Right, on all the training courses I have been on it is board and whilst still wet adhesive pin back. The theory being that the pins (fixings) will pull the board back tight whilst the adhesive is wet.
But if the wall is a bit on the wonky side the boards will follow the shape of the wall? Not ideal imo.
I have been watching quite a few you tube video's mostly what seem to be German and it looks like they dot and dab the boards to plumb and true and the boards are nice and flat to one another with little rasping required then they drill and pin. It makes sense to me except the adhesive will have set or at least be green and the hammer action could disturb the adhesive on the substrate.
So what do you lads think? I am tempted to do the German way on a out of true wall.
