Just seen this mate I have posted on your post

I used to run a machine done a bit of meshing with hpx base never put the boards up im in Weston 40 min away on train if that any good !

I'm going back on the 10th, done my level 1 and half level 2 diploma! but now they have changed it to city & guilds so im going in to start level 2 again. the standard of work in the college looks a lot better don't know if that's down to the C&G ? still focusing half the course on fibrous...

Cheers bobby

Lol cheers

just experience on the tools I would say the main point is that I was just getting on the tools before the machine came along now all I do is run that and id rather be banging bags in a mixer and bucketing it up as you'll get some interaction with people and a better chance of picking things up...

the biggest problem ive found is anyone having the time to show u I had to literally start picking up the tools and just going for it where as before I worked for someone else who would of cut my fingers off if I did that

ive done quite a bit of scratchin and can normally get a really good finish on it normally I get left to scratch it all on my own while they go beading for next one ! cleaning the filter on our machine is pretty simple can change rota stata if someone holds it in place ! my boss gets recommended...

thanks leebo

I think a year is too early but I was on the tools before the machine came, cheers

I understand your point thanks for your advice mate

what your going back to college ? I did my level 1 - 2 at college and got distinctions in every test and as soon as I got working I realised I didn't know **** all ! theres only so much you can learn from a book and also colleges focus on site work so most of the work in college is paperwork to...

hi keith its a monojet don't know model number or anything sorry, its the hopper on wheels air compressor attatched underneath separate water pump and generator if that helps oh and its orange with the roter and stater it is at the bottom like a twisty thing

its not my place to say get another labourer though maybe if I suggest that I know someone who'll be good for it to test the water, cheers wezly

cheers finn ive been on the tools a little bit but that was before the machine came so ive sort of gone backwards

but I cant just stop doing my job best I can otherwise I wont have a job im ******

a few people have told me this thanks CT

I have and also my boss understands the situation and says that that's all I can do as I am the only lab on the firm he cant pay anyone else to do I which makes sense but where does that leave me I think im stuck ?

Cheers windy

Lol yes plumbing is shocking and unfortunately far beyond me so the dodgey radiator is gonna have to stay ! yes its a conservatory and yes some crazy fool has put a strip of laminate across the wall!

The state of the plaster before was really bad not too sure what happened to it previously, so I took the plaster back to give it some sort of consistent level to make it easier to lay stuff on I suppose ! Yeh its a strip of timber that runs across the wall

Sorry mate its old plaster that has been taken off the walls, and its left a very uneven surface because of the plaster being bolstered of at all different levels ! I posted pics have they worked ?

Dont know what happened but its all over the place I think there was moisture getting in somewhere, Anywho, this is what i think i should do, you guys can tell me otherwise. 2 coat pva, hardwall, poss 2 coats but thin? skim ? Thanks for your time !

Thank you all for your warm welcome ! I know times are hard and its a bugger for anyone trying to make something of thereselves ! Persistance is the key i suppose ! I will visit as many as possible face to face and put a letter together for others. As you guys are plasterers, There must be a...
