Oh wow, you can really see how fucked up those 2x4s are/were. Told you, son. Should've replaced em.
If that wall is load bearing couldn't you just put in a support near the doorway and open that entire wall? Turn that into an island counter across the opening the entire length of the wall and really open that up? Put some bar height stools outside the kitchen and its a cool eating/hang out area plus the place looks bigger.
1 1/2 bags 45min joint compound. 1/2 gallon general purpose mud.
I do the jointing and floating one after the next. I’d guess this is first coat, I’ll be finished after 2nd cost. Probably finish the gallon of mud.
