BoardMate - Drywall Fitting Tool, Supports The Board In Place While Installing

These little holders worked so good 👍 I actually only need to use one to hold up the sheet to get the first couple screws in place.Highly recommend for sure made the project way easier 👌

These beautiful, simple pieces of plastic are a lifesaver. This is one of the 2 most valuable tools to have when hanging drywall, especially for high, angled ceilings. The other being a heavy-duty, chain-driven board lift with the optional (but is actually not an option to not have, IMO) board-lifting attachment for loading the board onto the rack. I'm currently working on a house with 2 14'+ angled ceiling rooms with exposed wooden beams about 3-4 ft from the peak and about 6-8 ft apart. Not a lot of room for more than one person to work and I got stuck hanging both except for the first row on the bottoms which we usually do with at least 2 people just to make sure that the boards went on straight using a board lift (can be a nightmare depending on the angle of the ceiling, lift or no lift). I bought 2 sets of these (my brother/boss also bought a set) several years ago and almost forgot I had them. We couldn't easily use the lift as most of the board had be to cut into smaller than usual pieces and would have been more trouble than was necessary especially at the peak where we would have had to use the mast extension and STLL not be tall enough, they made the work so much easier because they remove the need for requiring a 2nd set of hands as long as the boards are not cut too big for more than one person to handle. I only have 2 issues with them:1. If you screw them on too tight they can cause you to have a small gap in the seam which could cause problems later when finishing. I found that if you screw them on just enough so that they don't spin around freely while you're trying to get a board in place, they won't cause you to have any gaps.2. It wouldn't hurt if they were made just a little thicker because sometimes they look like they're about to break when trying to support 12'x4'x1/2" or, even worse, the weight of 12'x4'x5/8" board. Yeah, it wouldn't be difficult to make some yourself since all it takes is a couple small blocks of wood, but it takes longer screws to put wood blocks up and wood can break after excessive use and longer screws suck. It would be nice if they could be made out of metal, but they would cost more. I think it would be worth it. The plastic ones paid for themselves the first time we used them and we saved a ton of energy which we would have expended faster by fighting with hanging ceiling board by hand (without the lift).P. S.Cable-driven board lifts SUCK. 😁

Davvero utili per fare controsoffitti in cartongesso quando non c'è la possibilità di poter usarel alzalastre

I recently bought it again after having used couple of years back. If you are alone and thinking of putting/replacing the plaster boards in ceiling, these will help a lot. It works exactly like your mate, screw them to existing board or batton and it will hold the next board in one side to allow you putting screw to other side.

fait tres bien son job
