    Virtually every other DIY mud video says pull mud off the side of the knife but I have tried your method (before seeing this video) & I think it works best for me. I cannot heat the room yet to dry my mud so leaving it for a day or 2 to dry is no problem. I am switching from task to task anyway. Thanks.

I am in the process of turning my small shed (12' x 8' ) into a living space. I feel very confident in drywalling after watching your expert video. Any advice for drywalling a ceiling that you know will have daisy-chain pocket lights? Should I hang one sheet, cut hole, install light and keep repeating until the last sheet is up? Thank you for taking the time to provide us DIYers with such wonderful videos. You are making a difference in the world!

    • @andrewcarr2431
      @andrewcarr2431 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mesh tape only works with powdered or "hot" mud, the stuff you mix and goes off in an hour. The chemicals in the joint compound do not like mesh tape and it will crack over time. Regardless of what the manufacturer or others tell you. You can finish coat mesh tape with regular joint compound but I only use it for repair work, otherwise it is paper all the way.

    @andrewcarr2431 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    great lecture. On 3 ways the method I was shown, as it can be confusing to beginners (I believe it was "Vancouver Carpenter", thanks man!) is to think of it as traffic lanes. You have a left and a right lane (either side of the angle), so do the same "lanes" all at the same time. So left side of the wall up and down, left side of the ceiling from corner out into the middle of the room and left side of the wall on the other side where it meets the ceiling, corner outwards towards the middle. Then do the right side when dry (or vice versa depending on your preference). This possibly sounds worse with my explanation but after some trial and error it soon becomes automatic when you work on a corner.

    I still suck at doing corners and butt joints after 4 years. I just end up sanding more. If I'm impatient I use the corner tool and feather it out with a 6" knife. But I've noticed the corner tool creates too much of a rounded inside corner.

  • @curtisbme
    @curtisbme 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm a huge fan of the Perfect 90 type corner bead as it is stronger, straighter, quicker and more importantly for us do-it-yourselfers, far more forgiving. I would often goof with paper tape and cut the edge in places or get wrinkles when I was first doing it. While I am a bit more skilled now, I'm no pro but have never had a problem with this made-for-corners tape.
    I also now like to use 90 min mud when possible as it lets me do a more than one side of the corner per day. 90 min vs quicker hot mud as the extra time makes it more forgiving for us slower, less skilled DIY folks.
