Very helpful. The processes described were extremely useful when I remodeled my basement. Thanks for all the good information and direction.
Is there no longer a Part Two & Three?

@superfly1001978 yeah its actually not that hard. If its and interior brick wall you can glue the drywall to it. but if its an exterior brick wall, with the other side being exposed to weather, you will have to frame up something to screw the drywall to and keep the drywall off the brick because of moisture purposes.
What about the insulation i hear on mention about that.

Congratulations on a very well done video, with good details and easy to understand language. Thanks.
Thank you, I am a first year apprentice and this was very helpful.
Really one of the best drywall videos on youtube. Wish I would have found it sooner.
What if the side wall is 24 inch not 16 can i still use 1/2 inch drywall or do i need 5/8
Very very informative!! Thanks!!!
Why is it preferred to install upper wall then lower? I thought the lower wall is better installed first so as to be a support for the upper wall?
Is thicker wall always preferred when financially allowed?
WOW!!! Very helpful!!!!!
Different thickness” of drywall comes in several different lenghts. 9′ isn’t an option.
verey good, thanks
easier to use a 21″ piece somewhere rather than a 9″ piece
12 footers is usually the way to go – as you said, ceiling a bit under 8′ and closet 49″ = 12′. no need to buy assorted sizes for one job except for the 54″ if you need them. you’re getting there pal but you still have a lot to learn to be a true drywall pro!
why not order 9footers for that 8ft3in wall?

Damn man that was the most informative and easy to follow video ive seen on youtube. Congrats. Not sure about the ordering of differenct lengths of board though
Hey this guy looks kind of like the medic in team fortress 2
That was well done……screw the haters commenting on here. They are probably the ones taping 16 ft of rock vertical…or horizontal because they would use 4×8 sheets for 9 foot ceilings. Keep it up with the vids. Thx
