  • (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👍

    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!

    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!

    @Poco50guitar Před 3 lety +1

    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.

  • @chrismaffett1973

    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!

    • @pound6599
      @pound6599 Před 2 lety

      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.

    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.
