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.

New Jersey is surrounded by water except along the 50 mi (80 km) of northern border with New York state. The northern third of the state lies within the Appalachian Highland region, where ridges running northeast and southwest shelter valleys containing pleasant streams and glacial lakes. Beyond the crest of wooded slopes are long-established farms given over to dairying and field crops. The Kittatinny Mts., with the state's highest elevations (up to 1,803 ft/550 m), stretch across the northwest corner of New Jersey from the New York border to the Delaware Water Gap. In 1961 New Jersey, along with three other states and the federal government, signed the Delaware River Basin Compact, providing for the control of water resources and rights throughout the Delaware River basin.
