This revised version of Drywall gives readers information on new tools and materials and techniques that Myron has field-tested since the last revision in 2008. For the first time the book also includes a bound-in DVD with tips and techniques for hassle-free drywall installation. Drywall, 4th Edition, offers the very latest information with the familiar easy-to-use format that made the first three editions such great successes.

Myron Ferguson has over 25 years experience hanging drywall. In addition do Drywall, and its companion video, he is the author of numerous articles written for trade journals including Fine Homebuilding magazine, Walls and Ceilings, and Tools of the Trade. He participated in the Journal of Light Construction's Live Construction Training Show as their drywall expert.
Everybody hates doing drywall--that's why it's so expensive having it done for you. Staunch (penurious) do-it-yourselfers (and industrious types seeking a new career path) should consult Ferguson's generously illustrated, cheerfully detailed guide. It discloses the secrets of hanging drywall evenly without throwing your back out and the arcane rules of good taping and joint-compound techniques. It airs the strategy of "prebowing" drywall panels, concerns about the "grain orientation" of drywall sheets, and the perhaps more obvious issues of fastening with screws rather than with nails and vice versa. One grows to admire the depth of Ferguson's gypsum-board mastery, for the matters cited seem trifling only to those who have never personally attacked a drywall project. Those who have, or will, will appreciate the clear directions and insightful tips. From choice of trowel to methods of properly mixing powdered joint compounds, Ferguson has it covered. Happy hanging. Mike Tribby
