Hello,

After finding out that I officially suck at taping on a 12x12 room, I've decded to get smart and see about finding someone who won't get half the mud on the ground to do the bulk of my house. . . and who's faster. You know. . . machines and all. Or, if you're good at it and have time to show a moron how to do it right, lemme know.

Otherwise, any leads to a good drywall contractor would be appreciated.

-'Chung

ok, I don't suck as bad as I think, but I'm SLOW.
