So why the Lightweight Spackle? I don’t see anything on how to use it? Also the shopping list and cut list don’t add up?
The shopping list and cut list do add up. It might make more since when you are at the store looking at the wood to buy. Lightweight spackle is used to cover up the nail holes before you sand and paint. This is optional of course, you can just let the tiny holes show.
