Mounting 8' plywood across studs?
I am in a new townhome finished last year, so it's modern... it seems the studs are 24" apart, though there may be a few extra.
Obviously a 4x8 sheet at length matches exactly with the studs (I'm guessing that's not exactly a coincidence?) but am nervous about mounting across 4 studs as I worry about being able to reliably mount at basically the very-edges of the plywood, hoping the studs are in fact at properly-measured distance. Should this be totally fine or should I aim to shorten my plywood and just spread across 3 studs with some overlap (would much rather use full 8' length)
