I agreed with that, but we still cut and found that the tape line was at 48.75" from floor. I wondered if we could have just pulled the tape, but I was hesitant cuz I was afraid the tape might "run" and ruin the rest of the wall so we still cut which was a PITA. I'm going back Monday and I will try this guy's method on one wall to see how it works out.
