I wasn't planning to do this video today, but it came out of a conversation I had with someone in the Comments feed below my last plasterboard fixings video https://goo.gl/HGrGNZ

I was recommending the best fixings (anchor fixings being my top recommendation in this situation) for hanging a 6kg picture on a plasterboard wall.

But the person I was discussing this with said he had thought of combining a heavy duty picture hook with a screw and plasterboard fixing - so I thought I'd give it a try to see whether it was worth recommending on my channel.

TODAY'S TOOLKIT
Electric Drill (for drilling the holes into the plasterboard)
Electric Screwdriver (not essential but makes it a bit easier!)
Anchor Setting Tool https://geni.us/Id1M (Amazon)
Drill bits - 8mm/6mm
Hollow Wall Anchors (M5 x 52mm for 12mm plasterboard). 10mm drill bit required https://goo.gl/Z9I0bO
Fischer UX635R fixing 6mm dril bit required. You must use the right screws eg 4x50mm https://goo.gl/YfGHKW as if the screw is too thick, the plug will not knot properly behind the plasterboard
Fischer Duopower 8x40 fixing - 8 mm diameter drill bit
GripIt yellow plasterboard fixings 15x20mm https://geni.us/tnuC2 (Amazon) - screws supplied
