In this video, Iβm building a wallπ§±! I’m sharing my step-by-step process for building a small sample wall with a transparent side for field tech training.
With 16-inch studs, drywall, and affordable acrylic from Amazon, this wall lets trainees see exactly whatβs happening inside.
From cutting drywall to adding foldout feet, I cover it all! Ideal for demonstrating wall fishing scenarios with hollow walls, walls with insulation and walls with firebreaks. Donβt miss the backyard demo!

DIYTech #TrainingWall #FieldTechAcademy
π₯ Video Summary:
Michael from Field Tech Academy builds a portable, transparent training wall for IT field technicians. He aims to train employees on scenarios like open walls, insulation, or firebreaks, noting that on-site training is inconsistent. The wall is compact for easy storage, using 16-inch studs to match standard construction. One side has drywall, the other plexiglass, allowing trainees to see tools like fish sticks or drill bits in action. Michael, not a carpenter, prioritizes function over perfection, calculating 16-inch on-center spacing at 17.25 inches. He constructs the wall structure without a table saw, cutting drywall by marking spots, clamping a board, and using a knife to score and snap it. He attaches it with drywall screws and adds a four-by-four eight acrylic sheet from Amazon for transparency. Foldout feet and a handle ensure portability. In a backyard demo, he uses a bungee cord for the legs, but a wind gust topples it on grass, loosening screws. A plywood base stabilizes it. Michael highlights its indoor training potential and plans future videos on specific demos. He encourages viewers to like, subscribe, and follow Field Tech Academy, linking the acrylic sheet for DIYers. The wall is a practical, affordable tool for IT field tech training.
