Me again,
What's the best bead to straighten up plasterboard?
Its for this awkward job :RpS_unsure:

Thanks in advance :RpS_cool:

 
Thanks Superspread, shall i still charge the customer the £6 for the bead from tp?
 
I'm gonna have to start taking photo's cos i do a fair bit for farmers who are excellent at building well that's what they tell me anyway :RpS_unsure:
 
No its bang on works great on external angles and no need to mess around with a junior hacksaw to cut beads down:RpS_thumbup:

Hacksaw? I just put my trainer on them & wiggle the bead up & down till it snaps,
I have to do this on B&Q car park most mornings to get them in my Nissan micra :)
otherwise they stick out the passenger window & get stuck in customers hedges etc when I get to the job :-(
 
i would screw piece a plasterboard
like on the picture
so the edge of that plasterboard gives u straight line
then u need to bonding the hole behind (ceiling), let it go off, unscrew plasterboard and take it off.
stick the bead to the edge

they think building is like farming, anything is near enough!
