How to use stud finder
While holding the stud finder on a spot on the wall where you assume there is no stud... press the button and hold and stay still for 10 or 15 seconds to calibrate. Then while still pressing the button start sliding sideways until the lights indicate the thickest point. You can use a pencil to mark the beginning and end. The center of that is the center of the stud. Measure 3/4 of an inch left and right of it to know it's sides.
