I finally spent $40 on a drywall lift attachment for my mud pan
It saved me from crawling back and forth on the floor for a whole bedroom ceiling job last week, anyone else use one of those or just stick with the bucket and trowel?

Did you notice how much less mud ended up on your shoes and pants with that thing? I swear half my cleanup time used to be scraping dried compound out of my boot treads or picking it off my jeans before it got on the carpet. The lift attachment keeps you off the floor but it also keeps the mess contained, which is a win nobody talks about. Plus your back has to be thanking you for not hunching over a bucket every two minutes.

Scrape the hell out of your boots over a stiff brush before you even step inside. I keep an old wire brush by the back door for exactly this reason. Also if you spray a little cooking oil on the lift's plate before you start, that mud slides right off instead of baking on like concrete. Not a cure all but cuts my cleanup time in half easy.
