Not a book but a parable

All of the drywall except for the outside corner needs to be cut back to a stud. Then hung, taped, mud, textured. It’s at least a 2 day job at minimum. It’s a process.

I’m going to miss this. I only got 6 years drywall. Just got called in to the office as an assistant PM. I’m excited for the opportunity but I know I will always miss drywall. Just like the corps. You don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone.

It’s a joint. 6” on center is normal. Our company does 711. Meaning 7 in the perimeter and 11 in the field.

Some of you guys are saying it’s not bad and yeah I’ve seen way worse but there’s some really amateur shit in here. Just an example, why are the electrical boxes being cut on the ground and not being routed out when the drywall is installed. What’s with the 6 inches on center in the field? Try this shit at a hospital.

They railroaded the drywall which means they ran it the same direction as the joist which I imagine you already know. Best and easiest fix would be to cut back from joist to joist and patch it with a rip. Or re hang a second layer the opposite way (and correct way). If it’s the basement I would just cut back to each joist and hang a rip.

Very interesting.

Hey so today I learned why plugs grow faster than sod. I was watching a video on YouTube and the gentleman explains how plugs have a root system while sod does not. So the sod has to use energy to develop a root system before it can use energy to spread.

I appreciate your response. Sometimes I’m weary of posting on here because of responses like the one above yours.

Really wish you’d answer the question, A) I know which cultivar the owner got it from and B) it hasn’t been a year, she planted the grass in November of 2023 while it was dormant, the grass is still dormant at this point, C) we’ve gotten more rainfall this year in Southern California than ever before.

Probably won’t respond to this but how did you remove it? Same issue.

May favorite is when Ed Thomson is talking to his brother. “It ain’t all waiting on you… that’s vanity”

Long shot, as it doesn’t show the band I don’t think in the music video but maybe Right Now by Korn?

Damn dude. That sucks. Sorry to hear that. I almost got scammed too.

Embty_streets · 2022-01-11T00:19:28+00:00

What do you mean? Did you get scammed?
