    I believe this is very old instruction manual for installing Casoline MF ceiling. As I have noticed first MF7 main bar was even more than 1200 from the wall. Especially when you are trying to fix 2 skins on the ceiling… if MF ceiling starting to fall, it falls as a full ceiling and videos which I seen are very dangerous… could lead to a death ☠️ Regarding boards direction - must be cross fix to MF5, and not along the top hats (MF5) I can see that video done a while ago and as you aware drywall specs and details evaluate every year, a lot of specs which were using years ago - not accepted any more due to different reasons. 👌

      Because going from 6mm to 6cm is a change of denomination and could be misread, whereas 6mm to 600mm means no room for confusion.

    Not the worst I've ever seen. But.... 1. 600mm is too far between fixings on your mf6a 2. Fix your mf7 to the wall or to the trim. 3. You need to properly level your mf7. Using your hangers as a guide will almost never work. 4. If this is in your home, I'd recommend using the tek screws rather than mf9 clips to secure the mf5 to the mf7. It's nothing structural, just that the clips can creak if theres slight movement or air conditioning in the house. 5. Always use 2 screws when fixing mf7 to hangers. 6. Always stagger your joints on mf7 & mf5. Never have them all in a line. 7. Boards always run across the mf5, never with it. 8. Never start with a cut board. Put a full sheet up, away from the wall, at a perfect 90° to the mf7.

    Shouldn't you fix the studs with the plasterboard so the plasterboard holds it all in place?

    • @steves1460
      @steves1460 Před 4 lety

      P James Was thinking exactly the same! Doing it the way you suggest, means that you don’t have raised edges from the way for head screws. Plus, it means you don’t have to spend time measuring centres and then finding that you are slightly out! With a floating stud, you can adjust the position at time of driving the drywall screws into the board. Most studs have a line running through the middle to highlight the centre of the study, which aids in installation.

    • @kraven4444
      @kraven4444 Před 3 lety

      @@steves1460 to be honest I've never heard of NOT securing the studs ahead of time. None of these videos ever have any electrical or anything in the walls conveniently. You can't just close up the walls first day. On some planets we have wires and outlets and those have to be inspected and thus the wall be open at least from one side. Easier to work if both sides open. What's wrong with setting the studs in place ahead of time? You know the size of the drywall it's not a surprise. However I did find out there is a crimping tool instead of using screws.

    • @steves1460
      @steves1460 Před 3 lety

      @@kraven4444 If there is no need to fix in place, other than the ends, why bother? It means additional screws that can get in the way and everything locked into place, as well as time. If there is a particular need for it, then fair enough. The crimping tools seem to divide opinion, like Marmite.
