They took my order but didn't inform me that the drill I wanted to purchase was not in stock, and of course they didn't give me an estimated ship day. So I've been waiting... I assumed (yes, I know what that spells) that since they were so bit, they would have stock and just ship the drill. Not... |

Screw it up at 18" oc, ew (on center, each way) The screws hold it for the glue to dry. tape and spray. It is quick, it is cheap. It is NOT as good as replacing the old drywall with new 5/8" drywall.

If you cut the end the cut is untreated. If you set a post in concrete and leave the bottom of the post in contact with earth, it will not last as long as if you put come concrete in first to cap the bottom of the hole. Traditionally creosote is used but probably any wood treatment meant to prevent rot and or water pen... |

Even if they make it, you would be better off using ½" drywall because it won't sag like the 1/4" will. You will have a mess trying to use 1/4" drywall on the ceiling. -- JerryD(upstateNY) You might want to try a plaster contractor to do a skim coat over the whole room.
