INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Run an electronic stud finder horizontally along the wall until you can locate the studs. The stud finder will flash an LED bulb or emit a beeping sound when it's placed over a stud. Work slowly so that you can be precise, and aim to mark the exact center of each stud. Use a pencil to place a light mark at the center of each stud. If your stud finder readings are uncertain or erratic, just move the stud finder up or down on the wall a few inches and run it across the stud again. Once you've found the center point of each stud, mark it with a pencil in several locations up and down the wall. Then, hold a snap line vertically so that it crosses all of the center-marks. Hold the top and bottom of the snapline firmly against the wall. Pull the center of the string out from the wall and then release, so it snaps back in place and leaves a chalk line behind. The chalk line should indicate the center of each stud. Mark these chalk lines as high as you're planning to build the wall, whether that's 6 feet (1.8m) or 20 feet (6.1m). Once you've snapped a chalk line along each stud, you'll want to double-check to make sure that the lines are fully vertical, with no deviations. Hold a carpenter's level vertical along each of the chalk lines. Check the bubble at the bottom of the level: it should float between the 2 lines on the glass tube. This indicates that the line is vertical. If you don't already own a carpenter's level, you can purchase one at any hardware store or home-supply store. Shiplap boards are thin (about 1 inch (2.5cm) thick). Shiplap boards have a small groove in the bottom and a small ridge on the top. This feature allows them to be stacked easily. If you can't find actual shiplap (or find the price prohibitive), it's common to use 1in 6in (2.5cm 15.2cm) boards instead of actual shiplap. These should be available at most hardware stores and lumber yards. Make sure the boards are straight, flat, and free of knot hole cavities before purchasing them. Avoid using warped boards. Keep in mind that lumber sizes are measured before being sanded smooth. A 1in 6in (2.5cm 15.2cm) will actually measure about 0.75in 5.5in (1.9cm 14.0cm).

SUMMARY: Find the vertical studs behind the drywall. Mark the studs using a snapline. Confirm the vertical lines with a level. Purchase your shiplap material.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Ask the butcher if the weisswurst you're buying needs to be fully cooked or just reheated. If you're buying packaged weisswurst, read the cooking instructions to determine if you should fully cook the sausages. Since many packaged weisswurst are precooked, you can simply toss them onto a medium-heat grill. Cover the grill and cook the weisswurst until they're completely hot throughout. Turn the weisswurst occasionally and grill them for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the hot weisswurst. Avoid poking the weisswurst casing with a fork, knife or tongs to prevent the flavorful liquid inside the sausage from leaking. Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for medium-heat. Brush the grill grate with vegetable oil, so the sausages don't stick to the grill. Place the weisswurst on the grill over indirect heat. Cover the grill and let the weisswurst cook until they reach 140F (60C). Frequently turn the sausages and spray them with a little water or beer, so they brown evenly and don't split. Remove the cooked weisswurst from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate. Lay a sheet of aluminum foil over the sausages and let them rest for 5 minutes. They'll finish cooking and then you can serve the hot weisswurst. You can store leftover grilled weisswurst in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.

SUMMARY:
Determine if your weisswurst is raw or pre-cooked. Reheat weisswurst on the grill if they're precooked. Grill the raw weisswurst over medium-low heat. Rest and serve the grilled weisswurst.
