I am a 40 year pro, over 2500 new homes and still going. That was the best video I ever saw. You do things almost exactly as I do. Any amateur watching this video do everything as he says. You could not get any better advice especially on the clockwise/counterclockwise directions which are very important. When I learned how to use a drywall router I wore a regular dial wristwatch to help remind me which way was counterclockwise. Amateurs, Ignore any negative comments that some people have made, this is the way to install drywall.
Brad Allan Well said Brad. I agree with you 100%. I too am in the Drywall trade and this video is perfect example on how to use a cut out tool and install Drywall. Local 675..Drywall
40 years pro - BULLSHIT!!! 2500 homes.... unless you fix a pop up screw and run to the next home, and count it as one of your homes. But seriously, what do you get from pretending to be a drywaller on youtube ?
Great vid! You nailed it. You pushed the wires in if they were sticking out from the outlet box, and you caught the sheetrock as it fell down from the door frame after it's completely cut. When I built the house, both of those happened to me. My drywall guys were professional, efficient, fast, and friendly. But in one case, the wires were sticking out of the box and got stripped. In another case, one guy missed catching the sheetrock, and it fell down and chopped off a capped half inch copper pipe coming out of the wall. Water everywhere. They had to call the plumber back.
As a landlord always had fixing to shut down anything. As a builder last week we were using a temp valve on the water main for work water. I put to much grease on my expander when I see the valve so when I went to shut it off for the day it came off with a full services worth of water.👻👻👻👻 I managed to jam the fitting back into the main while yelling out the explanation of how to find the tools to go out and open the meter put and shut off the service. A trim guy was doing a bid when it happened otherwise I would be SOL. Also don't drop two pallets of flat packed cabinets in front of the water main that you may use for temp service. Straight up Charlie Chaplin screen at night, in the winter
Good stuff. I have a DeWalt cordless 20volt and you were spot on with the direction of the cut on the different items. I used to just do “whatever” and once I figured out counterclockwise made my plugs/switches/lights/vents cleaner and easier and my doors/windows clockwise my life got easier. I wish I’d have seen your video long before I used the trial and error method lol. Your video will make tons of newer drywall guys lives easier that’s for certain. Great job man ✌️

Great video, I was a hanger for 28 years & you did everything I did. Porter cable also makes a really good router bit for windows and doors, the best I remember it's a 3/16 bit, so so a hair smaller than the 1/4.
As an electrician, I have become pro at uncovering cans/ receps and all that. I’m also having a house built right now and they are hanging drywall right now. I’ve noticed a lot of these marks. Pretty cool
He makes it look so easy. Subscribed. One suggestion… You skipped through the best part… The actual cutting of the boxes. Would’ve loved to see what it looked like on the inside once done. And how you get to the outside edge of the box after you start in the middle of the box.
I am a drywall contractor of 27 years and watch a few videos now and then most of them I find to be WRONG! Every thing in this video is spot on and I agree with with the exception that I like standard point bits because they don’t break as often. Great video man
@@imanocayetano1783 Use guide point bits to save your hearing, then learn how to use a router properly so you won't break bits like this guy. Keep a standard point around in case you need to cut holes in drywall where you cut along the stud to save having to re-frame (as in a renovation). Personally I use a larger bit, they wear out before they break. Then when I router around plugs I go at a bit of an angle to make it look cleaner. Not a huge bit, between one quarter and one eighth of an inch. They're called "X-bits" where I live, and of course you need the appropriate adapter (collet). I got one in a multi-pack at a hardware store that sells "Roto-Zip" brand stuff, although you can get a better router from almost anyone.
The counter clockwise on boxes and clockwise on door are some really good info. I used a router once and it felt really uncomfortable using it and that might of been from going clockwise while I was trying to cut a outlet. Glad this will help with my job in the next few weeks!
thank you, nice tip I hate routers to cut out sheetrock because nobody actually explain to me how to use it right, maybe they assume that I already know, but you just clarify it to me, thanks God bless you
too bad this method has made drywallers lazy as fuck. the amount of times ive had drywallers forget about plugs and switchs because they just throw the sheets up as fast as they can is unreal. A GC got shocked by kicking in the drywall to find a missing receptacle that was buried by the drywallers and the circuits had all been livened up. And than the even bigger piss off is when drywallers go hard on the INSIDE of the box with those and slice the shit out of the wires. I've had ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS where the drywaller scored the copper conducted within a few cm of the entry into the device box, making the wire unusable. Requiring the drywall to be taken off and loosen any anchoring along the studs to gain any amount of slack on the wire so i can make a joint in the box to make the wire useable again. The speed this offers often results in problems for electricians while offering speedy and shotty installation from the drywallers.
The reason for using the 1/4” bit for cutting around doors and windows is because the 5/32” will break from having to cut those looong passes, being that these tools have high rpms and the bits get very hot, very fast... trust me, I learned the hard way!! Great video and excellent work!!!
Very cool. I'm a plumber that does a lot of service and repair work, no new construction, I'm always opening up drywall, but sure wish that tool collected dust as you go. In new construction, not an issue, but I'm cutting when people live there.
This is great! You totally explained the significance as to why you would need to cut counterclockwise for outlets. I plan on buying a router now when re-doing one of my rooms to a project home studio space. I was worried about cutting out the all outlets after the drywall was put back up. Thanks for posting this video!
Very helpful answered all the questions I had about a drywall router. Easy to understand how and the why behind doing things. Excellent work, keep it up.
That was a work of Art, how fast and cleanly you did those cuts. You make it look easy. But from trying to freehand a cut-out hole using a Cut-Out Tool for the 1st time. I know its far from easy to learn to use well as you did...
Great video buddy, I own a Remodeling Company here in South Texas, and we are doing our drywall more often than not. I am used to the traditional measuring and drywall saw but am planning to upgrade to thus method...
We don't even mark the outlets with a pencil on the bottom wall sheets - just lean the sheet out and mark it with the hatchet end of the hammer...Excellent video!
There we go I learned from some old school cats myself and that's how they marked EVERYTHING rafters were marked with the hatchet for lid guide boxes were marked also with hatchet and kicker
Awesome, I wish the New Zealand Drywall installers (Or Gibbys, as we call them in New Zealand) would watch this. The amount of power points and switches they cover over in every house is ridiculous! You guys look like the real deal 👍
Funny, I worked with a guy who lived and worked in the UK, then NZ, and then Canada, he says everywhere he goes, it's always the same thing, drywallers cover up plugs, and the tapers (is it stoppers over there?) They all got messy vehicles. I laughed cause its true, I'll clean my vehicle but the next day it's a disaster.
@@tubestick00 Ha ha, Ive been a sparky nearly 20 years. Most of the volume housing we do we average about 10-15 switches and power points covered up per house. I wish we could get new Gibbys, but its not up to me who installs the wall coverings.
There's nothing more annoying than having to hand-screw something together th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1McjgiqTNcTjrhvRvJWcrk5bzTeQW-Wn except for the pain in your wrist that is. This addition to my tool kit is great and I can get a lot done without all the pain and annoyance. The battery last's a long time and I have yet to run out of power when doing a small project (granted I am saying small project because I'm no construction worker). The only thing that I wish it had was an LED or pair of LEDs to indicate when it was charging and whether or not the charge was complete (or full).
Great video. I haven't used a small router for installation of dryway yet, but I realize how it makes the job much faster for the sheetrock team to install. Thanks for sharing.
Glad I stumbled upon this. Great instruction on this tool. I'm an electrician and been wondering if a purchase would be justified, but now I see how useful they can be ;)
Well done found a couple of jobs in my time where they had installed the door jambs before the drywall I found it add but didn't know any better so I bought that tool it took some practice to get used to it. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for this excellent video. Great narration. Great direction. Much appreciated! Thank you for considering the other people on the job site. You seem like an excellent human and I thank you again.
Wow I need to get myself one of these. I always did it by premeasuring everything and then cutting with an oscillating tool, and hoping I get a good fit. This is so much faster.
I like to go in before the rock is delivered and mark all the boxes, even the lights in the ceilings with orange marker paint. I have my own shorthand with the paint. For the lower boxes I spray a short line, and then the lines get longer the higher up the box is. If there's two boxes at different heights on the same side of the stud, like for a tv, then I just stack the lines. For the ceiling I just put a dot on the floor for lights, squares, or rectangles for vent fans, or HVAC vents. We don't usually measure the boxes for the bottom boards on the walls, just put them in place and stab a hole with a keyhole saw while looking down the back side of the board, much faster than measuring. I like that you said you take the time to push wires in the boxes. There's too many tradesmen that don't think about the man that comes behind them.
5:59 cleanest cuts I’ve ever seen 💯💯💯 need some of this at my job frfr, we end up having the sheet rockers going back fixing them right and us taping the box lights that are uncut right 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Remember when routers first came out. Fellow boarder went on his own with a new contractor. He never marked ceiling potlights. He just jammed it into the board and when finished, looked like a Rand McNally map
Hi, I am electrician in the Netherlands and saw your video with awe. Here we drill round hole and use a self-strapping box for outlets and then we pull in the wires. I started for a try out with placing boxes and found myself a router that could do the job, it saves me hours of work. Regrettably Xbit is not availeble here, can you send me details of it so I can find a compareble bit here? Love the way you work, thumbs up
One of the best and quick videos on this topic. But then he goes clockwise against his advice??? Not a big deal, but.... Thanks. Any old timers like me when the standard OP was sight down the back and mark the sides with your drywall hammer, measure to the upper sheet, score with a knife, and knock out the square? Thank God for new inventions ;-)
As for me I own a Rita-Zip which I’ve had for some 8 years and it’s still absolutely brilliant I zip out window, door frames as well as electrical boxes a buddy even cut out a turntable on his Rail Road so I agree with you what ever brand you have it’s a great tool to have to hand
Awesome video, even made point to tuck wires in for us electricians. As much as we make sure to tuck them in, we still might miss a box here and there. It sure sucks having your wires chewed up by a router.
for metal stud framing. most mark on the dry before sheets are installed (vertically), the outlets near the floor are std 14'' up/center and from the center of the metal stud to the screw holes for the plate cover is exactly 2''. when installing vertically, 16'' stud lines are usually marked on the sheet prior to install, so all you have to do is look which side the box is on and mark the box right after marking the 16'' o.c studs. eliminating the time to go around and mark the floor. remember is all about production. kudo's to this video. thumbs up!
I just recently started doing drywall constantly as long as taping and mudding but i was interested in the tool of course u look more professional and makes ur job alot easier ive seen others use it .. And wanted to know a few more tips other then just making a cut u showed alot and I cought it all thanks ...
Nice video 👍 Over in the UK we do things differently ( no surprise 🤣) Hardly anyone has a Drywall cutter . I've had mine a while but because Drywall is only a part of what we do i don't use my drywall cutter anywhere near as much as you guys do . I've always kept a pad saw on me to cut out the start and finish of a cut where the depth guage/ guide gets in the way but this last week i've been using it without the depth gauge/guide and find i can get in tighter and no longer need to use the pad saw .
Cool, no eye or ear protection needed. They always get in the way. Also no dust. I Usually can’t breathe wearing some mask to prevent issues. You have properly shown the correct way to use this tool for a beginner. Everything must be safety first when demonstrating proper Technique.. Thank you for cutting around electricity and wood with perfect precision and safety. Awesome!

I just randomly searched what drywallers use to cut and got this video. Didn’t expect to learn about the clockwise use of the router. Very cool video
Dude great video. Why can’t every video be this straight to the point and informative.
they want that ad money, unfortunately. so they stretch the video out as much as they can.

@@imanocayetano1783 Use guide point bits to save your hearing, then learn how to use a router properly so you won't break bits like this guy. Keep a standard point around in case you need to cut holes in drywall where you cut along the stud to save having to re-frame (as in a renovation). Personally I use a larger bit, they wear out before they break. Then when I router around plugs I go at a bit of an angle to make it look cleaner. Not a huge bit, between one quarter and one eighth of an inch. They're called "X-bits" where I live, and of course you need the appropriate adapter (collet). I got one in a multi-pack at a hardware store that sells "Roto-Zip" brand stuff, although you can get a better router from almost anyone.
Been doing drywall for over 40 years. Nice job on the info and camera work. Ignore the ones who gave it a thumbs down, they're idiots.
EXCELLENT job on explaining . This kind of advice is truly appreciated . Thank-you
I'm building my first wall (12x45), and this video is a tremendous help. Thank you
Glad it helped!
May be the most informative DIY/professional video ever seen
The counter clockwise on boxes and clockwise on door are some really good info. I used a router once and it felt really uncomfortable using it and that might of been from going clockwise while I was trying to cut a outlet. Glad this will help with my job in the next few weeks!
thank you, nice tip I hate routers to cut out sheetrock because nobody actually explain to me how to use it right, maybe they assume that I already know, but you just clarify it to me, thanks God bless you
THis has blown my mind man. This has got to be the fastest way to drywall hands down
too bad this method has made drywallers lazy as fuck. the amount of times ive had drywallers forget about plugs and switchs because they just throw the sheets up as fast as they can is unreal. A GC got shocked by kicking in the drywall to find a missing receptacle that was buried by the drywallers and the circuits had all been livened up.
And than the even bigger piss off is when drywallers go hard on the INSIDE of the box with those and slice the shit out of the wires. I've had ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS where the drywaller scored the copper conducted within a few cm of the entry into the device box, making the wire unusable. Requiring the drywall to be taken off and loosen any anchoring along the studs to gain any amount of slack on the wire so i can make a joint in the box to make the wire useable again.
The speed this offers often results in problems for electricians while offering speedy and shotty installation from the drywallers.
@@rmyd027 absolutely. And I am a hanger. I work for wpi. Local 1503. Last job there was 36 buried boxes on one floor of student housing in corvallis.
The reason for using the 1/4” bit for cutting around doors and windows is because the 5/32” will break from having to cut those looong passes, being that these tools have high rpms and the bits get very hot, very fast... trust me, I learned the hard way!! Great video and excellent work!!!
I got a question, can I use this bit on a actual drill? Would it work the same?
@@j.rjunior5584 only one way to find out brother
Your the first person who brought of the jerk who hits my wires and lights. Much respect.
Truly appreciate this video, very well explained especially when he showed the technique/direction on how to use the tool
*You did an excellent job with this video.* Thanks for explaining all the details. Very professional. 👍👍👍
Very cool. I'm a plumber that does a lot of service and repair work, no new construction, I'm always opening up drywall, but sure wish that tool collected dust as you go. In new construction, not an issue, but I'm cutting when people live there.
Just have a helper with a shop vac follow the router around the hole. We do a lot of repair work too, and very little dust gets by if done right.
Wish I had seen this video a month ago. I just finished hanging three rooms in my remodel and this would have made it much easier.
Top notch video, Homes; quick, clear explanation. Thanks a bunch!
Great info here! Really like the way you mark box locations.
This is great! You totally explained the significance as to why you would need to cut counterclockwise for outlets. I plan on buying a router now when re-doing one of my rooms to a project home studio space. I was worried about cutting out the all outlets after the drywall was put back up. Thanks for posting this video!
Good video: to the point; got right to it with no long intro; good camera work. Nice.
Wow, you're really good at cutting out them boxes, dude
Good video. Well explained. I was the guy using tape measure and keyhole saw on every box. Thank you.
Very helpful answered all the questions I had about a drywall router. Easy to understand how and the why behind doing things. Excellent work, keep it up.
That was a work of Art, how fast and cleanly you did those cuts. You make it look easy. But from trying to freehand a cut-out hole using a Cut-Out Tool for the 1st time. I know its far from easy to learn to use well as you did...
It is because you have to train all the specific muscles to hold the tool right. It's like anything even language learning is largely muscle memory.
Great video, I'm a carpenter but sometimes gotta do my own drywall.
I think I need one of these tools now.
Thumbs up bud.
Not a great carpenter and if you didn't already know this
Great video buddy, I own a Remodeling Company here in South Texas, and we are doing our drywall more often than not. I am used to the traditional measuring and drywall saw but am planning to upgrade to thus method...
DONT
Just came across this. Awesome video. Super informative
great video , thx for the great info. your works looks really well done i wish every sheetrock guy would do as neat as you
We don't even mark the outlets with a pencil on the bottom wall sheets - just lean the sheet out and mark it with the hatchet end of the hammer...Excellent video!
There we go I learned from some old school cats myself and that's how they marked EVERYTHING rafters were marked with the hatchet for lid guide boxes were marked also with hatchet and kicker
*or kicker
Thank you for sharing your experiences of work i really found this video very useful. God bless you
Thank you. You explained very clearly and it helped me.
Don’t do drywall, but you made me feel like I need this. 👍
Awesome, I wish the New Zealand Drywall installers (Or Gibbys, as we call them in New Zealand) would watch this. The amount of power points and switches they cover over in every house is ridiculous!
You guys look like the real deal 👍
I have never seen a gib fixer cover one over...
In 17 years.
You should get new fixers.
Funny, I worked with a guy who lived and worked in the UK, then NZ, and then Canada, he says everywhere he goes, it's always the same thing, drywallers cover up plugs, and the tapers (is it stoppers over there?) They all got messy vehicles.
I laughed cause its true, I'll clean my vehicle but the next day it's a disaster.
@@tubestick00 Ha ha, Ive been a sparky nearly 20 years. Most of the volume housing we do we average about 10-15 switches and power points covered up per house. I wish we could get new Gibbys, but its not up to me who installs the wall coverings.
I'm an electrician by trade. Gonna start using these for retro fitting. Ty for info. And tip about pushing our wires back
Electricians suck
@@ranjodh6 we suck titties. Stay mad
Excellently presented and very informative.
There's nothing more annoying than having to hand-screw something together th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1McjgiqTNcTjrhvRvJWcrk5bzTeQW-Wn except for the pain in your wrist that is. This addition to my tool kit is great and I can get a lot done without all the pain and annoyance. The battery last's a long time and I have yet to run out of power when doing a small project (granted I am saying small project because I'm no construction worker). The only thing that I wish it had was an LED or pair of LEDs to indicate when it was charging and whether or not the charge was complete (or full).
I like to shake hands with every body who show how to do something for nothing like you. Thank you for your instruction and talent.
Great video. I haven't used a small router for installation of dryway yet, but I realize how it makes the job much faster for the sheetrock team to install. Thanks for sharing.
Superb video, great information and demonstration.
Glad I stumbled upon this. Great instruction on this tool. I'm an electrician and been wondering if a purchase would be justified, but now I see how useful they can be ;)
Outstanding job of explaining and showing how it's done.. Much appreciated. 👍
Well done found a couple of jobs in my time where they had installed the door jambs before the drywall I found it add but didn't know any better so I bought that tool it took some practice to get used to it. Thanks for the tips.
NIIIIICCCEEEE!!! Excellent video, great information and demonstration. This was helpful, clean, and well done. Thank you so much!
I rarely comment on videos, but I must agree you were quick to the point and informative.
wow, so amazing, thanks for this, now i learned the proper direction of how to cut using this router, really a very good tip.
Thanks for this excellent video. Great narration. Great direction. Much appreciated! Thank you for considering the other people on the job site. You seem like an excellent human and I thank you again.
Wow I need to get myself one of these. I always did it by premeasuring everything and then cutting with an oscillating tool, and hoping I get a good fit. This is so much faster.
1/4 bit cuts coreboard or shaft board nicely. Saved my shoulder the day we had to cut the access doors.
Yes it does! Works great for that
Very nice! The company I work for could learn a lot from this video. Thanks
Just remember this: cOUnTer clockwise along OUTside edges (outlets/j boxes). Clockwise along inside edges (doors, windows)
"In Time"
Clockwise inside
Fantastic video. Very Informative and fun to watch. Thanks👍👍👍
Great video so we’ll explained for a diy’er like myself! Thank you so much.
I like to go in before the rock is delivered and mark all the boxes, even the lights in the ceilings with orange marker paint. I have my own shorthand with the paint. For the lower boxes I spray a short line, and then the lines get longer the higher up the box is. If there's two boxes at different heights on the same side of the stud, like for a tv, then I just stack the lines. For the ceiling I just put a dot on the floor for lights, squares, or rectangles for vent fans, or HVAC vents. We don't usually measure the boxes for the bottom boards on the walls, just put them in place and stab a hole with a keyhole saw while looking down the back side of the board, much faster than measuring. I like that you said you take the time to push wires in the boxes. There's too many tradesmen that don't think about the man that comes behind them.
5:59 cleanest cuts I’ve ever seen 💯💯💯 need some of this at my job frfr, we end up having the sheet rockers going back fixing them right and us taping the box lights that are uncut right 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Thank you i never stop learning
Remember when routers first came out. Fellow boarder went on his own with a new contractor. He never marked ceiling potlights. He just jammed it into the board and when finished, looked like a Rand McNally map
Your a good professional. Thanks for the training.
Omg, doors! How I never had this idea?! Buying one cutter tomorrow, thanks!
Hi, I am electrician in the Netherlands and saw your video with awe. Here we drill round hole and use a self-strapping box for outlets and then we pull in the wires. I started for a try out with placing boxes and found myself a router that could do the job, it saves me hours of work.
Regrettably Xbit is not availeble here, can you send me details of it so I can find a compareble bit here?
Love the way you work, thumbs up
One of the best and quick videos on this topic. But then he goes clockwise against his advice??? Not a big deal, but.... Thanks. Any old timers like me when the standard OP was sight down the back and mark the sides with your drywall hammer, measure to the upper sheet, score with a knife, and knock out the square? Thank God for new inventions ;-)
Nice to see a skilled man working the trade ... Hope you are UNION
My boy makes this look so much easier than it is. Mastering this tool as he does takes skill!
Great instructions. As a pro in this field, I would recommend a dust mask during these cutouts.. PPE's are a must in this field of work.
As for me I own a
Rita-Zip which I’ve had for some 8 years and it’s still absolutely brilliant I zip out window, door frames as well as electrical boxes a buddy even cut out a turntable on his Rail Road so I agree with you what ever brand you have it’s a great tool to have to hand
Rita zip?
Roto
brother dio that's smell checker for you
@@TheAudiostud it's a roto zip.and spell checker. Just wanted to let you know so you don't look stupid
As a Drywall finisher I appreciate this video.
As an electrician, id love to have this guy on my jobsite.
I feel the same way. All drywallers here are east indian piece rate workers who dont give a single shit. Buried boxes & nicked wires for days.
This is definitely a good video to learn from. Nice good!
Awesome video, even made point to tuck wires in for us electricians. As much as we make sure to tuck them in, we still might miss a box here and there. It sure sucks having your wires chewed up by a router.
Having the right tool and the proper knowledge to use it makes a so- so builder a pro for sure , great vid
Wow. Awesome video. Clear and concise.
This video answered all my questions and more! Great job!
for metal stud framing. most mark on the dry before sheets are installed (vertically), the outlets near the floor are std 14'' up/center and from the center of the metal stud to the screw holes for the plate cover is exactly 2''. when installing vertically, 16'' stud lines are usually marked on the sheet prior to install, so all you have to do is look which side the box is on and mark the box right after marking the 16'' o.c studs. eliminating the time to go around and mark the floor. remember is all about production. kudo's to this video. thumbs up!
Great video! Can’t stress enough the importance of a Lav-Mic. They’re cheap and super easy to use. Much respect.
I just recently started doing drywall constantly as long as taping and mudding but i was interested in the tool of course u look more professional and makes ur job alot easier ive seen others use it .. And wanted to know a few more tips other then just making a cut u showed alot and I cought it all thanks ...
Nice video 👍
Over in the UK we do things differently ( no surprise 🤣) Hardly anyone has a Drywall cutter . I've had mine a while but because Drywall is only a part of what we do i don't use my drywall cutter anywhere near as much as you guys do . I've always kept a pad saw on me to cut out the start and finish of a cut where the depth guage/ guide gets in the way but this last week i've been using it without the depth gauge/guide and find i can get in tighter and no longer need to use the pad saw .
Great video, nice to know you are also worrying about other trades. amazing job!!
Where do you find 5/32 collets for the Millwaukee cutout tool (router)? Thanks! Really helpful video.
Outstanding. I'm glad I found you. Thank you. Next on my list ryobi 18+1 router.
这个是什么型号
Awesome video! Very straight forward and I got exactly what I needed quickly!
Bought one today I’m tired of a drywall saw time to upgrade and I’m pretty sure the carpenters will be happy too
Seriously wonderful video. Thank you for sharing this trade information.
Cool, no eye or ear protection needed. They always get in the way. Also no dust. I Usually can’t breathe wearing some mask to prevent issues. You have properly shown the correct way to use this tool for a beginner. Everything must be safety first when demonstrating proper Technique.. Thank you for cutting around electricity and wood with perfect precision and safety. Awesome!
HOLY s#*! I have been living under a rock! That saves so much time 😳
Excellent.... Thanks for your help. Jesus bless you and your business!
Thank you so much for the video i really was in doubt how to use this tool but right now i just learned. I have in mind work with Drywall soon.
Excellent, concise video! Thank you 😊
Man that looked easy. That tool is sick!
Great video, very informative. Thank you sir.
Great video, quick and to the point. However, why don't you wear ear plugs and eye pro?
