Just started using 1 last week. I've been skimming with 45, on some beat up hallways, Once you get used to it, It's great 👍. Cuts sanding in half.

Perfect for but joints I’ve had mine for years worth every penny

[WillLeingang]

You know they’re good when they make it look this easy ❤

Just got mine. Cant wait. Going the try spraying with a hand hopper.

I just ordered a 24” for a ceiling repair, I used it by hand for a couple passes, so far it’s nice. Just got the pole and will be doing final pass next week.

Can you do a video changing the blade? I took the sides off mine and it won’t come out I don’t want to break it

That’s “Drywall Shorty” ( that’s her channel name ) I been following her for a couple years now . She is really good at drywall

Why did you apply and remove the mud horizontally? How were these walls prepared before this video?

Would love to buy some level 5 tools, unfortunately they go X 3, 4 times the US price here in The Netherlands. 😒

[mexinumba]

When you doing level 5 are you taking most of the mud off or are you leaving a thing consistent layer to later on sand and active level 5?

What is different Level 5 vs Dewalt Skimming blade that is made by Level 5, thanks.

[jesseroberts]

I'd go vertical to ensure a smoother finish.

Is this for professional skimming? I'm a new painter and decorator. I always wanted to learn skimming as a way to have a clean slate to work on.... Is this good for newbies like me. Maybe a 32 would be big enough for me.
