Sorry, i didnt really make it very clear. I was trying to ask if anyone dabs it this way. I dont run a line at the top and bottom just do dabs in rows. I think i should have put dabbing instead of boarding as the title!!

Yeh thats how I do it but without that bit of kit.

you should put solid bead on the bottom of the boards to the chippy has a fixing for the skirting

I always thought there was a quicker easier way.

we ve been told you gotta solid dab tops , skirting , perimeter of doors , perimeter of windows, reveals, sockets ,external angles and internal angles, f@ck me should just float it wouldnt take as much gear

Dont do it that way here in Spain as it is not regs but in the U.K. it is N.H.B.C. regs that all perimiters including doors and windows are solid bedded so you should all be doing that way at least on new builds anyway.

thats ruff not enough dabs on the middle and he has broken the biggest rule of dabbing he hasnt dabbed solid dabs all around the gas pipe, if someone bangs a hole through that pipe the gas will leak behind the whole wall before you knew it.......................ruff very ruff, also a foot leaver would of closed the big gaps at the top of the boards.

just tack it with a clout nail that works and its quicker
