    Just got my Blue Line corner bead roller this week, and its a really nice roller. The only down side was it is too narrow to work with USG B1 super wide bead.

    We've been having a lot of interest in Australia with Trim-Tex's Rigid Adjustable Outside Bead that adjusts between 120 - 150 degrees and is also available in the Mud Set range and as an inside bead. Contractors see it as a great solution to irregular angles and poor framing as the bead flexes...

    Well the metal corner bead the homeowner had came in handy after all. I asked him to get some "shiny 90" as we call the metal angle and he got the heavier gauge that wont take screws. He had this metal corner bead so we put it to good use.
