I'm having problems where the end of a sheet of drywall is screwed
into a stud. If I screw the edge down, it usually causes the drywall
to crumble and break away from the paper. I'm trying to keep as far
from the edge as I can, but it doesn't seem that 3/4 inch (when 2
sheets are butted up at 1 stud) is much to work with. I'm using 1 1/4
inch screws, and an drill attachment that limits the depth of the
screw. Do nails work better at the edges? Does anyone have any
advice on how to do this better?
Thanks!
