I'll sell you a pair of them for £160

 

[stuart23]

Hardly used

 

[S a plastering]

that's a good offer that they are over 300quid new

 

[PlasterCraftDundee]

I've thought of getting a pair, but would you not need a labourer in for every ceiling you were doing? or is it possible to use them and mix up etc on your own?

Are you trying to make up money after under cutting everyone in Dundee

 

[spunky]

The ones s61 put a pic up are absolute shite they've only got one Spring so you're restricted on you're movement
If you want to get a set you're completely happy with you want to get something like this with gorilla straps anything else will dig into you're legs or make you walk unnaturally

dura stilts have always had good feedback... not heard anything good or bad about the ones ryan sells @Plasterers1StopShop

 

[jack the lad]

Just buy a cheap set till you get hang of it mate. You will look like a dick falling off your £300 stilts

 

[spunky]

A cheap set is 80 quid wasted on something that you're not going to enjoy doing

 

[jack the lad]

Just what you get used to Av got old float probs only £10 use that over my Marshall any day

 

[uni-king]

Cheap stilts are horrible..there cheap for a reason

I use extendable trestles with 6ft x 2ft board on it, your only time on the floor is mixing and swearing getting yer mix chest height onto the board.
All you need goes up ,trowels ,water n mix , you forget or drop anything the swearing starts again along with any trip hazards on the floor good luck.

The original sky walkers (the ones without those crazy feet on in the pic) are the nuts if you ask me. I've had a pair for 5 years now and still as good as the day I got them.

They feel solid and have rubber feet for grip ! Although I did once come off them and f**k me it hurt !!!

Durastilts. Best thing I ever bought. 12 years old now and still good as when I bought them plus the new Velcro leg straps are way more comfy on the leg. Fk all that boards and tressles lark.
