So, now, you know, I inspected the door jam. There was a nail sticking out. You want to be checking any other nails sticking out, not set. You want to make sure you have your nails set. And then also, you know, the carpenters didn't do a very good job. And there's a lot of volcanoes. Definitely be able to um scrape them off. These carpenters, you know, throughout this house, uh there wasn't an issue at all with um the nail heads causing volcanoes. So, we haven't had to really scrape anything, but this is always with me, the Lind by scraper. You know, just in case that's an issue. Now, I'm going to begin um you patching everything. And the first thing we do is we patch with spackle. And I don't like to have a ton of spackle, you know, on my knife because, you know, it will dry out. Now, spackling, we're just going to I usually kind of hit it a couple times. You want to leave kind of a little small mound on there. You want to have something to sand. I don't want to do what I call like scraping it completely tight like that cuz it is going to dry and shrink a little bit. So, we want just to leave a little bit of mound. Not a whole lot of pressure, but just a little bit of pressure. And I would say it's really good to have kind of a system and a process to doing this. If you kind of just like bounce all around, you're bound and determined to you'll like miss something. So you'll the system could be just the face you'll left to right then and coming back the inside right to left and then the other base left to right just kind of come up with some system leave a little bit behind. Also I like to have you pretty wet spackle like new spackle. If you're using spackle that's pretty dried out. it's really difficult to work with and um and it just kind of makes it a little bit frustrating for you. So, I always keep the lid on the spackle. Might have shown you that before, but if you if you just kind of set the lid aside, your spackle is going to start drying out on top and then you're going to be working with dried spackle, which is kind of a pain in the neck, and I hate doing that. So, and you know, if you leave, I would say too big of a mound of spackle on there, then you're just going to have to do a lot of sanding. So, there's kind of like just kind of like a little fine line, you know, from, you know, what's too much, what's not enough. Um, I'd say just not enough is actually just scraping it tight completely off like that. The spackle sands, you know, fairly…
