Best patch job :)

All the other sites recommend using 2X4's as support, and include many extra steps! Thanks for making this an easy and effective repair, inclusive of a video! Gotta go, I'm off to the hardware store.

Patch Support
Submitted by Drywall How To (not verified) on Thu, 2009-04-09 10:16.
Whether or not the patch needs additional support (such as 2x4's) is subject to the size of the hole itself. For a hole of this size, caused by a doorknob or other minor damage, this is by far the best (and most pain-free) way to tackle it. If your drywall damage is 1'x 1' or larger, some extra support will be needed.
