About this listen
In this episode of TORQUE & TAPE — The Blue-Collar Skills, the host teaches how to find a wall stud without using a stud finder, relying instead on understanding, touch, and judgment. Speaking in a calm, first-person mentor voice, the episode breaks down how walls are built, why studs follow predictable patterns, and how sound, feel, and logic work together to reveal what’s hidden behind drywall. Rather than offering shortcuts or tricks, the episode focuses on slowing down, reading the wall, and building confidence through awareness. Listeners are guided through mental preparation, proper setup, and careful execution, learning how professionals think before they ever commit to a hole in the wall. The result is a practical skill that replaces guessing with certainty and teaches listeners to trust their own senses over gadgets.
