When everything you need to be purchased, and drywall sheets are dried up, you can start forming a gypsum plasterboard ceiling with your own hands. To begin with, it is necessary to decide whether it will be completely even coating, or there will be levels, some protrusions, or other forms, calculate where the lamps will be, and immediately solve it built -in, or ordinary. It is also necessary to immediately decide that they will hide the ceilings from drywall (pipes, wiring, and so on), and besides this, how much the ceiling will be omitted. By the way, you can play well in the visual perception of the room, for example, if you make gypsum plasters ceilings in the corridor lower than in the room, it will seem much higher than it is actually.

When everything is decided, you can begin to mark the ceiling from drywall with your own hands, and cut dry cardboard sheets. For markings, as a rule, a metal ruler is used, and a pencil (if you need a line in full sheet, you can use a level or a metal profile). After the marking of the sheet is carried out, it should be drawn several times along this line with an effort to form a groove, and then putting a sheet of the cut line on the edge of the table, press evenly. Since the upper part of the sheet has an incision that has disconnected the cardboard coating, and also slightly damaged the gypsum layer itself, the sheet is completely broken into two parts, but it is worth considering that on the other hand there is also a cardboard that needs to be cut after the fracture and not let it not let it go disconnect from gypsum (do not pull, and do not tear).

When it comes to creating a gypsum plasterboard ceiling with your own hands, this procedure is perhaps the simplest, and after the first sheet, you can learn to successfully mark and cut drywall sheets without problems. But in this process you can encounter complexity, sometimes you need to cut only three centimeters, and if you do it, just as you usually mark the ceiling from drywall with your own hands when cutting sheets, then the probability of a successful completion of the operation is almost zero. Therefore, in order not to damage the sheet itself, you need to mark and make the grooves (as deep as possible) on both sides of the sheet, and only then break, using the thumb as an stop.
