Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.

When I was the safety officer of my college fraternity, I patched a fair few holes in drywall from parties and slammed doors. I always used offcuts from Home Depot and paint stirring sticks because it saved a ton of money

@ankereisenman4824, do you use the paint stirring sticks in place of a putty knife or trowel?

@693darkwing Жыл бұрын

@@mollyadams1728 you use them for support behind the patch as opposed to cutting and buying wood pieces.

Try the fast drying spackle (pre-mixed). It's great because it doesn't leave cracks when it dries.

Oh don’t listen to naysayer stuff - you’re great Mike- love whatever you put out. It takes time to get things going and film and supply gathering and budgets- omg so much that’s not shown - I’ve done 2 flips - it’s a lot of stuff - keep on keeping on - love your videos I watch them over and over and I’m not fixing anything🤣🤣 I’m 67 yrs and I think your parents are so proud - I am and I’m not even your parent!! Great job!!!

Use California patch for small holes, not the kits. Use a raking light to check your sanding for smoothness

Hey Mike, great video as usual. But real man, that's a nice house! I wouldn't call it "a hole in the wall!" Lol. Nah I'm joking. Also on a medium sized hole, you can use a 1 by and if not near a stud. And just run a couple screws into the good drywall, and into the board your holding on the inside of the wall. Then put your piece of drywall in place, and run screws through that piece into the board your previously attached to the good drywall next to the hole. I hope that made since.. lol sorry if not.

The real pro tip on all those repairs is that you don't need to sand with sandpaper. Get a damp sponge and go over the entire patch. It takes a little bit longer, but you don't get drywall dust everywhere.
