Sorry to all the guys that have never use screen.

a year and a half without any cracks in any of the drywall seams and not tape was used so no tape is popping lose. Sanding the whole house is just a few hours in other videos. No I'm not an expert and you experts should be better than me, as I usually only do small drywall jobs, except when my house burns down by a kid arsonist. Check out other videos and you can see the final results. Thanks for your comments

I think drywall stilts are about the neatest invention for painters, drywallers, etc. I use them almost everyday. I ran over my first pair when going out to get some lunch. They were leaning against the car. oops, costly mistake $350.

@showllay I always use fiber in corners never a problem

@jman4339 did he use topping to tape ?

@jman4339 I haven't used a hawk in so long that I don't remember using one. I just use a box. It took several tries to learn to use a setting type joint compound... if I mix up a bucket full then I don't get very far before I have a hard mess in the bucket.... so, I just mix a mud box full at a time... slow way to go but I still get more accomplished in a day and far better job with less mud/less work.

this guy is a retard! you never tape with mesh and use mud..always durabond. and doesnt anybody use hawks in these vids anymore?

[showllay]

why do you use fibe tape in the corners it s the worst way to do it use a tape paper you dont know that you should come to work with me i will show you

[kwendzz]

terrible work...your going to sand alot! when you use screen tape/ meshtape... you need to use powder mix mud ( fast drying, quickset, sheetrock) regular mud will crack
