yup, these are rare on any carpenter union jobs. So many companies I worked for refused to use these. They rather just be tough guys thinking it makes them look cool I guess.
This was so helpful. I’m doing a 10x12 shop and the drywall estimate was $1100. I can do it with the lift for around $250!! Sweet! Can’t wait to try it tomorrow.
@@wthomas5697 I would probably be fine with new construction if I had the bazooka and other handy tools. I gripe is trying to correct bad drywall finish from the original builder.
Very straight forward instructions, perfect for a beginner. The host has a wonderful attitude for teaching, informative without being condescending. Thank you I learned a lot .
Great video. When I was a kid, we built a house. None of this stuff even existed -- except sheetrock. No hoists. No screws. No electric screwdrivers. We've made great progress in the intervening years. Now I am repairing a ceiling and trying to figure out the best way to use the hoist. I'm grateful for this video. (Needless to say, there was no RUclips in those days either.)
Hi! Great video! We own Telpro Inc., and we manufacturer the Panellift brand drywall lift. Thank you so much for featuring our product. We strive to make the best products in the industry and have since 1973.
Later in life I discovered the drywall lift. I have helped my dad with what seems like 1000 drywall projects and he always made me hold it up with brute force!
Renting one of those today. Thanks for showing me how to use one. I noticed you done use any adhesive for the ceiling. I was told by a few drywall veterans to use adhesive. And screws, of course.
Thank you you are awesome! Just purchased a panel lift and very anxious to try it out on a small job. Appreciate how easy you make it look. I was told , these lifts don't call in sick, have an appointment,etc; when you need a hand hanging drywall.,thanks
I had to unload a truck with 226 sheets of drywall, 8,10, and 12 footers. My right arm is now 2” longer than my left. Home Depot would have delivered for a dollar a sheet but no........the company I worked for wasn’t going to pay that. Instead they sent me and a helper to go to Home Depot pickup drywall and the mud and tape, drive to the house and unload it. Took us all day with driving, unloading and driving back.@ $50.00 an hour for both of us. $450.00 BBD (Brilliant business decision).
Jeff great video I bought a lift at HF I used it to help when changing the duct work to a low profile design to gain head room and now I am going to hang 40 sheets of 5/8 so yea for a one man show it is necessity not a option.
if you start with the sheet on the floor, then just lean the top onto the hook, then pick up the bottom of the sheet allowing it to pivot in the arms, you never have to pick up the whole sheet. I just did it on my project. I really didn’t want to pick up a 75 pound sheet. The hooks are at the right height to do this, just position it correctly and lock the wheels.
I'm getting ready to hang 2,300 square feet of ceiling board by myself. Help is hard to find and expensive. Your tip on how to get the boards on the lift with only one person brought it all together for me. Thank you.
Very helpful video but (always hand the ceiling FIRST) then when you push the wall board up tight to it, it provides better support for the ceiling edges.
I looked at a lift today identical to this one. $30 a day. Ceiling caved in due to a leaky roof. I've only got two 4 x 8 sheets to put up. I can't afford to hire anyone to do this, so I'm going to try it myself. Thanks for the video.
Same here we have a outdoor patio screened in with old regular drywall which some caved in so I took the whole thing down,it is a flat roof.Once the roof is done I will use that machine,I will need about 8 sheets,but I will buy greenboard and put that up.I have one coming from Walmart about 159.00 instead of renting,I could always sell it when I am done.
Thanks for the video. I just rented one and because the store close saturday and sunday i get to use it for 3 days but was charged for one. The cost was 50 bucks including tax in sc. worth it.
You have talent to work great and explain everything how it should be I think if I was a beginner I would understand perfectly great videos you have I been drywalling and tape floating for 14 years and all your tips are great
Thanks, Great video. Looks simple, fast, and easy. I know that I won't go as fast as you did in the video, but the video provides the example that it can be done fairly easy.
Yep... great machine .... I bought one of these rigs last year as I'm lowering the ceiling heights (all nu joists etc.) to a std. 8' high.. its an old stone cottage here on the west coast of Ireland & working alone is a bitch at times... Cost me €160... Once the drywalls done , I needed to... Re-wire... Re-plumb... Install "wet" central heating... Re-slated roof... Yada Yada Yada ... There ain't nothing like learning on the job ... & a builder friend oversees my DIY efforts... 😎😎😎😎 BTW I also used the rig to raise 2 steel box beams... just 80mm square × 3mm thick on a 12'span so not overly heavy.. the lift worked like a charm 🙄🙄 Lovin the vids man !! ☘☘☘☘
Renovating a brick cottage in Bendigo Australia. Pulled up floor and newspapers were from 1919. I'm learning on the job too. I hope your renovation went great..
Does this work well when doing drywall on a vaulted ceiling? I'm assuming that I would keep it slanted and my drywall would go up sideways, parallel to the double top plates? Thanks in advance for answering my question!
I wished my sister and i had known about this drywalling tool, well...i helped her, a great deal for me! Thank you sir, is always something new to learn, God bless you.
Thank you so much for all the information. I found your video extremely helpful and informative. You were also pleasant and straight to point. Excellent job!
Awesome Video, For the ceiling should we stagger the panels so no continues gaps across the ceiling. I have a 17' wide ceiling so two 8' sheets and a 1' sheet. Again thanks for the great Videos
That tool really comes in handy for one person installing sheet rock panels in the ceiling, and I will remember that if I have to install them at home again. Because I am not a professional at this I looked at how I could do this myself when I had one room which needed new panels put up. In the end I ended up hiring a professional to install the panels and do the rest of the work needed to straighten up the damaged area.
I appreciate your videos and your concise explanations. Many folks seem to want to display their acting skills and talk you to death. You do a great job !
I wouldn't give up my lid jack for anything! I paid about 70 bucks for it on E-bay and it makes ceilings a one man job. I have a whole house to renovate and it will take years. The best 70 bucks I ever spent.
I don't try to lift a whole sheet of 5/8 fireguard drywall onto the lift at a time. 30 years ago, maybe, but I'm not that crazy or that young any more. You can pick up one end and set it on the hook, then pick up the other end. That way you are never lifting more than half of a sheet at a time. It blunts the corners a bit but the mud covers it. Those sheets weigh 87 pounds apiece and you only get one back. pull something and they really can't fix it.
A bit of a late reply here, but having gaps around the ceiling is more forgiving, as if you put the walls up after, it's easier to push the wall board up to touch the ceiling for a nice tight corner. Also the unsupported drywall between joists at the end will be sitting on the wall drywall all along so it has better support at the edge.
My celieng has no decking because it's an old storey building. Can I use a dry wall instead of pvc? Will it keep it looking straight cos the pvc seems to be caving in in some areas due to uneven installation of the roof members
I am now learning and I like to look at all your videos. They are so addicting like Disney cartoons for a child on a cold Saturday morning here - 14 degrees outside. Love your work and expertise. Think you better than " This old House." Shush!! I once told that to them as well.. Thanks Bud! Always
I've used one of these before ! my uncle had to rent it tho cause we did a basement suite. would love to do that again but I have to upgrade my training as I was just a labourer helping him out & learning at the same time.
If your doing a ceiling what is the maximum spacing between strapping, right now I'm looking at 27 to 30 inches between strapping, to me this is too far. Should it be 16 inches like walls? 1/2 extra lite drywall.
I have a 24’x24’ garage that has ceiling joists 48” OC and I want to insulate and drywall the ceiling. Do I need to install joists to give me 16” OC? If so, where am I going to find joists 24’ long?
Jeff I noticed you use a lot of strapping. What size do you use and why do you use it? I have some uneven ceiling joists, would that be good reason to use strapping?
If installing drywall over popcorn ceilings, how do you take into consideration recess lights, ceiling fans and ac vents? You did a small demo on application of generous amounts of mud and the use of screws to eliminate asbestos removal, but did not mention anything about those things. How would recess lights will look flush on the ceiling? Thank you Cesar Plaza Pomona, Ca
Thank you! You probably just saved me an injury. It can be so frustrating when you are just getting into this for the first time and don't even know these helpful tools exist.
Awesome I found this by accident on eBay looking for a carry handle lol showed me new builder boss this and he said buy it il give u money tomorrow;) happy days

My granddad invented that! Rol Young. genius manufacturer. Thanks for showcasing it! Actually made me tear up a bit.
And like you said, pretty basic concept, but he was the first guy to make it, and to make it so functional and perfectly as needed.
Your grandfather just helped me start a one man crew. Salute to you and your grandad.
My grandfather invented the Cobb salad
Did he really? When? I feel like these been around awhile
@@mikesnyder3317 back in the 80s I believe. Telpro Inc. In North Dakota was the original manufacturer.
I'm in the carpenters union. My foreman used to run his own gig when he did residential. He had one of these and gave it to me. So glad I have it

Hi how is your back now
I recently bought a plaster lift for $400 AUD and it's awesome. Makes it so easy...
Sooo Cool!! Thank you so much! I'm a 72 yr old women. I think I can do that! I have to make a repair...nice. Best to you!
Been watching your videos for years and just love the simplicity with which you approach every task. Good job!

You are the MOST helpful person on the internet. I was given a house that hasn’t been redone since the 80s and you’ve helped me do so much
I love how fast and efficient everything is done. I strive for the same level of movement efficiency in my work. It's an eternal goal.
Same here,lol

Ok lol I've been working on drywall 10 years for park square homes here in Florida really helpful videos for beginners keep up the good work .
Thanks Carlos, Just trying to give homeowners a little help so they can manage on their own if that is how they want to get it done.

Great tool for largest ceilings and when you work all by your self :)
Yep... great machine ....
I bought one of these rigs last year as I'm lowering the ceiling heights (all nu joists etc.) to a std. 8' high.. its an old stone cottage here on the west coast of Ireland & working alone is a bitch at times...

Once the drywalls done , I needed to...
Re-wire...
Re-plumb...
Install "wet" central heating...
Re-slated roof...
Yada Yada Yada ...
There ain't nothing like learning on the job ... & a builder friend oversees my DIY efforts...

BTW I also used the rig to raise 2 steel box beams... just 80mm square × 3mm thick on a 12'span so not overly heavy.. the lift worked like a charm 🙄🙄

i love this guy. it helps me a lot with diy work.
Vanessa and I are loving it!! What a cool device!!
Glad you like it Ladies.
I should have watched this before I messed shit up.... Thanks for the incredible video.
Very good video. I'm trying to save money and the panel lift will help me. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the demo.
You just eye ball the depth of screw? Nice job. Thank you
Your videos are always super helpful thanks!
Man u kill in this video!! Your way teach wad just perfect thank you
Hello Sir. I noticed that you hung the drywall without gluing the drywall. Can I do that on my project, or do I need to glue as many videos recommend?
I appreciate your videos and your concise explanations. Many folks seem to want to display their acting skills and talk you to death. You do a great job !
Perfect simple no nonsense explanation, love your work 👌👌
You can sheet ceilings on your own. I did plenty. Then I got one of these, they're not expensive, it's a no brainer.
I wouldn't give up my lid jack for anything! I paid about 70 bucks for it on E-bay and it makes ceilings a one man job. I have a whole house to renovate and it will take years. The best 70 bucks I ever spent.

lol, I love every breath!
Thanks mate. you make it look simple enough for me to do!!!
Very good video shot and precious Thank you
Do you have to disassamble the dry wall lift to move it from room to room?
Great tips. I got a lift. Impressed with such a clear description without a single Eh from someone from Ottawa.
Very good video, people are like, praise for you!
Funny how sometimes the simple things are what people don't know about.
Great information/video! Thanks for sharing.
Should my garage failing have cross beams? What you were drilling the drywall into I do not have in my ceiling.
It is a nice time and effort saving idea
Very useful information Thanks from Australia.
I just love to watch your videos. That panel lift seems of great help!
awesome video thanks. appreciated you addressing common and uncommon issues.
People have always told me I had to put my ceiling on first. What's the big deal about that when you clearly installed your walls first?
Zt Weve I always see ceilings done first
Try it and you'll find out. Way harder and wrong this way
A bit of a late reply here, but having gaps around the ceiling is more forgiving, as if you put the walls up after, it's easier to push the wall board up to touch the ceiling for a nice tight corner. Also the unsupported drywall between joists at the end will be sitting on the wall drywall all along so it has better support at the edge.

Question. Does it matter if you do the walls first then the ceiling? Or vise versa? Thanks!
NIce video!! Very clear.
Great idea. Good video! Thumbs up.
Do we need to use 4x2 lumber to hold the dry wall at the top? Or can we use any other small ones( like 2X1s)
Do they make this style of lift to do a 12 foot high ceiling?
I buy one those machine help a lot when you working by yourself works😁😁😁
I have a 24’x24’ garage that has ceiling joists 48” OC and I want to insulate and drywall the ceiling. Do I need to install joists to give me 16” OC? If so, where am I going to find joists 24’ long?
The drywall panel lift is the good idea of hanging sheetrock by yourself hands down
definitely! cheers!
Thanks for the video. I never thought this Wall thing exist.
Very helpful and great idea!
Good job 😎👍
Jeff I noticed you use a lot of strapping. What size do you use and why do you use it? I have some uneven ceiling joists, would that be good reason to use strapping?

You did a small demo on application of generous amounts of mud and the use of screws to eliminate asbestos removal, but did not mention anything about those things. How would recess lights will look flush on the ceiling? Thank you
