OMG you guys - I forgot how fun this is!

[Exterous]

While I'm better at mudding drywall than I was this is taking a while. And I still have lots of corners to do. Stupid necessary bulkheads

When you are finished, I have some work (I mean fun) for you to do.

 

[nakedfrog]

Not sure if sarcasm.

 

[feralkid]

Bulkheads?

 

[Captante]

Drywalling = fun ??

Bulkheads?

He's drywalling a room inside a submarine.

Hey, he probably enjoys watching paint dry too.

If there were only a system wherein you could trade your labor for that of a drywaller.

I thought for sure this was a penis rediscovery thread.

Isn't it, though?

Oh man - I am way too nice of a guy (Just ask Zin) to take all that fun from other people

Bulkheads?

I did try that. They wanted a crazy amount of money for how fun this is. $1200 to have fun. Crazy!

That's a soffit; I don't know how those guys ended up calling it a bulkhead, but it's a soffit.

Soffit.

What kind of flooring is it?

Not sure if this is sarcasm. Try it with a beer in hand.

The thing about pros is... there's usually more than 1 of them.

Like a barter system??? I dunno what a drywaller would want with a male escort tho

Its also a bulkhead, furdown or chase. I worked in architecture and construction for a while and all are used although regional differences may come into play

Right now its concrete but im thinking ill go Tyroc subfloor for its thin profile and water resistance and then carpet and pad

[paperfist]

You're doing that all by hand?

Looking good.

Give tips please

 

[BoomerD]

You missed a spot...

That's not anything I'd call "fun," but it does give you a nice feeling when it's done...and it's done right.

I need to drywall my basement soon. Debating on if I want to hire it out or not. I could drywall it myself and then hire out the plastering or just hire it all. It's not so much that it's hard, it's just tedious. But there is a great sense of accomplishment when you do it yourself!

Also never heard of a bulkhead being called a soffit before. A soffit is the lower portion of the overhang on a house. Usually it's perforated to let air into the attic.

Me to, loads and loads of fun.
