Im a little late in replying here to this, but Gary you may want to re-consider whether you really want to do it your self or sub-out the sheetrock work. Hanging the ceiling is NO easy task, and it really is TOUGH work. Ive helped do it before, and man was it a work-out LOL. Hanging the sheets on the walls vertically (cant speak for horizontally but I cant image it is that much different) is a piece of cake (well when you dont screw up in the cutting department!) but those ceilings are hard work. If you and your buddies dont feel 100% up for the work on the ceilings, i would hire a professional crew to come in and hang them for you. That way you still save some money doing the walls yourself.... Just a suggestion though
