surpising what you miss when theres money involved , cathal has the rite idea with a straight edge , pity wasnt done in the first place :-0

Was there a fixing channel fix or any type of noggins , Iv seen when noggins have been fix either too lose or too tight and twist the studs ,which pushs boards askew ( nice word ):glare:

my sons are always saying, YOU NEVER WRONG ARE YOU <

I think it was to do with the suction of the board,if i rember correctly , could be wrong , which is very unusal for me according to my sons :RpS_crying:

a mate of mine was a teacher who went back to our old school to teach ,and loved his gargle. he was a messy feckin lad on the drink specialy st pats day or rugby , normally you see him out on the beer clelibrating his face would be painted green white and orange and a bright green suit , anyway...

Over next week , always follow the Sun :RpS_thumbsup:

do you remmber when boys were boys at school and one child would bragg out high he could piss and the next child would say i can piss higher than that , some children never grow up and go though life thinking thats all they have to do to be a man is piss higher than the other child , seems some...

let it go off to your touch then rub it up with a wet spronge float , not too heavy , then pat it , it will give you a nice stipple finish or even just use a float , its a common finish in Ireland called napping ,

Hope the weathers better week after next , me and young lad moving over, pissed off with illness , feckin rain and too many feckin bills to pay !back to the sunny south east !:RpS_thumbsup:

Remmbed pulling up to traffic lights in London one morning and half sheet of plasterboard flew off the roof rack landed in the yellow box , everyone looking to see where it came from , me included , so i stopped to pick it up , DID I f*** straight over it and carried on my merry way :RpS_thumbsup:

lifts arent worth the trouble on pricework , too much poncing around with them ,

its awhile since I went lamping, a lot of the lads around here use them for lamping !Is that you with the red van spreads ?

still throwing up 8x4 on my todd at 58 years old , a couple 2x1 , no prob , except the first time i try it with 15mm fireboard , my frigging ball s hit the floor before the board did, i then put the 12mm on the ceiling and the 15s on the stud , problem solved , went outside and unhitched my...

was ask to try and sort out a underground car park ceiling over her a few years ago , all thermal boards fixed with just metal mushrooms , the company was a fire prevention firm and they had got in some cowboys to do the job , it was meant to be tape jointer , so i go down there and the person...

tosh nail it with 50mm roofing nails, get them in as far as you can , then use something like metal rod and hammer on it send them home , iv got a bucket of 50,s thats why i use them when i can :rolleyes)plus too mean to buy screws

when i was artexing we always used artex put up coving , it was quick and easy to clean down with a spronge, used in my house , been up nearly 10 years no problem :RpS_thumbsup:

look at the size of a screw head , its a few mm, look at the size of a gal roofing nail nearly 10/15 mm and i sleep at night, becoz I dont get call backs becoz we feckin nail for years with not problems , has I said it works for me , but if the customer or builder wants it screwed I screw it ...

50mm roofing galvenise nails work a treat , pull the boards in and no popping , works for me every time

sounds more like a brickie than a spread, :-(

I like to see a lamp shone on that stair well :confused:

I paint over it and tell people artex is making a come back :RpS_thumbsup:

shoot the dog , noise problem solved!

simple , if you dont ask you dont get, why do we go to work for, :RpS_mellow:

if they are lath boards they should have a3mm gap between them , last time i used them about ten years ago :RpS_blink:

allways stuck and skimmed same day was only way to earn a decent wage, and any gear left over we use that to stick
