I just wanted to know if you would please inform me if you caulked the planks where you joined the two ends together, or did you just leave it. Please let me know. Starting at the wall on one finish of the ceiling, start out installing the tongue and groove boards. We quickly realized that the shorter the length, the simpler to fit the tongue into the groove.
Seat the nail head so that it is flush or slightly countersunk with the tongue surface so that it does not interfere with the tongue and groove joint. Beadboard or beaded ceilings are developed working with wood tongue and groove boards assembled to make a paneled finish. When the ceiling joists are marked, measure and reduce the tongue and groove beaded boards for install.
Following going to Menard’s & Household Depot tonight and realizing how restricted the selection is for tongue & groove 4″ X 8′ L lumber I got quite a headache! I have a feeling my stomped ceilings will need scraping to eradicate the higher points and permit the planks to be uniform and flat.

Nail the board at each edges and the intersection of each joist (which ought to be marked on the ceiling with chalk or a line). To make it much easier to rip the final board, join the piece to be cut into yet another tongue and groove board.
