How can you find the wall stud without a stud finder?

Answer By putting your ear to the wall : A wall is a collection of studs (usually sized 2x4 or 2x6) equally spaced (usually 16 in. or 24 in. on center) and sandwiched between top and bottom plates. : If you start from the corner, you can measure 16" or 24" and hope that you find a stud. You can hit the wall, and where it sounds more hallow, no stud exists where the sound is higher, there is a stud. But if you can't tell a difference, then measuring could be your only bet.


What is benefit of 2x6 stud over 2x4 stud?

Higher strength. If you are framing over 12' you will need to double the 2 x 4s or go to a 2 x 6 stud. Sometimes 2 x 6s are used to make the cavity larger to allow pipes to be concealed within the wall. Sometimes they are used to bump the insulation value from a R13 to a R19.
