Mike this might be a little help to you, put the ceiling on first as the wall sheets will help support the edges. put a little pencil mark on the ceiling sheet where the wall studs are to make it easier to line up for screwing, when putting the top wall sheet on screw along the bottom first as it will hold it in place. Never line butt ends up as it has less chance of moving in later times Now these are just suggestions but I have drywalled many a house. God Bless from your Canadian Friend.

@driftingdreamers5 3 дня назад

Great suggestions! Ty very much! 😎

@jennyphillips7496 3 дня назад

That's what I was thinking about the pincle marks. But I've never drywalled ever. I was just thinking to know where to screw it in cause there's a lot of money they have put into the shouse an I know they want it right as much as any viewer. Much love from Indiana 🤍

I was thinking if we were All there to help you and Lyssa ❤❤

@kellycarter1426 2 дня назад

Lyssa I received the same directions about holding up the drywall from my husband. I never knew my neck was so strong, lol. The shouse is looking amazing. A family that builds together stays together. Absolutely love the way you are strengthening your family foundation. ❤

@MelissaNY-Reviews 2 дня назад

Suggestion: for the ceiling, make T out if 2x4, then you’re just holding a 2x4 vs your arms over your head. Plus match non-cut edge to non cut edge, it will meet closure and less mud when tape.

@mcmartinez0x 2 дня назад

Mike It doesn’t matter if it’s just for storage take pride and what you’re doing it doesn’t take any more time being precise. You will eventually get the work done. But the hidden workmanship is just as important as what is going to be seen. I give you a 10 for effort. I understand that this is all new to you and you haven’t had any experience in this but your framaly has learned. there experience is there for you to learn from. Be safe continue your work and I pray that everything at the end will turn out for you guys. Advice don’t take shortcuts do it right the first time. Make every room as important as the next even the attic. Good luck but most important to be safe and take your time it will eventually get done.

Great team of helpers. Good job. It is amazing how a few pieces of plywood and dry wall can make it look so good!

@RockerNJ 3 дня назад

Great video. Love when you're doing busy work. Also, make yourself a T-Post out of 2x4 to help hold the drywall while doing ceiling pieces.

@driftingdreamers5 3 дня назад

I'll be glad when the hateful drywall is up and mudded. It looks like backbreaking work. In Lyssa's case, neck-breaking work. Y'all are doing great.

@jefree6960 День назад

What you need is a drywall t- square, will make your life a lot easier. And I think I would of started at the bottom so the top sheet would be the smaller one. And make sure to stagger the joints. Keep on trucking

@ronalds.bourgeois3365 3 дня назад

Mark the position of wall 2x4 on floor before put up sheetrock . Also when putting up ceiling, you could put a couple pieces of 2x4s about 1inch down as ledge to set sheet on as a extra hand.

Are you going to put a flush toilet or composting one in the cabin? The grey water you can drain out into the woods if you don’t have a septic system..David could trench a drain line lined with gravel and the end open as long as no septic water goes out on the ground..just curious..

suggestion for hanging Sheetrock alone or minimal help put temporary support runner along wall so only need hold unsupported put rock into runner side first then tip up for in corners can have 2 runner support slip in short end tip up then push sideways into the long runner now have end snd Side supported another way is to take 2x4 and make a tee (capital) from floor to ceiling minus thickness of Sheetrock this is use to prop up Sheetrock this really helps if you Short helper who can't reach the distance have them put 2x4 tee in place support tee work good when starting from wall with runner place end in runner slot push sheet up and slip in tee support will hold sheet in place while you adjust seam and anchor to joist
