I ordered some drywall last monday, and was going to pick it up Saturday until my roommate went to Michigan city all day.

chill... I just updated my termite thread, & made a post about how i fixed my roof...

Anybody have some good inside corner drywall tips? I've already started, and the best way I have found actually is using my finger for the first fill, then use an inside corner tool to smooth it... I tried the 2nd coat using a straight blade, and it just sucks... Should I just get it decent and just do alot of sanding? What are some tricks for sanding inside corners?

i screwed up my inside corner on my wall replacement too. but, i also re-used the old tape on that corner (i pull off the old piece carefully and left the old tape 1/2 on so i wouldn't have to re-tape the whole corner) and i left the trim piece (as i would have had to taken off the trim, the top peice, the door plate, the top piece, and so on to get in there. big mess for nothing, so i just hacked it. i'm out of here anyway
