Drywall Tools Reviewed

This is the best selling drywall cutter by far. It's superior ability to cut through drywalling is second to none - one of it's best features is the fact that it's dual magnetised blades cut through both the front and the back face at the same time. It also cuts 90 degree angles in one pass and the blades are a simple no-fuss task to replace.

The housing is a nice design - fairly chunky, a robust feel to it and a cushioned grip where the palm sits. The Blade Runner will cut a variety of ways - edges, curves, random shapes and can handle both scoring and cutting equally well. A well designed hand tool, almost fun to use and definitely improves drywalling work.

This is one of those dry wall tools you can't live without - and will wonder how you managed without it once you've bought one. The design is extremely basic but - it works. You simply slip the lifter beneath a drywall sheet, place pressure on it (with the foot) and it lifts the board up, into place and allows you to achieve a nice, tight seam.

When you're working alone it really does came into it's own. It's unbelievably robust, small enough to drop in your pocket and doesn't mind sharing space with the rest of the tool bag. Despite what it looks like it really is an effective leverage tool - and for the price it's an absolute steal.

Again, this one's another drywalling tool you'll wonder how you managed without. The design is also as basic yet effective as the previously featured product - and it's incredibly affordable. Designed to lift a range of boards, it's a bonus tool to have around when you're hauling drywall panels from A to B.

Manufactured by Stanley, it's durable, simple to use and includes a handle that will further extend the reach by around 14" - making it suitable for just about anybody. It will carry drywall, wooden panels - in fact anything of a similar size and shape. Innovative, effective and cheap - one to buy.

If you need a wall hanging drywall tool that's up to a professional standard - this is the best selling lifting machine on the market. It will take up to 150lbs, it's manufactured from a solid steel frame with robust swivel wheels and it's easy to operate and work with.

The wall hanger allows the user to singularly lift drywall panels into place. You don't need a second pair of hands or help from friend or family member. The design allows you to work unaided, whether you're drywalling vertical or ceiling panels. It's a lot less expensive than many of the lifting jacks on the market and worth every cent if you're about to undertake a large project.

This is the best selling pocket drywall sander. It's good for sanding down after cutting, it's compact, durable and gets the job done. It's a good size, despite being small enough to drop in your pocket - and when you're working with it, it's comfortable and effective and leaves a nice professional finish.

There's a set of small guides that fold down to protect your hand when rasping and the rubber grip helps a fair bit when you're running it across the drywall. As drywall tools go it's affordable, efficient, small and basic - and does exactly what it says on the box.
