- (DRYWALL) How to use a hawk and trowel like a pro. This video demonstrates how efficient a hawk and trowel method is for coating drywall angles. I'd say the hawk is quicker as I see more profeesionals using them as their go to tool to get the job done the best way they know how.
What do you use? hawk and trowel, pan and knife?

Nice work I been plastering over 30 years with hawk and trowel and that's the best I've seen👍
This reminds me of the good ole days, when i used to hang and finish... the only this different is i used pan and knives, but i actually think this is faster.... i also had the bazooka and boxes, its odd that i didnt use hawk and trowel for finishing drywall because i could plaster too....now i just watch videos of the the work at 71 yrs of age....good job guys.
Nothing in the world like getting a full spread with a hawk n trowel countless generations have used those tools something about that is what makes a true plasterer love what he does
I love these videos. I appreciate the videos when other guys walk you through the process, but it is amazing to see a well-oiled machine on the job, at a construction site.
When you get some skill mudding, you think, “Hey, I’m pretty good.” After watching these guys, “Uh, no I’m not.”
I work with drywall in Brazil, and what I have more difficulty is the treatment of joints, I smooth the mass and never look good in a coat, you are really fast and amazing, the finish is perfect! I need to learn more from you!
Keep watching
Interesting how you use your forehand to apply from the bottom. I've always used backhand. Been taping 25 years and I can tell you guys are very good with the tools!
Really need to get a hawk and trowel and spend the time getting used to it. I do just fine with my pan and knives but it seems you can really put a lot of mud on in a hurry and more efficiently with a hawk and trowel. Always wanted to try them out but after watching your video I'm definitely going and getting a set tomorrow. Thanks for the push guys. Just added something for me to be excited about again at work. After 25 years of using a pan and knives I'm making a switch. That's exciting to me. Guess I'm not switching. Just going to run bead, butt joints and flats with it. Wait till I'm better before trying to skim any walls out with it but that's what I'm most excited about using it for. Getting rid of the roller setup for skimming. Anyways again, thanks for the push. I get too excited sometimes. Lol!
Chris Maffett We start the new guys on hawk and knives and slowly to hawk and trowels
Did you try it?
I have been using knife and pan for about a year, and I finally made the switch to hawk and trowel. It was a mess. It is a lot more difficult than these guys make it look. On the rare occasion I get a good run, I do like the “bulldoze” effect of the trowel over the knife. But I lost patience and converted to a knife and hawk. I’ll keep practicing.
could literally watch this all day cause it’s so satisfying
These guys are absolute plastering professional. Genius
I’ve been using the pan & knife method for 15 years now but I’ve always wanted to try out the hawk & trowel method. You guys make it look so easy
It is easy once you master it pan seems like a slow way
Thanks for sharing this video, I hope I become as good as you guys some day, I’ve been doing drywall for 6 months now an these videos help me a lot thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills.
I could watch these guys all day they are amazing. I like hawk better than pan but use knife.
I have painting and taping for 10 years... but this guy are the best
Cleanest stopper iv ever seen not a drop of mud on him . Must be the boss . Great technique using 1 edge of his trowel and only using his knives to load the hawk. Quite impressive 👍👍
Thanks Dovah, check out my new series with the drywall gangsters in my latest videos
Meanwhile here's me COVERED in mud
Finally a guy on YT wit some serious skills.
Check how he hasnt drop.a single plaster on the floor. His wrist is so.flexible...damnnn thats what I call a professionalist
Always good watching you guys work. I spend too much time playing around with the mud, lol.
You and me both!
@@Maxkil what size Trowel is being used here? Amazing work btw
Using good product is the key, good job again 👍
How you run that trowel is your business ! However you my friend are applying that mud with surgical precision ! The best I have seen ! Well done 👍
That's the Drywall Gangsters. Look them up on Instagram. It's the best I've seen too! Top blokes
Thanks man
Dude, you are an incredible artist. Great respect from France !
Supppppppperb
You guys are awesome, you make it look so easy, but your skills are wonderful.
I hope someday, I will be like you guys to work.
Great job 👍👌
I am in the trades. Watching skills like this make me better and better. Excellent job guys. I now have a better way to do corner bead.
Great to hear! thanks for watching! Im sure the editor is getting better watching too!
What’s crazy is I’ve never used hawk on bead but love it on the ceiling. I believe this old dog needs to up his game. They have given me something to learn. Wrist gets very sore these days coating usually use box on bead but Cat man was definitely on his game. Hawk doesn’t keep up with big boy boxes but it’s definitely lighter using hawk and trowel it’s definitely better on ceilings with hardly any end blade spills. If you’re open to learning to be efficient I would say you can always learn something new.
I am a gyprocker for 10 years in Sydney I would say what he done is 100% good job
cool man, Thanks for watching! You do new work like this or commercial... or insurance/renovations?
A lot of "plasterers" could learn a thing ot two from you boys. That bloke trowling up the externals is good tradey.
You can tell he gives a damn about his work.
Much respect
Respect from spain,Valencia, great team
I could watch this all day
Odd way of holding the trowel but very effective. Very good.
Guys the way you work..trully open up my mind..
Im a very old plasterer.
This guy is pretty handy with a hawk and trowel.
But no doubt he is showing off a bit for the camera. lol
Anyway a good finisher could no doubt show off as well by using a traditional blade type tool.
Hayatımda ilk defa bu kadar temiz bir inşaat alanı görüyorum. İşçilik çok iyi görünüyor.
Man, these guys are very fast and neat. I like the way he runs the mud, and feathers out the edges. Leroy Chavez.
Thanks for the upload the video. It helps me alot one day I want to be like them.
Holding it that way, in my own experience at least, feels more stable and consistent. Nowhere near that level but still, it made sense to me seeing you holding it that way.
The guys are great love watching them
Beautiful work 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
i am a plasterer too. your skill level is good.
Pros make it look so easy.
Yeah they do don't they..thanks for tuning in
Guys you are very good in doing drywall
Today I learned that I drywall wrong. You guys make it look effortless.
Knowing the drywallers personally looks really nice ....
Fantastic control boys! Well done!
The two foot lader plastic is nice
incredible !!!! the way he is using the trowel and hawk.
the best one! Greetings from Roumania
Great video. Guys are good at what they do. I havent seen people that smooth and fast with the hawk and trowel. amazing!
Easily my least favourite job to do, this guy makes it look so easy
You guys are very good ,And I definitely like your work.

👌🏽👌🏽 they really know what they are doing, they use different tools but their professional, I do finishing
Thanks Andres - Send me some film of your work ! I will share it here👌
Never seen a man in short shorts do such a great job .
@doc hall if u say so .
A great plaster job requires a good drywall job and a good drywall job requires a good framing job
For sure, it goes on. The poor painter takes too long to get out of there though
Good looking work I just can't give up my pan and knives
I'm a hawk and knife guy myself. I do appreciate the flatness you get with the trowel though. Im going to switch it up for a while see how I go
Wanted: drywall operatives. Must have orange shirt and beard. 😁
This guy is on another level lol
This is fabulous mastery...mud poetry in motion...very inspiring 👏
🙂👍🏻🇨🇦
He is amazing 100% wow but it's better to give us like lesson step by step as we understand well but you show us you are worked well
What you guys do is an art!!!! Great work!!!

Makes it look so easy, it takes a long time and a lot of mud to get that quick
Dude’s fast and skillful
Super nice work. Wow.
I got shoulder ache watching this!
Good job very professional 👍🏼
Fast nice professional job
Much respect! I would love to see the consistency of mud you guys use before you start these videos. Would be nice to know how the mud should look consistency wise for every step of the process you guys make videos on! Definitely my favorite mudding how to channel!
Thanks Ben,
Beautiful work
( Onek Sundor Kaj ).

Вечно можно смотреть на три вещи: на горящий огонь, на текущую воду, и на работающих людей!
Thank you bro. Just bought ox utraflex 14’’. Good job

He holds it totally backwards from anyone in Canada
Very nice plastere.

props to you boys from Melbourne.
excelente trabajo gringo congratulationsss.
Really good Team!
Cheers from Australia
Wow wow clean and fast thats what i like it👍👍👍👍👍#GOODJOB
Looks like we have the A team.
Great work! I do not drywall everyday, so why leave a gap near the ceiling?
Excellent work! And strategic boarding: hardly any butt joints in that whole place
Craig Carter 6m (20 foot) sheets here in Australia

Excelente aplicación.. De los mejores videos para apreciar la técnica
Lot of fckn around in that game mate!!
If I were to guess, the gaps at the ceiling are there because crown molding is going up so you figure why tape the corner joint where the ceiling meets the wall?
yes but that huge gap is a great way for dirt and dust to get in , hell if you take down the crown moulding in 10 years , there'll probably be a dead squirrel behind it ..... Okay I exaggerated , but regardless of crown or not , I'm not understanding why there's such a huge gap where wall meets ceiling .... I wouldn't want that crap huge gap in my house
@@shure46 Yeah I think I agree
@@shure46 pretty standard practice here in Australia. Who takes down plaster cornice after 10 years?!
@@daniel.s8126 who wants attic dust in their crown moulding or plaster cornice ??? who can't cut a piece of sheetrock a little tighter ??? Australians ..... if the bottom caulking joint fails and opens up , attic dust will leak , the HVAC intake negative pressure will suck dust into the room .... microscopic attic insulation fibers .... no way I'd allow that in my house .... I just see a 2" gap , that doesn't have to be there and might cost a grand total of ONE OR TWO HOUR'S worth of time to cut it tighter for that entire house ..... I could even understand a 1/4" gap , but that gap is huge ..... I just see "hurry up get it done who gives a shit" with that huge gap ... That's what it says to me
it isn't caulking, it's cornice cement. it's just the way it is, it's not at all like you say . it works well.
I can watch this all night it’s so relaxing lol! How can I learn to plaster like that!
just keep watching and most of all keep doing it.... thanks for being a subscriber, say hi again
Maxkil can you teach me how to plaster?
Sure I can. Where are you?
Maxkil @brisbane St Lucia add me on Instagram tina2tina
@@mscylon1 st Lucia. Wow so close . You know im in Brisbane?. I'll add you
Привет из Борисова!!! Пацаны дело знают!!!
Респект Вам!
He is so good 👍
I have never used hawk and trowel but man thats some nice clean work
legends! you gone viral
Thanks Maxime !!
amazing , I wanted to do the same but I put more on the floor than on the wall
I presume these guys are paid by the house not the hour. That's why they absolutely smash it!
Yeah by the meters they finish. Thanks Henry
@@Maxkil I just commented on another video as well, some tw!t saying that tools are ruining talent. I disagree and say tools make the craftsman. Thanks for the reply.
I found you from airless paint spraying and subbed. Im just about to buy some kit: Graco contractor PC pro gun, Graco 3/16" - 1/4" whip hose, Graco FFLP and LP tips, attached to a £200 Amazon (china) 1800w airless paint sprayer. I figured the finish is in the tip and gun, not the pump. Promises to be 5 year warranty, brushless motor, stainless steel pump. The whole lot will be £450 instead of £700 for a kit that will have a basic gun and pump with 800w brushed motor. Heres the pump: www.amazon.co.uk/VEVOR-Airless-Electric-Adjustable-Pressure/dp/B08K8N4LQK/ref=sr_1_5?crid=26ONQZ6U3IQUK&dchild=1&keywords=airless+paint+sprayer+1800w&qid=1603636093&sprefix=1800w+airless%2Caps%2C165&sr=8-5 Ill take a punt on it.
I hold the trowel like this guy! Nice work!
5:46 I'm a Union Drywall finisher in Kansas City, that looks extremely good, I don't know why we don't use Hawk and Trowels. Really don't think the best Finisher I know could finish that doorway as fast as him with a pan and knife.
Pan and knife sucks. Hawk and trowel is the future from the past. Lol
Americanwoods why do you say that?
Using a pan in my opinion is not practical at all I’d use a hawk anyday
I could never understand why use a pan instead of a hawk. But there was one reason I heard. That sometimes when the mud consistency after running a taper for example is so wet that it will fall off the trowel too easy.
Maxkil that makes sense actually that’s a good point ...... sometimes on a bad day my nickname is “magpie” cause I drop shit everywhere if put to much on the hawk while taping 😂
My friend you are painting! 😏😏😏 great job! Greetings from Greece!
