[* black] Use your utility knife to cut the new piece of wallboard, making it a little smaller than the actual size of the ceiling opening, so that the installed piece will have a small gap around the edges. Pic 1.
-[* black] Mark an arrow on the wall (or trim piece, as shown) and another arrow on the existing ceiling opposite, both pointing to the ***center ***of the middle ceiling rafter. Pic 3.
[* icon_note] These arrows are your points of reference for drawing a line across the new piece to indicate where the drywall screws will go to secure the new piece to the dead center of the middle rafter.
