    Plastering over a cracked painted solid wall.

    Hack off the plaster yo expose the crack.. if its just blown plaster due to peril.. bond n skim.. if the brickwork/blockwork is cracked. Rake out the crack fill with a epoxy resin. And mechanically fix eml n bond up n skim.. pretty much the same as johniosaif said..!! Thumbs up

    A guide to using stilts

    Try to get on them both at same time.. do your calf straps first.. this will stabilise your legs.. then do your toe straps.. To get off them do the exact reverse. Toe straps, then calf straps. U will b alot more stable whilst locking yourself in..!!!
