"Corner clips" solve this problem without adding expensive lumber just to support the edge of the drywall.

Practical solution to those additional headaches especially when walls studs or ceiling rafters are hard to access.
Are they available at the usual suppliers, or a specialized outlet.
Thanks for your great series!

Hello Malcolm,
Corner clips used to be in all the renovation centres, sold by CGC along with their compounds. But now they seem to be very difficult to find. One viewer found they had to buy a box of 500 from the states. If you find a good source for small quantities, let us know.
