Bremon Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Yes that is good advice and I didn't even think of offering it. Good call Hugh. When you watch enough reviews on high torque drills you see enough materials being mixed that you just learn through osmosis lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olletsocmit Posted September 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Since the job is being done by myself i'm even having issues with a 90 minute since it's like 100 here if I notice a issue area, I got to tape and get down and fix by the time I do that it's starting to dry again! I'm thinking of finishing the rest the premixWhat one should I go with? I already have a bunch of the all-purpose green at home but what about this +3 stuff? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olletsocmit Posted September 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 In regards to the above post I think I'm just going to use The green ones I have at home since I don't have money for a 5 gallon regardless right now..I posted this on another thread but thought I'd share here since it's related to the drywall... here's a picture of my Milwaukee jigsaw that was one of many tools sitting on the other side of the garage while I've been hanging drywall. It's hard to tell from the pictures but the fins inside this thing are covered in white dust! Should I pull apart any other tools that are this dirty inside and properly clean them out or just blowout with air or use the shop vac to clean? -- also a sidenote the little rectangular clear piece of plastic with a circle for the blade broke off the bottom in this last picture. I used it to kind of guide me for my lines where can I get another?https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?url=http://www.professional-power-tool-guide.com/power-tool-forum/index.php?/topic/10805-How-do-you-treat-your-tools%3F/page__view__findpost__p__147539&share_tid=10805&share_fid=3816&share_type=t&share_pid=147539I am less worried about the brushless tools but this jigsaw is not brushless or does it really not matter...

olletsocmit Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I just dropped a 5 gal bucket of drywall primer on my foot that I got your back and never used. going to use it for the garage walls. I think it's going to be bad tomorrow ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Ouch, let's not do that again!!! Not sure what plus 3 is but if it's the like the usual blue bucket stuff, it's lighter weight than general purpose, and probably more expensive. I would just go with whatever is cheapest at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does what really not matter? I guess I don't even think about the dust aspect, maybe i should. I'll shake off my saw and tap the shavings out of the sawzall or OMT but that's about it. Probably just blow it off with air pressure 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Bit of air and you're good to go. You wouldn't believe some of the tools you see on commercial sites. They look like they were picked out of a dumpster but they keep going. Manufacturers test this stuff pretty thoroughly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 In regards to cutting drywall boxes I heard oscillating multitools do a good job. Could be an alternate option to a drywall cutting tool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olletsocmit Posted October 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Hey guys sorry I haven't been following up with this thread I've made a ton of progress and taking a lot of pictures. I'll be posting all of them tonight, my current state is all the walls sheet rocked except above and around the garage doors (this is something I'm going to have to figure out I really don't want to take the doors down and pull the rails but we'll see). Also the ceiling needs work it's the original 15 year old drywall wall. Some boards are pillowing (sagging in the middle, about 1/2" down). I'm not sure if this can be fixed somehow or I need to replace them. I'm worried if I push on them and set screws it'll rip right through...? I really need help and suggestions with the ceiling. Also the two new walls and the two old have all have been covered in 1 coat of Behr drywall primer, should I do a second coat of primer or should I just paint now. This is the primer I used it was cheap and I had a can laying around. If I need a second coat of primer should I use a different one or the same. and I'm planning on painting the walls in eggshell in an off-white color.

olletsocmit Posted October 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Also regards to the questions above I've noticed some small issues after I applied the first coat of primer is it OK to do some small patch work with bagged setting-type compound or should I just use regular spackle. Like dry-dex or green lid joint compound Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
