Clive....some of those screws are a few mm difference on centres. Best take them out and do it agin I think. ;)  Don't want standards slipping eh? xD

PS, what length are those screws :S?

 

I'll try and do better on the bit underneath! :)

 

41mm..'coz they were CHEAP in Lidl. Got boxes of 'em.

Yeah, I've slowly come round to the @Nickfromwales idea that more is better and screws are cheap. I'm doing 100mm centres now. Can always add more!

 

 

No that’s the centres for ordinary boards - you’re using MR board and it’s 87.5mm centres unless you use screws longer than 40mm where you can go to 112.5mm....

Now the ceiling screws look too far apart. :ph34r:

150 centres will hold any board 

Just be careful not to sink your screws in to far Exspecially on ceiling They will pop when wet

1 mil into the paper is fine

I’ve just noticed the plain board 

It looks like machine gun fire 

No need to put so many in 

Definately ajust your depth
