I'm trying to cut drywall for a bathroom vent and want to make sure my template is perfectly straight. I only have a regular 12-inch level and a speed square at my disposal, but no laser level. Is there a straightforward method to achieve this?

A good tip is to measure from two different walls. Since nothing in your house is perfectly straight, using two reference points can help you line things up nicely. Just pick a reliable wall or feature to base your measurements on.

Exactly! This technique really makes a difference in achieving a straight cut.
