What happens here

After the shims have been strategically placed and secured, the presenter re-positions the long orange level against the now-shimmed wall stud. He carefully observes the bubble in the level's vial. This time, the bubble rests perfectly centered between the two indicator lines, confirming that the wall stud is now perfectly plumb and straight. This visual confirmation signifies that the repair is successful, and the wall is ready for the next stage of finishing, such as drywall or tile backer board installation.

Goal: Confirm the wall stud is now plumb and straight

Tools and materials

  • Level — To verify the plumb and straightness of the corrected wall stud
