Yes I was impressed. It's not a proper pint if they don't. I was in a bar and a guy got a Guinness without a shamrock. Conversation goes on between them. The guy went behind the bar and taught the bartender how to do it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I had one vacation day to take before the end of the month or I'd lose it. Thought I would start on my ceiling in the garage. Every piece I put up will have to be ripped as the joists are not on 16" centers. More like 19". All I can say is that it's a ***** to do by yourself. This is going to take me a while. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like 19-3/16" OC, you eliminate 1 stud every 8'. Used more in decks, gazebos, garages. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babadono Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 What a pain. Even if the correct spacing/size. Do you have a drywall jack or what? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not fun at all, kind of crazy the material gets wasted somewhere down the line, unless it's not going to be covered like for a deck as Ceptorman said. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of a 12' sheet of osb.............I even hate the long sheets of drywall well even the short sheets suck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
