new system for fixing beads

[Ktownsend]

Maybe. It would not be any good for you anyway.

It may be your baby but it won't take off. Sorry to tell you

 

[Ktownsend]

Also, I worked with spreads who would scrim beads on years ago. It's no different

It's fine, you're not the first to tell me.

"It goes in the bin"
Bonus if you can find an alternative word for "inventor"

 

[Cockney]

Yeah, agree, but sometimes board work s**t and have to stick with dabbing...
Staples or clout nails go in to s&c overskims?

Staples do.

I need a "P" please Bob.

There some strong staples your using, when I've tried they just bent up..
Oh well, carry on sticking for me...
Cable clip nails are good if I have some handy..

Obviously Fire them In, so one side goes through a hole in the bead and the other side overlaps the edge of the bead. I staple all beads on, on board.

On about onto sand and cement overskims.
Think I've sussed how to work a stapler.

 

[ChrispyUK]

Even more holes than before.
Reduced from 10mm to 6mm allowing more holes per strip.
I know you will appreciate a tighter hole.

good luck

Correct method is needed though for sure.

How strong is the hold when you cut away from the corner?

 

[tapit]

What do you mean ?

 

[Richard1970]

What do you mean ?

well you got the tape going around the bead, if you cut it off the actual corner, how strong does it hold? or am I missing something silly here?

 

[Deleted member 46546]

Me.

It works. They usually go about half way in then just tap them in with a hammer afterwards. I use staples on everything now

I guess you mean where i cut tape from the nosing of the bead?
This has no effect on the adhesives grip.
It is more than adequate.

That sounds like a great system, you use a staple gun and then still have to whack them with a hammer.
UNBELIEVAAAABLE!

I am currently designing a new flexitrowel with extra long shank.
It's called the King Edward.

Yeah the staples go half way in then gentle tap with a hammer. It's like using a clout nail but doesn't destroy the wall...

I only ever use clouts into wood.
