Abstract: The present invention relates to a drywall support device. More particularly, this invention relates to a drywall support device for temporarily attaching a sheet of drywall to a ceiling for easier permanent attachment by using a lift system to raise the sheet of drywall to the ceiling. This device is an elongated support which allows for "hands-free" permanent attachment of sheets of material to both conventional or irregularly sloped ceilings. The device has three essential components: (1) a pair of ceiling joist support brackets; (2) an elevatable drywall support; and (3) a threaded screw-type mechanism with a handle to raise the elevatable support to a desired elevation.
