same as these:
QUALITY BUILDERS STILTS 24" to 40" DRYWALL PLASTERING on eBay (end time 24-Mar-11 18:52:42 GMT)

hi lads
gotta put some cornicing up that is 150x150mm and aint gonna fit in normal cove block. cant seem to find one online... any suggestions? can i make one?
i like hop ups but you spend £30 - £50 for one height. stilts vary so once your used to them i guess they will be better as you can always work at the right hight to ceiling??
i'm 6ft and work varies from 2.4 to 3m but 2.4 is alright with a crate really. so should prob go for the 24-40's? gona be f**k**g scary when i first get on them ah?
hi guys,
right, i have never done in situ cornice work before and not sure i ever will, but if someone can explain to me how you form corners i might just give it a go. i've watched videos on youtube and they show the straights being run but stop short of the corners.
where's kirk when you...
speaking of Kirks guides - did he do one for making ceiling roses? i'm sure i saw it a while back but can't find it, just did a search and all i came across was a row between him and rockhard - funny stuff when you read back
hi Guys,
have you heard all this stuff in the news recently about the government 'getting tough' on people who avoid paying tax - even tho its totally legal? load of bollox
what kind of things can and do you put through as work expenses which could be deemed as tax avoidance? tea bags? milk...
i dont like this trade point thing. the discount card was so much better where you actually got things cheaper! u can buy a bag of plaster at the normal till for the same price it is at trade point. at least before you used to get 5% back or whatever it was at the end of the month. plus for...
hi guys,
does anyone who does domestic work except payment by credit or debit card? paypal do this ''email invoicing'' thing which has a button on for the customer to pay you using CC or DC... was wondering if you think it would be something customers might like as they can spread the cost of...
Yeah it's in a pretty sad state. It's Victorian so pretty old. Could do with a lot of work but like I say we may be selling soon so don't really wana be slashing out! I'll keep trying to upload pic so u can see the issue
nothing really, the fence post between us and next door... no down pipes or anything. will have a good look tomorrow at the outside wall and see if there's any dodgy pointing or cracked bricks or anything and watch next time it rains for any faulty guttering
haha, no worries mate, i enjoy the sarcasm. cheers for the info - i'm no expert on damp, was just a suggestion from some one else as to what it looked like. i'll try and get a pic up and then maybe you can let me know what you think i should do
its not on the wall with the window - its the wall thats 90degrees to the window... if that makes sense - are you suggesting that the problem is coming from outside flynnyman in a round about, sarcastic way?
cant seem to get a pic attached, keeps saying its too big even tho its only 12kb...
hi
its in the corner by the window and spreads across the wall about 2m. no furniture... trying to attach a pic.
and btw flynnyman, i may only be a plasterer but i'm not that thick
cheers
hi guys
now i know most of you are gona tell me to do the job properly but i'm trying to save some dosh and we are thinking of selling the flat anyway so:
Bedroom wall which has neighbor's on the other side appears to have rising damp... (hollows, flakey paint, stains.)
weighing up the options...
Darwin is in desperate need of tradesmen, they have something like a 40,000 home shortage... they only do rendering and dry lining up there tho as its tropical
