Video tutorial on the practice of double eyelid ceiling in woodworking

Carpenter's Double Eyelid Ceiling Practice Video Tutorial: Web Link

1. First make a circular ceiling outline with joinery board, and the shape must be round.

2, fixed on the flat top, hanging plate made of 5 mm plate, the direction down, and the following circular ceiling connection, sealed with gypsum board, the last batch of putty. Pay attention to the process of putty batch, and do not expose the wood.

3. The gypsum board at the bottom should also wrap all the round bottom. In short, don't expose the raw materials in the whole process of double eyelid ceiling, which is ugly and may crack.

Matters needing attention in suspended ceiling construction

1. The size ratio is not harmonious: because my family plans to customize the sideboard cabinet to be 30-35 cm, the hanging cabinet is connected to the top, and the width of the sideboard crane reaches 40cm. Due to the limited floor height, the hanging height is only 19cm. It feels mediocre and the proportion is not very good.

Suggestion: If there is no other consideration, the hanging height can be thickened, and the width ≤ height will make the layering stronger and higher. I'll hang up 40 next time. If you don't do double eyelids, in fact, there are already finished double eyelid plaster lines. On the basis of leveling, you can also consider sticking plaster lines, which is more cost-effective.

2. The size of the overlap is too narrow: before my house, there was only 2cm of horizontal and vertical overlap. When I went to see it, it was obviously too narrow, and I felt that the effect of overlap was not obvious. Although the foreman said it was all done, but the narrow edge was delicate, I still insisted on adding an extra layer of gypsum board in the rework of carpentry, and the vertical and horizontal overlap widened 1cm, and the final effect was much more satisfactory than before.

Suggestion: Personally, I think the overlap difference of 2cm is too narrow and almost ineffective. The specific amount depends on the overall size ratio and personal preferences.
