Please be warned: a friend noticed some very insensitive language I had forgotten about entirely. I've chosen to leave it since this website should not be surfaced in any discovery engines beyond NeoCities... Hoping that isn't a stupid idea.

Best advice:

"If your drywall tape is bubbling it means you didn't lay enough wall plaster down before putting the tape on."

Taping drywall is a 4 day project according to this video series.

1. Put up the tape and let it dry.
2. Put a second smooth coat on with a wider knife.
3. Put a third coat on with an even wider knife.
4. Sand or sponge smooth.

Putting up drywall tape in the corner of the ceiling. It's important to always start at the middle and work your way towards the sides when smoothing it down with the knife so you avoid bubbles.
