TSI Drywall Mud System? - Drywall Talk - Professional Drywall and Finishing Contractors Forum

Tim0282 · 11-26-2009, 06:05 PM

Have any of you guys seen this or used it? Sounds cutting edge. Or scary! Watch the video and tell me what you think. As an old schooled drywall finisher, I don't know.

Looks like somebody with a fetish for Ghostbusters has gone out in their garage and made a drywall exterminator gun.

Tim0282 · 11-27-2009, 07:47 PM

Does look awfully strange...

Mudstar · 11-27-2009, 08:54 PM

bazooka still faster then 1 foot a second, how about doing angles.............

Tim0282 · 11-27-2009, 09:13 PM

They are saying level 3 at the end of one time over. Level 3 is not real good. How hard would it be to trust not taping the joints? Or angles? Real hard for me! And did you notice the cost of the gun??? 5,000.00 and you have your own sprayer and air compressor!

I wonder why there is no footage of any corners? The other thing I would worry about would be sanding? As stated level 3?????? I would wait untill I hear someone say it is the best $5k they have spent before jumping myself.

I agree with you, LS. Can't imagine it is worth anything near $5K. Not a chance.

Tim0282 · 11-28-2009, 12:05 AM

Isn't level 3 one coat over tape, then 4 is two and 5 is three coats over tape? Before sanding.

TonyM · 11-28-2009, 03:58 AM

It makes too much noise too. That would really get on my tits.

Mudstar · 11-28-2009, 06:25 PM

junk as far as I'm concerned...........the best place for this tool is in the

Tim0282 · 11-28-2009, 06:27 PM

A lot pricey, don't you think?

Mudstar · 11-28-2009, 06:32 PM

I would not even take it for free. I like to listen to music when I work

Whitey97 · 12-01-2009, 11:01 PM

I would take a stab and demo it. It would be interesting to see what it has for long term results. It sure did fill the gaps in that awful rock job though.

At least we finally have a level-headed answer here. I would like to try it, too. Seems interesting.

Whitey97 · 12-06-2009, 11:40 AM

Me level headed....wow, I don't get that too often on here! ha

Whitey97 · 12-06-2009, 11:41 AM

and as far as the noise is concerned about it, they do make mufflers for air tools, I don't see why there wouldn't be an aftermarket solution for that

alltex · 12-06-2009, 05:42 PM

Looks like 4 guys doing th work of 2.seems like it would be zipper city to me with all that crap in the mud.the Kodiak is a good rig though .and what are all those lines and runing to it.I just say no.

McDusty · 12-06-2009, 07:18 PM

that looks like fun to sand, if your idea of fun is poking yourself in the eyeball with a toothpick.

ryanh · 12-08-2009, 12:09 AM

There is no way that guy is achieving 1' per second!. Looks like **** and probally makes a mess
