First, contributing editor Rick Arnold will show you how to save 30% on time, labor, and material costs during the framing phase of your next project. You’ll see how to reduce lumber without compromising strength, work with your local building department to satisfy the code, and provide backing where your siding, drywall, and trim subcontractors are going to need it.
Next, drywall expert Myron R. Ferguson will demonstrate his best techniques for an organized, professional-looking drywall installation that avoids the most common mistakes made by beginners and seasoned installers alike. Whether it’s the basics of spreading joint compound or Myron’s proven secrets for saving time, this seminar offers something for everyone.

You’ll learn how to make a story pole quickly and how to use the story pole to make the siding match up where it has to.

Will we need to pre-register? Thanks, all!
No need to register. Just put the date on your calendar and visit Fine Homebuilding.com April 24th at noon.
At that time everyone can watch it free. After that we'll put it up on the membership side so any member can watch and rewatch it any time.
Noon in what time zone?
Too funny not mentioning the time zone. Kinda' like folks who advertise on the web but don't include an area code with their phone number.
I can hear the webmaster grumbling - doesn't everyone know exactly where are offices are and that it is the center of the universe?
another one for time zone.
Sorry guys.
We're in the Eastern time zone, so that would be 11:00 Central, 10:00 Mountain, and 9:00 Pacific.
Hope to see you then,
Dan
