Im not doing a tap until new year. I'm sitting pretty tonight though as I'm with my little one while my missus is working until midnight. Might crack a couple of beers open later

Some very nice finishes there. Beautiful stuff. All the rusty gear is going through a popular phase at the minute

Not me but I've got a good mate who loves the stuff

Call at your nearest stax

I can't wait. Ready to become red raw

Take me out too please @Olican. Think everyone that opts out should receive a mug from Danny anyway:burlas:

Kettle is always on. Been busy as hell with work and the house. Should be getting face bricks up this week. As for the pics they are stuck to the public toilet door where I do most of my dogging

Woo hoo. It's an early Xmas in the Jack household. Well done to Oli and Jess for the organisation. An extra thank you to @JessThePlasterer for the private pics you sent to my inbox for christmas. I'd post them on here but they are far to raunchy for public viewing. Especially the gang bang pic

Hi mate. What diameter size are the pillars. Any pics? Burnishing isn't too hard on a pillar as the outward curve doesn't restrict your trowel movement. It is easier to do if you move vertically up and down as you trowel. Kind of in a diagonal motion so the whole of your trowel edge stays in...

A bit big for Venetian. I do use flex trowel on micro cement floors though. Quite a good tool. They are all alike but I do like my co.me flex

saw this and laughed my cock off. Go on fury

This is a poor wind up pal. Need some tact to do it properly

I fancy fury for this. He's changed phenomonly and got his act together. I'm hoping for a very fast and aggressive new man. Won't be getting though as the odds are poor for a straight result

It's not often I want to hurt someone

Wow. A personal mention. I should be worried. Only just read the post so good evening algee. Been a pants day really. Brickie cancelled on my house today due to weather. So I started trying to find the foul drain in the garden at back. All the houses surrounding mine and no one has a man hole...

Oh dear. What is there I'm company name. Should put it up so no one else buys from them. I k i.e. it doesn't help much now but it's worth researching products and companies. If you want to continue with micro cement I can personally vouch for Actris who are in the UK

I can't comment on the sealer as they are all different. But if you use a shortpile fibre roller it will be fine.

I can't remember for the life of me what they were called. For big jobs we used a twin arm large roller and squeegee with a swivel head to move the sealers about. How are you using foam. Normally most sealers that are 2 part react with foam and make it a swell up and fall off the roll. I've...

We got a job dropped 2 weeks ago for a similar thing. 3 bedrooms 're skim and living room wanted overboard ceiling and chimney breast and a complete plaster all round and board bathroom.Little bit of patching in hall. Woman who owns it has it as one of her rentals. After accepting price she rang...

Posted yesterday and at 7 pages already. Must be a record. I'm not reading through the next 6 pages so there's a good chance my comment is a duplicate. I'm with smudger on the name. We call them charge marks too. As far as the plastering goes the job is either right or it's not. If there are...

That's the same battery. Flex volt at 54volt and 9ah. You can put the batterys into 18v dewalt tools and it steps down to that voltage.

That's not a hammer loop. It's somewhere to hang your dick when it's in the way

Maybe they could use hemp plastic. Much better for the environment. It degrades much quicker. The plaster would still go out of use by date before the plastic degrades too

I agree If you like it as a sport but I'm more for eating what you catch as long as it's tasty. If I had time for a hobby it would involve the gym

Can you eat pike. I'm only into the catching and eating fish. None of the throw it back malarkey

So the fish probably aren't arses about time of year and temperature etc but other than standing out in the cold is this time of year still good for getting the rod out. There is a small chance of getting out for a day on weekend but if fish are like birds and fly South for the winter is the...

Ha ha. 2 digital and one analogue compass to make sure north is in the right place. Will be able to offer bearings and direction from now on

So it's been a bit of a process and a learning curve but I've finally finished the centre piece of the house ready for the log burner. It's a compass in micro cement and a little Venetian plaster. I created my slab from concrete and stone then made the top smooth and neat with a bit of self...

Just playing devils advocate but what happens if a plaster board becomes loose. I know it shouldn't and wouldn't happen but the same applies for tiles

I understand now. You have one of those stick on tile personal appliances and the more room space you have the longer the appliance can be fitted :LOL::LOL:

That would be 2 layers. An initial layer applied and left to dry shock provides a base and gives suction for a second layer. On the second coat the plaster is scratched back when nearly dry to get a travertine effect then trowelled some more to close in to how you want it

Hi mate. Welcome to TPF. It's hard to explain how yo achieve what your after. Vfr has nailed it on the head though really. Look at this image This would be a way to base out one of the pics you added. Creating a vertical drag with this as a base then go on top with a medium to fine grain...

Don't get me wrong. I would advise against it. Not because it doesn't work but eventually the room will get smaller and smaller. I'm always for knocking back to base and starting again

I've done it before. Was using plas prime. The green stuff. Dabbed straight onto it. Tested it on glass too. Multi straight onto the grit and it worked. Need to stick to manufacturer instructions for drying. Tho k most say 24 hours

Nice mate. Can't wait to get time to get back out again

Nice. More importantly the crate reminds me how much I love polish lager. Used to get tyskie from a shop near me. As for that Friday feeling I'm having the day off today to attend a wedding. Should be well inebriated by early afternoon :burlas::popcorn:

Quite east really. Make a box frame out if whatever you like. Metal or wood. When boarding it imaging you let a total wastercut the boards for you. Don't have the edges nice and neat. Plenty of scrim on every joint. Slap on a thick bonding coat nice and heavy. As it's drying out use brush...

I did these a few years back. Made with bonding then different stains. These that ash has done are fantastic

Terrible

I'm getting the impression you haven't plastered before mate. Which is not a problem normally but I think your biting off quite a bit. If the plaster is sound then you can apply micro cement to it and it can be a waterproof system. There is a process and it depends on the manufacturer but...

I've posted an answer on your other thread mate

Hi mate. As mentioned micro cement will do the job for walls and floors. Waterproof when finished and most suppliers offer 30 plus colours. When doing a complete wet room I've used impey system before and not had a problem. There are quite a few on the market now

So it's for one coat plastering

Never used one yet. Just nice to know and understand other methods. Nice garage though

So are.sponges for one coat or two. Seems to be a mix throughout the thread even if it's been revived from way back when. Never tried a sponge but always good to learn something

Definitely mate. Put 2 phone compasses and an analogue button compass on there to get north correct.

Walkden. I'm there today and possibly Thurs or Friday depending on a job.

of course dearest. Where you working this week. Pop round for a brew and a look if you like

I'll never tell ha ha. I've made a hearth for a double sided log burner. Finished it in micro cement and fancied a compass in the middle. The burner will be centred over it with feet raising it 100mm off the ground. I'm hoping it turns out something nice

No worries mate. You can buy 2 types. One with mesh and one without. The one without gets pinned to wall then stud frame in front and board as usual. For the one with mesh you dab boards onto it directly. Ideally the adhesive shouldn't touch the plastic plugs. If it's going to fail anywhere...
