working out of a bucket as well.... bending down for every hawk/Handboard full... sorry that to me makes no sense at all
 
So.... In summing up.... The lad has not put scrim on, working from a bucket (No Spot Board), using a ladder instead of the trestle, and keeps taking his trowel down from the top instead of across.... All so the fact there are plasterers from 200 years ago that are faster ( And there corpses ).

All in all the future of our trade in the UK is in good hands.
 
I work out tubs but off my board on my trestles but since no doubt his back needs building up I'm sure it's fine, pain generally changes your thinking in time how to make things easier.
Took me long time to charge more do less and not do anything at all if I don't want to.:birras:
 
I want to take on an apprentice or improver but after watching that I dont !
Could he have at least faced the ladder towards the f**k**g wall and not be turning sideways

I recall dancing to madness on the radio with my mate on the top terrace of his gaff, impromptu madness indeed mid rendering as the architect appeared and didn't know what to make of it.:bailando: :hola: :bailando:
 
really? The thought of working out of a bucket just makes me want to throw myself in front of a bus
 
Is the guy filming him to take piss on showing how wrong he's doing it or filming him as he's proud? I don't know y u wud let a lad skim a wall with no scrim on it and then knowing ur going to have to redo it all..looks a nice house aswell don't get the point of the vid its guy who's filming it wants slating not the 2 month apprentice..on checkatrade I see aswell lol

If it's just skim we mix 3 bag each in a bin and smash that on 3 gauges n go home .floating does set in a bucket .we mix that in a cut down mortar tub n throw it on the spot board with a snow shovel

Spot boards are great if you have someone to load it up .but the meter age prices in Manchester ain't enough to fanny about like that
