Ha fairy liquid. Takes me back to the 80's mixing for my old man, we'd use use it because it was cheaper than feb mix plastisiser. It worked just as good so couldn't knock it.
how much does the weather effect you during a year regarding lost days and money?
I started to concentrate mostly on rendering and Ewi during 2015 but if I could add up the days I've lost due to rain ect and the mornings I have had to pay lads to just stand around, then I might as well of just...
Thanks for the replies but I.m only really interested in the sur stilts..
Sur stilts from ebay 199 or sur mag stikts from the usa...is there a difference.?
I need a pair of stilts and some of you seem to rate the sur stilts but which ones? Theres the ones on ebay for £199 . They are double sided but there is another type of double sided one from usa called sur mag stilts. They look like they are yellow on the front..

Well lads , how are u expected to make a living rendering with our current weather??? Seriously its getting beyond a joke. Sometimes i think id be better off skimming all day and mixing on me own listening to the radio. It might drive me insane and burn me shoulder out but id least i could crack...
I think its the same as free ruling. Float out a section of a wall rule off and fill in etc and then use that block of screed as a reference to work off for the next block. Same thing just a different name i think.
Thanks, mystery sorted lol
Arr think ive got it. Its what i call free ruling. If im not using screeds on a long wall that just has to be flat then i float out about 2m across and down. Rule up and then across, fill in the slacks , rule off and then use that block of screed as a guide for the next one.
Thanks
Hello
I read a thread about screeds and one lad said about block ruling instead of doing verticle screeds.
So could someone give explain how you block rule cos i have never heard of this method before.
Ive done verticle & horizontal screeds, dot and screed, box screeds, ruled off beads and...
