      I don't think they use dry wall on top of bricks in the US. Most of their houses are wood frames with drywall to cover them on the inside walls and insulation and something to protect the house from the weather on the outer walls

    if you guys ever use any type of knife with a straight edge guide to cut along. Understand that that blade will easily jump up onto that straight edge and head straight for the hand that is holding the straight edge down. Make sure the hand that is applying pressure to the straight edge is above the direction the blade is heading so you do not have a chance of slicing your fingers open. This type of accident happens within a second and with the amount of force you are putting into the blade, you will hurt yourself badly.

      @meganepelletier853 4 года назад +1

      @PDW 177 Slum lord is a depreciatory term used to define a landlord who is trying to maximize profit by minimizing renovation costs, often resulting in poor property maintenance - the property in turn becomes a slum.
      The average individual who rents out a property is generally referred to as a land lord here as well.
