Clearing up some potential confusion...

Dave purchased an assortment of drywall in varying shapes & sizes in order to minimize the number of seams on the walls and ceilings.

Wondering why he bought two 16-foot sheets of drywall and then promptly cut them in half? The 16-footers that he bought are 54” wide instead of the regular 48”, to be used on one tall wall in the new construction area.

Most of the drywall is 1/2-inch “Lite” drywall. These are easy to carry, even for little ol’ me. Dave also purchased four 14-footers that are 5/8” thick to be used on the ceiling in the new room. Dave and Chris weighed one of these sheets, after it was cut down to 12’ 6”, it was 110 pounds...Chris thought it out-weighed me. Thanks, Amigo, but I’ve got that beat.
