Training Day 6: Drywall

Using the Deadman

Every Thursday is training days for us, learning something new to add to our skills for building. This week we learned how to drywall and install the pieces. I've always thought drywalling was difficult, but it's so soft it's easy to work with.

We spent a lot of time refixing the drywall in one of the units that had been installed incorrectly, making sure nails had the right spacings and that they were going into something actually solid. It was a great experience. Even though fixing mistakes are never fun, now I know the right way of doing it.
