And you cleaned it for the picture!! So obviously

 

[Danny]

Cant imagine how you are feeling :-(

 

[martinemj]

Maybe Danny will send you a new one

 

[Vincey]

You could drill a new handle in surely worth a try even try that handle mate

 

[Zippydragon]

Buy another one, cut the handle section to where it meets the flat of the back and get someone who can weld to do it?!? Or get breaking in the new one

Never used one of these super old tyzacks. Are they similar to the nela carbons as a old boy picked my nela up and said there like the old tyzacks

Proper floating trowel that mate

 

[pftmonojetman]

The trowel at the end on the right hand side is a very old Tyzack it was given to me by an old boy who got it off an old boy, probably 100 years old it weighs a ton, if you were Plastering with that,a wooden hand board that was piss wet through and a s**t load of lime mortar you’d know you’d done a days graft.

It’s not nice when you break a really good trowel that’s broken in to your way of working

How many of the old boys remember this,
I was on the bath the other week mixing my own haired lime.
