This tutorial is one of the best I've seen! I always mitered the corners, thought about using the drywall tape but this seems like a step above! Going to try it today!! Thank you very much!!😎👍👍🙏🙏
You need to cut the header piece so it extends past the corner a half inch on each side bottom cut I called it a dog ear cut. I have this video on my TH-cam channel how to cut corner bead if you want to check it out it’s the same is metal bead . you’re cutting your header piece an inch too short. It needs to be cut on the bottom half but not the upper half at each end. So there will be no hole to fill our cover
Wrong! Put the horizontal piece of cornerbead on First. And butt the vertical pieces into horizontal. Use joint tape if you want it’s still thinner than the Bead on the cornerbead. If you want to keep a low profile to fill in gap.. cut a triangle piece of metal off one side of bead and slide metal under one side of gap
Cut the header piece 2 inches too long. Make a cut in the bottom flange from edge of tape to center of bead. Make this cut 1 inch from one left side end of the bead and at a very clean 90 degree angle. (If metal bead, make a square cut from edge of flange towards the center bead 1 inch from left edge) Bend this bit of bead over so that it is parallel to the top flange of the bead and will sit nicely on to paper face of the wall when the header is installed. Measure from this cut, along the bottom flange over to the other end of the bead and make another similar cut. This must be the same distance from the first cut, as the opening is wide. Bend this flange down also so that it will sit nicely over the face of the drywall wall when header is installed. This little flap should also be about 1 inch in width . I usually tap the protruding bead on the 1 inch flaps down with a hammer ever so slightly. Install this header piece so that it fits nicely along the op. There should be a 1 inch flap at either side of the header hanging down on the wall over the gap that we are trying to cover. Now cut and fit the two side legs and install over the top of these flaps. These flaps make lining the side legs and the top header up very easy. No "clickers" when you run your corner bead with a fill coat of mud. If the flaps are not perfect 90 degree cuts, they may need a little trimming to fit perfectly.
maybe consider? put vertices or uprights first. then cut a inch or so off just the bottom angle depending on the width of product. do same on opposing end. quick easy professional with no random corner tape pieces or measuring
Hey I’ve had a few methods through the years dealing with those nasty corners, lately houses are doing return windows so there always lots of them!! I wait til all bead is installed make sure no regular mud gets in there and fill them with concrete fill, it doesn’t crack sets quick and and very quick method. There will be doubters but I started doing this 15 years ago in sisters home and not one corner cracked!!
I do that too sometimes. Over top or underneath, makes little difference, except overtop would in theory hold things in place better if there's building movement later on. If I do overtop I use the peeled corner bead paper, because it's thinner but still strong enough. Putting me down isn't really necessary because I've never claimed to have any special talents.
@@malvarez8484 definitely true, hey I just make videos for fun, I am just an average taper, and always have room to learn. Honestly I appreciate criticism as I find it constructive, keep it real bro.
Also the header piece goes on first every time , trust me .
I use a little piece of mesh on each one before I put on bead , works good
Thats a good idea. Probably faster than what I'm doing

Never had that problem and I use the same bead. Fiba Fuse is thinner than paper tape and its stronger.
So if you set aqua bead in fresh mud -when your fixing corners like that - no need for spraying water in the bead?
Good video.. I've been using fibafuse tape .working good so far

I tape my bead corners with Fibafuse
would love to see how you do a outside 3 way! good vids thanks!

Mitre them and finish with mesh tape/durabond where they meet. That's my go-to.

Learnt something new. Good job.
Awesome video very helpful. How’s it going with what’s going on
Seems like it would be easier to tape the intersection first then put the corner bead on.
Yes some Shackers do it that way

Thanks I should try that, I'd trust it wouldn't crack too. I always use concrete fill for prefillling large drywall gaps, it's very durable
45-degree angles are your friends. Would you like to borrow my tin snips?
Put the paper on first then the bead
Do u box your bead? I just started and its awesome
Just put a piece of paper on it. Time saver
Fiba fuse tape works great too...
If I have an archway. Rounded door entrance. And I want to square it. What’s best tool to cut into the metal arched shaped corner bead? Sawzall ?
Sawzall or oscillating multi-tool 💋
@@wildwoodtop thanks boss. It’s that corner bead I was thinking of
Thanks for advice
Lol we don't even do anything to ours but prob if it was ro big put some tqp pr mesh in it
Great tip. But watching 8mins was nearly impossible lol
Yeah I reviewed it after posting and gave up half way. I should've condensed it a bit further
Good shit!!!! Thanks man!!
Here Here Pascal
That’s is shocking pal
Fiber fuse
Omg dude😂
flat tape dude come on
There's no way to guarantee there will never be a crack....trust me, I'm a finisher with over 20 years experience
20 years doesn’t mean jack shit
I know guys who can tape better then you and have worked 2 years 😂
So wrong
That’s what average tapers do, put regular tape underneath the bead when your taping. watched all your vids. Average run of the mill taper

@@Interior_Works 😝, you know how it is. So much flexing in our trade
