:RpS_biggrin:

Some will still say they do it even on £2 £2.25 a mtr.all heroes.

Tried it and can't see the point as the walls are flat anyway.if you're a rough **** then maybe it helps.

All these super spreads who say they earn well over a grand on site work are just pushing prices down because once you start booking wages in like that the main contractor says **** that I'm not paying that hence the lower price on the next job with the excuse I've had to go in tight on this...

Great city.worked all around Berlin in the 90`s and had some good weekends in Berlin.

They cost money.remember the gaffers are only taking these jobs on to keep us in work there's no money in the job.

Load of b*ll***s speedskim is so unnecessary you get the wall flat enough with your trowel.

You must be mentally r******d.

I know.it's a bit overwhelming really.

Didn't think you did.:rolleyes)just making work for yourself.

Horrible shite.used it a lot in the 80`s and it actually finished one lad by destroying his hands.

Never done 3 hits.no need.

No they don't .in my opinion

It is I was on that in 98 and I am still on that now.found an old invoice the other day and was on £3m2 skim only.what pisses me off is that when the times were good they didn't go to £4 so when the recession hit they could have put it back to £3.£120 is actually a good rate on site because...
