Looking for tips, photographs, & instructions on how to frame a basement using 25g steel tracks & steel studs?
Remodeling my basement. Just added a room. Decided to go with light guage steel framing. but there ins't many books or web-sites that offer tips and instructions about how to use steel framing. how to do it and what to avoid.

- It's generally the same as 2x framing. The difference lies in the spacing (that little red diamond in a strange place on your tape measure)and the way it's attached (self-drilling, self-tapping screws ). There's a good website for all kinds of info. http://www.steelframingalliance.com/mc/page.do And here's a couple that explain "how to" http://www.homestore.com/HomeGarden/HomeImprovement/HowTos/HowTos/CRHO_AssemblingStellWallFrames.asp?poe=homestore http://www.bobvila.com/BVTV/HomeAgain/Video-1510-04-0.html
