If you want to take on the task of drywalling, then you will need the right tools for the occasion. Drywall tools are essential for getting that sturdy, smooth wall you need to create. If you have never hung drywall before, your local hardware superstore no doubt has classes you can take to let you in on the secrets of the pros. But even their classes can't save you if you don't have the right tools for drywalling.
Drywall Tools: The Basics
To get your drywalling started, these are the pieces of drywall equipment you'll need:
- Two kinds of trowels - a plastic one and a corner one.
- Some kind of sanding material, be it a sanding machine or sandpaper - a sanding machine is much easier for most of the walls, but you will need some sandpaper, and a sanding pole to get the top of the wall.
- a drill - a cordless drill is the easiest tool for drywalling.
- a utility knife
- a large T-square for measuring and cutting your drywall.
- a steel or plastic corner tool
- two knifes, one four inches and one ten inches. These are for tape and for those finishing they drywall
- a container for mixing your drywall solutions. If you want to avoid rust, go stainless steel.
- assorted cloths, tape, and brushes.
Working with Drywall Tools
Drywall is too important a job to take on without any experience whatsoever. Although you can find information on the internet about how to drywall, sitting through a class on the subject is really the best way to go for a novice.
After you're sure you know how to get the job done, make your plans and buy the right amount of materials (plus a little extra for those little mistakes). When you get started, move from top to bottom, making sure you are leaving as little space between the boards as possible. If you make a mistake, you can fix it later by sanding, but doing it right the first time is worth the hassle.
When the drywall is up on the walls, you will need to begin the process of smoothing. This process takes three days, minimum, even if you have done an impeccable job with the drywall. You'll need to apply at least two smoothing coats and a finishing coat. Make sure everything is sanded to perfection before you slap on that finishing coat, because there is no going back after that.
Greg Hansward's summaries can be found on a lot of web publications tied to information on drywall finishing tools and drywalling and mudding tools. You might come across his contributions on drywall taping tools at various other sources for drywall taping tools tips.

Acupressure Taping (Paperback) $23.71 Combines acupressure and massage to treat pain using elastic tape • Shows how the use of an elastic, adhesive tape works with the body’s own motions to combine the actions of acupressure and massage • Presents both therapeutic and preventative techniques for acute and chronic pain • Contains step-by-step instructions illustrated in full color detailing how to self-treat pain in all parts of the body Sufferers of chronic pain well know the frustration of treatments involving endless rounds of drugs or expensive physical therapy--that may or may not offer relief. In Acupressure Taping, authors Hecker and Liebchen present a comprehensive guide to a new method of pain treatment--acutaping--which offers a much simpler and more effective alternative. In acutaping, elastic tape is placed over the afflicted area in accordance with related acupuncture points. During the course of normal movement throughout the day, the elastic tape provides a gentle but consistent massage to the inflamed area. Because the skin adheres to the tape, it is shifted against the subtissue during motion, causing lymph tissue to drain and connective tissue to be massaged. The authors show that most bodily dysfunctions can be self-treated through this innovative method. Combining elements of Chinese medicine with osteopathy, acutaping produces a method of treatment for ailments ranging from back pain and tennis elbow to menstrual pain and migraines. Acutaping is an easy and effective treatment--without side effects--that offers welcome relief to sufferers of chronic pain. |
