Drop Ceiling- Materials
Hi everyone,
1st time attempting a drop ceiling, not sure what materials I need. I have looked at different stores for a kit- do they even make kits? If not, how do you know the hardware needed to put in your ceiling?
I am in Canada and have looked at Home Depot, Rona, Home Hardware.
Thanks!

Before the advent of the rotary laser, the use of strings made it happen. The kit I show next has clamps that tighten down on your L wall brackets, to which you can stretch a string across the room. A little less accurate, but it works. The lags and tool are indispensable when running across joists. It's a kit, but for a small, really small room. You get the idea on what you would need, however.
