"The thing is, just gettin it up there. When you are working by yourself, it's not an easy task. You got to out lift, up lift some things. I manage because I know how to do what I'm doing. Right now I can say the whole side I put up here, I'm trying to screw it down. So once I finish this section here, I'm going to show you how to put sheet rock up here. I'm also going to show you how to plaster it once I get it up here. All that stuff is easy steps to do what you got to do as long as you know where your studs are at. Being that this is the wall and it already has more less studs in it, as well as a piece of wood to it, I worry about finding my studs. But usually you got to find your studs when you're trying to screw something into it, a wall. Just don't try to screw it into sheet rock because it isn't going to hold because of strength. But since this is wood, I don't have to worry about my studs. So I'm just trying to screw it on in, make sure it stays down. Once I finish this area getting it nice and level and get a little in, then I go to my sheet rock. And like I said that is the basic step, you know what I mean?"
