Planning to install drywall? These quick tips could help save you time and frustration. First, store your drywall flat to prevent damage to the edges. Then, to make attachment quicker, snap a chalk line on each sheet to indicate the joists or stud centers underneath. Always start attaching from the center and work your way out.
Installing drywall for a ceiling can be tough, especially if you don't have much help. But braces can almost do the work of one person. To make your braces, just measure the exact height from floor to ceiling, and then subtract the width of your drywall. Cut two-by-fours to that length and use them to help hold the drywall in place while you fasten the screws.

Except for Alaska, Minnesota is the most northerly of all the states (reaching lat. 49°23'55"N). The climate is humid continental. Winter locks the land in snow, spring is brief, and summers are hot. Prehistoric glaciers left marshes, boulder-strewn hills, and rich, gray drift soil stretching from the northern pine wilderness to the broad southern prairies. In the eastern part of the state are mountains, part of the Canadian Shield, from which iron ore is decreasingly extracted. The Vermilion and Cuyuna ranges (discovered in 1884 and 1911) are virtually depleted, and the once rich Mesabi range (1890) has also declined. South of the iron country, famous for its old-time boomtowns, lie rolling hills. In the south and the west are prairies, fertile farming country.
