[QUOTE="Lambeau, post: 15467569, member: 105189"] +1 CobraBob. - Consult local Building Inspector. - If you have some new construction going on around your place, go look inside if you can. - Check local building codes. Most likely 1/2" on walls, 5/8" ceiling. - How you fasten the rock to the wall can make the tapers job easy, or a hard (expensive). - If you decide to hang it, talk to Taper prior to installation. They may have preferences that make their job easier (less expensive). - Hang ceiling, then walls. - I've done some taping in the past, but I'm very inefficient with a hawk/trowel and a banjo, but I'm a putz. - BTW - Sanding sucks! - The better job you do hanging, the easier/better job you do taping, the easier/better it is to sand, the easier/better job painting, the better it looks! [U]I really like Family Handyman website and magazine:[/U] [url]http://www.familyhandyman.com/drywall/installation/how-to-hang-drywall-like-a-pro/view-all[/url] Good luck! [/QUOTE]
