The trick most contractors don't know

Putting a raw drywall edge against an exterior stone wall... What could go wrong there🙄

lol, If your contractor hasn't figured out how to scribe yet, you're screwed.

Great idea, but putting drywall against stone? Won't that create condensation?

Great; except that stone is much nicer that the drywall

Very clever, but "moisture" is an issue.

Looks good as far as fit, the gap at the top is too wide for specs, the bottom is resting on the floor where there should be a 5/8" gap, and the cut edge against the masonry may need some kind of moisture sealant, normally we use a "J" bead, but it wouldn't work here.

So, Spirograph the shit out of it, got it :)

Contracts dont know how to use a scribe? Wow, wait until they see a plumb bob.

All that and you don’t own a “RotoZip”?

Most contractors know how to scribe

Sad to spoil this nonsense but you have to use the filler anyway cause there are clearly gaps.

You need to use a smaller wheel to get a more accurate shape.

Vas-y, prends les gens pour des cons 🤦‍♂️

I saw this technique used many times on This Old House.

must be a remodel

Should have pushed it to the ceiling before scribing.

If you say so…

What do I do if I don't have a garage?

That’s good fitting and looks cool. Now show how you tape that edge to keep the heat/cold from entering the living space.

Great idea. Now show me how he fills the gap at the top that he forgot about

Czy na drugiej ścianie też będą płyty gipsowe? Jak będą to głupiego robota to wycinanie, tamta płyta zasłoni i tak w narożnik trzeba będzie dać siatkę i gips.

No insulation?

Brilliant! I wish I knew this a couple months ago.

Funny with the kitten there who does not react to the loud saw but keeps total calm.

All contractors know how to scribe.🙄

oldskool

Actually, most contractors know this.

Utter nonsense, stone is porous, a raw drywall edge will draw water. Anyone doing this is not a tradesman….

Does nobody notice the giant rat sitting on the windowsill?

👍🏻

You know what separates amateurs from craftsman? A fucking router. Nobody uses a drywall handsaw anymore. Wtf

Did he not think to lift the board first so there’s no gap at the top? That will draw moisture in aswell touching the wall

That’s actually a really handy tip for fitting plasterboard👌I usually use a scribe tool like this (affiliate link) as it’s more accurate and easier, but if you don’t have one, the method in the video works well too. A scribe is great for getting tricky cut-outs on pretty much any surface
