Sorry should should be five bags.

 

[johniosaif]

Yes, but nearly 7m high off of a tower, logistics of a fool to be honest, organised by non plasterers as usual, 48 m2 off a nice scaffold ,lovely to do, I have done twice this size in a hit but organised, not from a budgies platform...

 

[shaky1]

twice the size john on ur own mate or with other spread and lab m8

 

[johniosaif]

twice the size john on ur own mate or with other spread and lab m8

No a two and one gang and the one could flatten also, a rolling set ,no drama really
it was a twelve bag hit but I was fresh back then

 

[shaky1]

waz ur neck shagged afterwards m8

 

[johniosaif]

waz ur neck shagged afterwards m8

No, its fine when the scaffold Is set nice and flat, right height etc, you are always in control on a rolling hit,as opposed to been in a tower, pushing me here and there back again,

 

[shaky1]

i know what u mean m8 if scaff is set up right u can run the ceiling up and down follow each behind no probs happy days m8:RpS_thumbsup:

I'm with John on this one, I've done few ceilings this size and they weren't that demanding but as the saying goes "fail to prepare then prepare to fail" . As a 2&1 working at right height, water and bags all ready it shouldn't pose any problem

Done for half 12 with no drama, even had quater of a bag spare

 

[shaky1]

[Mad82]

[cassie]
