rubbish day or you can get yourself one from any electrical supplies store for around ten to 20 dollars depending on the strength and quality. The one that l have is about 25mm (one inch) in diameter and about 4mm (a bit over one-eighth of an inch) thick.
Method 2:
Knock on the wall with your hand in a number of spots until the hollow sound becomes solid. Where the sound is solid there is probably a stub or a least a solid object. This method isn't bad but there is a definite room for error, as you can't exactly pinpoint the stud. You get the general area but it's a bit hit and miss and at other times it can be hard trying to differentiate the difference between a hollow and a solid sound. It is free though so that's good!
Method 3:
You can use a store-bought stud finder. Once again these are notoriously unreliable unless you buy a very expensive model.
Method 4:
Look on your wall for a powerpoint (outlet box). The bracket that holds the powerpoint (outlet box) in place is attached to the side of a stud. What you need to do is remove the powerpoint and have a look inside the hole to find out what side the stud is. From there you can measure the stud intervals which are usually 16 inches on centre (on centre means from the middle of one stud to the middle of the next stud) if you are in America or 450mm on centre for load-bearing walls and 600mm on centre for non-load bearing in countries like Australia. Obviously, these measurements can change from country to country depending on the Building Code for that Country or State but those measurements l gave are a pretty good indication.
So there you have it. Get yourself a magnet and happy stud hunting.
BONUS TIP:
If you find yourself building or renovating your home from scratch, or removed some plasterboard to do some work, take a photo of the stud wall prior to the drywall or plasterboard going up. This will let you know where the studs are at a later date when you need to find one.

Remember the screw or nail fastener may have just caught the edge of the stud.
Do the method multiple times to check for consistency of 16" or 24" O.C. horizontally or check the same stud for other screws/nails vertically to see if they are plumb.
They could be as much as 1.5" off.
You sir, are a diamond! May even use the magnets to hold the Christmas decorations to the ceiling without leaving marks.
Thanks Darren and great tip regarding the xmas decorations! Cheers mate
Brilliant!
I tried it. It works!!! This is the simplest, cheapest, and best solution I've ever heard. I'm glad I found your vid. I have to put up some bookshelves and I want to tap into the studs and not the drywall. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
+Cambridge RatMom Good stuff RatMom! Thanks for the feedback. Cheers
Gold, Shane-O! Saved me from being talked into buying a stud finder that would hardly get used :)
So simple and obvious I know feel stupid for buying all these stud finders...great info and thanks!
No worries Fredrick. Appreciate the comment. Cheers
My wife went out and found a stud and that's why I'm living alone now.
That is absolutely one of THE BEST tips I have come across out here. My guess is there are guys that work out in the field that do not know of this. Very helpful in my old house that doesn't seem to live up to the 16" center rule. Thanks and I did subscribe. When you were banging holes in the wall in the beginning I thought this was just going to be a joke...Bravo!
Thanks Durrell! Appreciate the comment. Have a great xmas. Cheers mate
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!! I will be making up some extra nice looking stud finders using this concept for all the guys in my family this Christmas! I can hardly wait to get started... I'll send you a pic of my final product! Love your videos!
Thanks for clarifying the 450mm, 600mm, and the 16 inches gap which is from the center of each studs!
No worries oogiemaster. Glad l could help. Cheers
I knew the magnet trick but adding that string was a great idea I have not seen elsewhere. Me and my lath and plaster walls thank you.
No worries Karl. I appreciate the feedback. Have a good one. Cheers mate
I've just been looking for stud finders on amazon....now I'm just looking for a magnet. Ingenious! Thanks.
Thanks Trish
I love this guy. You can feel his humor not just hear them. I just came across his video 6 years later.
Hahahahaha...thanks Ibrahaim....glad you enjoyed the vid! 👍😁
You're shitting me. That's a bloody brilliant tip.
Cheers Neil.
And here I was deciding to toss my Stanley FatMax and invest in a ProSensor when I happened upon this information. I tried it immediately and it worked. Thanks for tbe video. I will subscribe. PS. I just bought a MasterCraft Maximum Hawkeye Laser today and was not satisfied with it. Returning it tomorrow.
That's great Lambert. I'm glad you found my video. Shame about the laser. From my experience you need to spend a few dollars to get a decent one. Cheers mate.
This was fantastic! I'd been putting off wall mounting a tv for weeks while i tried to source an electronic stud finder/avoid drilling stacks of pilot holes in my wall. This saved me all of this and was completely free (had an old hard-drive I could plunder which was also another excellent tip!). Thankyou!
Thanks for the feedback thissimpleman. Have a good one. Cheers mate.
just found this video tonight, will absolutely help me find studs in bedroom to hang my large mirror, this is awesome!
+Vana S I hope the mirror hanging project went well Vana :-)
awesome! got a magnet from my refrigerator and it works! thanks :)
No worries Armando. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers mate
My dad used to have a magnetic stud finder. It's cool, but you are relying on the carpenter to have hit the stud dead on center. Also, where two pieces of drywall meet on a stud, the screws/mails will be near the edge.
Orion Red Good call, and I agree, however I think the magnetic stud finder is very useful in conjunction with a regular stud finder. I am a professional handy man, having wall mounted hundreds of heavy pictures, TVs and clothes dryers. I have a quality Stanley stud finder and even it sometimes gives me weird, anomalytic readings from time to time due to strange, inconsistent densities (ie insulation or otherwise) behind the plaster.
I will certainly try this technique next time I need a timber stud. Thanks man. Bonza work and I LOVE this video. 😘😂
I don't understand all these people giving a thumbs down. You really have to appreciate the humour at the beginning and the method for finding studs is solid. :)
Thanks mate.....unfortunately, that's youtube. I'm glads you liked it and found it useful. Cheers 👍😁
This man has saved me time AND money! Thank you so much for uploading the video! Totally worth it!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEO! You have such a great personality!~
Thanks for that ShojoBakunyu. Appreciate your comment. Cheers :-)
ShojoBakunyu That's because he's a fair dinkum Aussie. 👍😂
I was getting all depressed because I just picked up the drill for the first time in my life in attempt to put up a coat rack. I didn't know anything about studs and proceeded to drill two wonky looking holes...I got through the drywall and then I hit something and the drill just wouldn't go further! So then I realized that I should have read things up before I did anything...and luckily the first thing that I found in a search about hanging anything up was your video! I watched the entire thing, got all excited and picked up some loose magnets that I had on my fridge and they had a *reaction* to one of the holes!! I feel *blessed* lol. This turned out to be a great learning lesson, if I had successfully been able to put up the rack on first attempt I would not have learned anything further! I do have a question - my drill still won't go further..is it because I have to drill harder to get into the wood/stud? I tried another 5 minutes of moderate speed drilling and no advance. What could be behind the drywall? And would a plastic anchor be right for the stud hole? THANK YOU!! Shared your video to my friends and they totally appreciate your tips!!
G'day Sandy. It certainly was a learning curve for you :-) The drill could have stopped for a number of reasons and without seeing it it is hard to determine exactly what it could be. You could have brickwork behind the drywall. You could be using the wrong type of drill bit or there may be a metal lintel behind the drywall. How far through the drywall does the drill bit stop? I'm sorry that l can't be more specific but it's really hard to diagnose from where l am. Thanks for the comment. It's much appreciated. Cheers
Thanks for your response! It went only about 5/8 in into the wall, if that makes any sense. Tried with a different drill bit and it worked (deeper hole)! The first drill bit I used was only for making a hole I suppose, the second one was for wood? Sharper...I think it worked because it got through the stud. Also used a different anchor..the drywall hole is a little cracked around the edges of the anchor but everything seems to be pretty sturdy! We'll see..thank you for your tips and for staying in touch!
Sandy Chen Hi Sandy. I'm happy that you got things sorted out. Just a quick side note. If you happen to find a stud, you don't need a wall anchor as you can screw the wall fixture directly into the stud. Wall anchors are generally only used when a stud can't be found…if that makes sense. Cheers
YOUNGGIANT , I AGREE , HAHAHA.........I HAVE BEEN A CARPENTER AND BUILDER , DRYWALLER , TAPER ETC ETC FOR 35 YEARS , AND THAT STRING AND MAGNET TIP WAS FREAKING AWESOME !!! AS SIMPLE AS A CHILD'S TOY. WHICH IS PROBABLY WHY THE CONCEPT NEVER CAME TO MOST OF US PRIOR TO VIEWING THE VIDEO ! FROM CANADA , THANK YOU UNC KNACKERS , GOOD ON YA MATE !
Yes! Yes! Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant, I am go glad I came across your Chanel, I am offically a regular now! :-) Thank you for all the great tips, and tricks, they will save me a lot of money!!! :-) Love your Chanel !!!!!!!
+Willow D'Mello That's great Willow! Welcome aboard. :-)
Yep... dis one da best!
Thanks Mumpy Gumboo
You're most welcome... long way to the north pole, down under, mate, but I noticed your magnet still works humdinger... (how am I doing at Auzzie talk so far?)
Mumpy Gumboo Spot on mate:-) Good job.
Ahhhh That has changed my life :)
Nifty little method isn't it mate.
shaneconlan1 boo, the string doesnt work for ceilings ;). Great trick anyway.
Sam Powell Thanks Sam. Unfortunately gravity is not the strings best friend in your case.
Brilliant! I adore your delivery....thanks for the tip sand the giggle!!!
well uncle knackers. im well impressed. been watching all your stuff for a while now, i think ur gr8, top tips done in a fun and extremely watchable way. ive used your post puller tech, works a treat, keep it up buddy , i need you, cheers buddy, Del
my mrs is the the ultimate stud finder, thats how we met in the first place
:-)
Yep - She found me!
All the metal coins in your pocket 😂
this is genius
+Caitlin Gerhart Glad you liked it Caitlin. Cheers :-)
BEST. VIDEO. EVER! Seriously, best and most useful tip on finding those elusive studs!
Thanks Alicia. I appreciate the feedback. Cheers :-)
your videos are fool proof. absolutely amazing. awesome work mate keep it up!
Don't know why this is so exciting, I've got stud-finders all over my house.
'Course, my wife just calls them mirrors...
Ryan Cook, lolololol 😂
Dang you! You stole my idea! Here I was thinking I was going to make a brilliant and hilarious studfinder video, and then I run across this. (I'm referring to the hammer part at the beginning)
Sorry mate :-)...you can still make one. I'd like to see it
shaneconlan1 Don't worry. I had just barely conceived the idea, so I wasn't emotionally invested or anything. I just thought it was funny that as soon as I had the idea, there was your video doing it!
Dude you are a rock star! That was the coolest way I've ever seen to locate the full length of a stud. Your steak knife remark was hilarious. Thanks for your help, my new 30 pound mirror is now safely hanging on the wall. Scott
Good stuff Scott. Only to happy to help. Cheers :-)
Ah-mazingly informative and enjoyable to watch. Thankyou!!
Oh man. Find a stud using a magnet and a piece of string as a "level". Brilliant.
I've used hard drive magnets to find studs for several years, never thought of the string.
Cheers mate :)
Jake Tolbert
"....piece of string as a "level". Brilliant."
FYI- Level is horizontal.
The string is used to find, "Plumb", i.e. vertical.
Now try that in my house. I have a 60 year old house with walls 3 times thicker than normal plaster with some freaky lining that burns out drill bits. I have had 5 people try to find studs at my house and all i ended up with is 2 hours or filling sanding and painting when they left. Great tip for a normal house though.
Mate…what are those walls made of????? Thanks for the comment though. Cheers.
Aston Mowing Have you checked your skirting boards for evidence of nail holes. Normally you put at least one nail in the stud through the skirting board. It might be worth a look. Alternatively, if you have a powerpoint on that wall, remove it and slide a tape in behind the wall till it hits or locates a stud. You can then work out your stud spacing from there. Normal stud spacings are around 16 inches which is 450mm in metric. Hope that helps.
I wonder if sandwiched a layer of portland cement.
Aston Mowing Good luck
I nearly resorted to this hammer method a couple of days ago when I bought a second inaccurate stud sensor.
Instead I used a 1/6" drill bit. It worked but holes require filling after.
With several rare earth magnets in home... I can't believe I did not think of this and wish I had of seen this sooner. Would have saved me two trips to the store and over an hour of pissing about!
Great tip!
G'day Robert. Good little trick isn't it? Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback. Cheers mate.
Thanks Shane I was having troubles finding studs in my patio ceiling,, I will try your tricks
Luis FERNANDEZ-MALDONADO Good stuff Luis. Good luck. Cheers :-)
Damn I should have watched this before buying that beeping machine.
It's a pretty effective method mate. Give it a go. Cheers
There are a number of how-to DIY videos around, but this one has a great combo of humour and original solutions - hat's off to you mate for sparking a few light bulbs off in the ol' noggin :)
+Ben Lee No worries Ben. Glad you found it useful mate. Cheers
thankyou. I havent done any home projects without asking for help... or hiring someone and its nice to see that I can do things for myself.
That's fantastic S.D. Glad to be of assistance. Cheers 👍😁
Genius. I ended up using a studfinder that i didn't want to go and dig up from the tool room; I stopped on this vid before, but in the first few seconds, I thought it was one of those parody videos and passed it by. I was looking up something else and happened on your anchor video and realized you were not just joking around. I should've watched this whole thing initially. thanks for all the tips..
Thanks Jennifer. I appreciate the comment. Next time you want something done make sure you check out my channel first:-) Cheers
This worked! I went to Home Depot and purchased a magnet. Tried your method at home and found the studs 16 inches apart. Thanks for the tips.
Awesome! Well done Anel and thanks for the feedback 👍😁
You, my friend, are brilliant!! Thank you for taking the time to post these videos...simple!
Thank you so much. Just tried it and you saved me a massive headache. Love the videos. You are a star.
Glad you found the vid useful Anthony 👍😁🇦🇺
I've been wanting to hang a pegboard in my kitchen, but I've been putting it off because I didn't know how to find the stud without spending money on a stud finder. I'm going to try this method. It makes so much sense and is inexpensive. Thank you.
+Rhonda Rhodes Good stuff Rhonda. Good luck with it. Cheers
With your suggestion, it took me literally 5 seconds to find the stud. Now I'm ready to put up the peg board in my kitchen that will be strong enough to hold up my pots and pans. Thanks for your help.
My pleasure Rhonda :-)
That is immense! Probably the best DIY trick I've ever heard! Thank you!
Michael Gilchrist Good stuff Michael. Glad you liked it mate. Don't forget to share it. Cheers mate

After my most expensive stud finder failed me, this method worked great, Thank you
Good to hear Madan. I'm glad you tried my method. Cheers
Cute trick, it's more effective than my electronic stud finder on textured walls. Two points to you sir
Thanks Nin. Appreciate the comment. Cheers
Very cool, Knackers.
You sure have some great tips! Cheers.
Just liked and subscribed to your channel. Really did enjoy this video. Will really help me!
I built one of these just like Shane shows , and it works great !!
A tip of the hat to Shane and his great DIY tips !
Brilliant, informative and entertaining. Nice one Knacker.
I just bought a stupid stud finder. IM RETURNING IT TOMORROW! Its so easy IT'S GENIUS! GREAT TIP! Thanks
Of course most of us have used a magnetic stud-finder before... but I was impressed with the added idea of the string & washer to find the stud all the way down. Brilliant buddy, thanks much.
No worries Mastermason. Thanks for the comment. Cheers
shaneconlan1
Thanks, buddy! Not only was it very informative, but it was fun to watch, too. Thanks much for the upload.
You my friend are a genious! Fantastic tip with the magnet, saved me a small fortune on a stud finder.
Thanks Matt. Have a beer with the money you saved:-) Cheers mate
I laughed very hard at several points in your video! Very fun, and GREAT tip! Going to make mine now!
Thanks Julie. Glad you liked the video and you'll love the magnet. Cheers
Brilliant. Thank you and for the added Aussie Humour. A UK fan.
Anna Sterling No worries Anna👍Out of interest, you may want to checked out my recently updated Stud Finder video....
Whoops pressed the send button to early😊 Here’s the link to the updated video. Cheers👍😁🇦🇺 th-cam.com/video/OQd_kQHLkys/w-d-xo.html
@@diyforknuckleheads Thank you I'll do that. Have a good day/evening?
DUDE!!!!!!!! YOU ROCK!!!! I threw out $30 on a stud finder that didn't even work, I wish I would have watched your video earlier!!!! Cheeers!!
+Arpad Kopenczei Mate those 30 dollar finders are useless. Go the magnet every time. Cheers
That is amazing! Thanks for the info. You're awesome and love the humor! Have a blessed day!
+DGFerguson78 Glad you liked it DG. Cheers :-)
Where was this video two weeks ago! Very nice trick! I will use this for the rest of my life.
Glad you liked it Dewey! Cheers mate
Great !! Cannot believe it, it can be soooo simple & perfect !! Thanks. It was a fantastic informative video.
Thanks Ajay, appreciate the comment mate.
you are the man, very good tip, keep your very informative videos coming. Thank you.
Will do Charlie. Thanks mate :-)
great video tip and nice and clean no mess and like you say its always best to use just the right amount of pressure and let the drill and drill bit do the work
Thanks for your comment Blackuyuyi. Much appreciated. 11kg is fairly heavy. If l was you l would try and find at least one timber stud to screw a wall fixing to and then use a Wall Mate for the other fixing. If you cant find a stud l would probably go for a wall toggle for each fixing. Check out my latest video on how to put up a shelf. It shows how to install a wall toggle. Check out the weight loading on the back of the wall mate packet. It varies as to what size of wall mate you use. Cheers
This was useful information i needed. I didn't expect it to be entertaining.
Thanks Doc! Glad you found it useful 👍😁
great vid mate, wish all advice videos had personalities like yours :)
Cheers Tim. Appreciate the comment mate. Have a good one.
I like this method better then knocking or looking for nail insets. Brilliant delivery too
Cheers mate! Glad you found it useful 👍😁
DIYForKnuckleheads useful, thrifty and well presented.cheers
I love your videos. Very helpful, and very enjoyable to watch.Thank you for doing these.
No worries Dave. Thanks for watching. Cheers
your videos are good! I am confident to DIM.. do it myself! yay thanks!
Yesenia Diaz Glad l could help Yesenia and thanks for taking the time to leave me some feedback. Cheers :-)
Fantastic mate. I've just went a purchased a magnet but i'm raging now that i've seen your handy tip about the magnet in a hard drive. I had an old external hard drive sitting about so i took it apart and got the magnets out of them. They work like a treat. Cheers mate :-)
Those hard drive magnets are pretty powerful Frazer. Thats for watching mate and for your feedback. Cheers :-)
You are so cool! Thank you for the great info. I'm going to go find a magnet right now!
Glad l could help Sonja. Happy stud finding:-) Cheers
Ding-dong - I had an old hard drive, took out the magnets and used a piece of cotton to form a pendulum. Swing it gently backwards and forwards and hey-presto, it sticks to the screws. I marked them with masking tap, drill into the stud frame timber and put in some screws. This enabled me to hang a very heavy framed mirror. All thanks to this video. Cheers!
Well done Imacnz and thanks for the feedback 👍
Up until 3 am watching your vids. Enjoyed them all but this was my fav. Thanks from Canada eh.
Thanks Tim! Must visit Canada one day. It sounds like an amazing place. I do have an Aunty living in Toronto so that would be a good excuse….One day. Cheers mate.
shaneconlan1 Toronto is just around the corner from me. Mus t say though your home has always been the one I'd like to visit. Just yanked the magnets out of an old hard drive!
I was curious as I need to find studs so I watched. Then I was really irritated but I watched for the hell of it. then I actually laughed and thought oh well better keep looking, but it continued and to my suprise you showed something amazing that limits cost and space. Then, I subscribed. Great stuff mate!
+RC Rockarollacola Thanks for your perseverance RC and for the sub. Cheers
G'day Del, thanks heaps for the great comment. Much appreciated. I'm glad my little tips help. Cheers:)
Wonderful Tutorials. Funny intros. Realistic home repair questions answered. Good job! Cheers
Thank you, I loved the vid by the way. I'm not really a DIY type of guy but I subscribed anyway because your vids are interesting and pretty funny. thanks again
Brilliant, thanks from a female just now having to learn to do all this for herself, worked perfectly, and your funny with it as well not condescending like most videos are, again thank u so much
+rosie findlay No worries Rosie :-) Glad to help. Cheers
Your Videos are absolutely awesome.Keep the videos coming
Debbie Vaters Thanks Debbie, l'm glad you like them. Your comments much appreciated. Cheers :-)
Shane, another great idea and you make learning fun! Thank you for the help. Sincerely, Doug.
+ate508 Thanks Doug. Have a good one mate. :-)
Great video...extremely informative. Thanks mate you have made my next project whole lot easier.
I bought my first house recently and very excited to start with some DIY projects. The studs gave me a hard time installing curtain rods (and i didn't even know there is something called a stud finder :P). Thanks for sharing the tip !! I will definitely try it out.
I would recommend you to number the videos so that subscribers can watch the entire playlist sequentially.
Thanks for watching Anuj and for the tip regarding numbering the videos. Cheers mate
Absolutely brill Mate! I was about to give in and buy one of those beepers, the magnet is much more cool. Mind you, I liked your first solution, provided you have a couple of bags of plaster handy. Loved the wedding photo too and glad you had an Okker lunatic lowering the tone for the day! Great stuff Shane.
Bloody fabulous! Thank you brother. Russell
Awesome! Worked with a magnet from an old 2.5" laptop hard drive, which is much smaller than the magnet in this video. Also didn't work until I made the handle with tape.
Well done....glad it worked 👍😁🇦🇺
Great job bud worked perfect
Dude this is sweet! I needed to screw my fishtank stand into the wall but had no clue were the studs were and I did this and it worked its the best idea ever mate!
absolute brilliance man..kudos! subscribed!
Cheers Jimmy and thanks for the sub.
I didn't have any magnets handy but I did find studs in my wall by knocking. I wanted to be able hang my cloths but I never installed brackets before. Thanks for the video!
Good stuff Psovegeta! There's nothing wrong with the old knocking on the wall method. Cheers
You are awesome!! Best trick ever, thank so much. ......Crystal
Great Tip! Thanks Uncle Knacker! I'll be looking for that rare earth magnet mate. If I ever get back to Oz I'll have to visit.
Thanks Jack! Give it a go mate. Cheers
