Fair one there! I thought we were on about nela black.... Definitely not the same thing

Used one for about 9 months to give it a fair run, absolutely shite for troweling up for some reason drags more than actually troweling muck up... Ended up using it to just lay on and lay down with but it pushing the water back in to the plaster and when troweling up seems to make things gritty...

Milwaukee tripod light all the way maybe abit out of what your willing to spend but suberb light! Has 3 directional lights with a telescopic stand that goes around 8 foot tall, I think this is on the lowest setting in this pic. Collect tomorrow Milwaukee M18 HSAL-0 2.15m 18 / 110V Li-Ion...

Fair point dude... I don't particularly need the work but extra cash is always welcome

f**k me the quotes just become £2190 and il take the rest of the month off with covid

Cut them in half and stick them in :')

So what I've established is the following. - buy a transit custom customers love it and think your the dogs for having a 40k van when a 500 quid rat will do - talk to the customers like they know nothing... Give em a good slap if their out if line - make sure you throw plaster everywhere and...
