Had a drywaller tell me last week that mudding is 90% knife work and 10% compound, and he might be right.

He showed me how he feathers edges with almost no sanding after, and now I'm wondering if I've been overworking my joints this whole time... anyone else heard this approach before?

Sanding like a madman" hits home, I've noticed the same pattern with a lot of stuff in life though - people spend all their time fixing mistakes instead of learning how to not make them in the first place. It's like the shortcut is actually the better way once you figure out the real trick.
