Can you tell me a few tips on how to properly hang drywall?

1. Make sure to wear protective gear such as safety glasses and work gloves when handling wallboard and tools.
2. Measure and cut the wallboard to the appropriate size.
3. Install furring strips to the walls for extra support.
4. Start by hanging the bottom row of wallboard, using a level to check for accuracy.
5. Secure the wallboard to the furring strips using drywall screws.
6. Carefully measure and cut the pieces for the remaining rows, using the same techniques.
7. Overlap the seams between sheets and fill with joint compound, sanding smooth when dry.
8. Finally, apply joint tape to the seams and fill with a thin layer of joint compound.
