Watching these guys motivate me to perfect my Drywall jobs. Job well done with precision.

Sometimes you pay for a man's expertise, sometimes for his tools. You get both with this crew. Top dollar for top work is where it's at.

Fast work chaps god nows where you get sheets that length but most amazingly you must have the only makita screw guns that don't constantly jam up my 2 drive me mantal keep it up chaps.

If you're watching this video and plan to install drywall yourself, multiply 30 minutes by every minute these goes are working. You might think that's just a crazy amount of time but once you start lifting drywall above your head you'll learn this shit is hard work.

Why are you leaving gap at top and seeing board on floor. We always went tight to ceiling and left gap at floor

I'm still on the fence for cordless guns. I feel to often when I'm finishing I'm turning those in 1/8-1/4 turn before the sheet is actually tight and doesn't move when pushed on. I love gluing because less screws and in the case a screw does break paper the sheet still doesn't move so it's not coming back as a pop later.
