Content: Cut shallowly again, to avoid cutting further into the ceiling or floor. Pry away to remove. 10
Measure the distance between the inner edges of the plates to determine the stud length. Cut one stud to fit for each wall raw edge. If the removal occurs at the end of a wall, there is one raw edge. Removing half the wall in the middle of the wall creates two raw edges. Put glue on the stud ends and insert the studs between the plates. Toenail -- drive the nails at an angle -- through the end, into the plate. 11
Cut a strip of plywood 3 1/2 inches wide by the length of the wall opening. Use the thickness of the existing plywood -- typically 3/4-inch thick for subfloors.
