And patching drywall will probably always will be part of a home improvement life, so any time I find a tip or trick I can share that might make it easier, I try to. So, enjoy this video!

The nuance here is that the drywall is over cut (I wonder who did that?!). And, the hole is round, so in the video—yes, you have to watch to find out—I show a few tips I like for taking care of odd shapes and voids when there’s nothing behind the compound to hold it in place.

My go-to for this tape job is my Hyde Tools taping knife.
