Because no one knows drywall better than the experts from Fine Homebuilding magazine, you’ll get the inside story and trade secrets you might never learn on your own. Ferguson covers all the angles, from mixing compound and taping inside corners to working on ceilings and, of course, sanding, sanding, and sanding.
