buckets

[NPS]

Anyone use a trolley for their 3 or more bag mixes? Come across one I thought would be great for sticking, u could have your bucket right upto the walls to dab then kick it out of the way to stick. Heavy Duty Drum Dolly 3 Swivel Castors Pp13376tick Clearance.

the link doesnt work but i found these Universal Multi-Grip Snow Socks - Clearance from BiGDUG UK worth putting it the boot

Andy havebyou used the locusrite skim beads? I didnt like them

Yeah I've used them Steve, although they're nice and rigid they allowed a bit to much thickness for my liking.

Hey Pricey, is john calling you a moron called shirley?

think hes making words up to make himself look clever or I am thick.

Ive had my skim buckets for 8 years cant believe how long they are lasting, do those refina buckets justify
their money? cos i'd really like a two bag one but cant bring myself to pay the money.

8 years???!!!!!! b-jeez!! I smash buckets as soon as I look at them half the time, am forever mixing on top of a forgotten screw chillin out on my tarpaulin and then pop!

You'd think I would just learn

Does any one use a spot board n e more or is this just me

 

[wiganlad]

Drives me insane scooping out the bucket. Can have a hawk ful and be at the wall using it by the time I've filled my board up out a bucket

youd be better off using a handboard

you dnt use either cos of your wankers cramp:RpS_wink:

Andy I thought the locus rite beads were too flimsy.

I used to use a spot board pretty much every day until I started doing the insurance work. Normally 1 Ceiling everyday with a lab so no point in getting a spot out and I got out of the habit

 

[user__removed]

gonna get some castors and weld em to my spot stand so my spot is always beside me:RpS_thumbsup:

 

[Jace]

i use a board where ever possible but its not always feesable to take up loads of space with a board

 

[wiganlad]

never heard ov a ligga board . but hey ho

 

[lizard821000]

might use a board for lots of hardwall etc, never skim, not needed, just another thing to get dirty and clean imo.

 

[carlos]

I use 1 depending on the job. For small ceilings they just get in the way, although I do prefer using 1 though.

 

[wiganlad]

so u have to empty ur bucket b4 your lab mcan mix another.

 

[carlos]

I think most of us have more than 1 bucket

 

[beddy]

i do. i have two!! see post #1 for details

 

[wiganlad]

just seems a pain in the arse thats all. Infact whenwn ive bern on jobs with other spreads that mix up 2 bags in one bucket N scoop straight out. Im dun b4 them n thats only mixing a bag at a time n tiping it ob a spot. And they actualy spreading at a similar speed.

I reckon working out of a bucket is alot cleaner

 

[essexandy]

How do you figure that mate?

 

[wiganlad]

I reckon ur just being controversial dave in the hope to spark a heated debate ha

 

[wiganlad]

I'm guessing ur a spot and stand man Andy .

 

[wiganlad]

And float n set also I think

 

[carlos]

Float and set + spot and stand all the way

 

[spunky]

By the time you splash water on it, scrape the edges lose a bit over the side compared to loading up a hawk working out of a buckets its Cleaner, im not trying to start a debate its just how it is

 

[Arti]

scratch and sniff all day long...............:RpS_thumbup:

 

[beddy]

Spot and stand is quicker imo. Not always practical though

Well dave it wud ov been more fun if u did start a debate . Lol

 

[spunky]

I one coat what do you do lol

 

[wiganlad]

Prefer to sponge float miself

 

[wiganlad]

And I skim right to left and I'm right handed ha

 

[bubbles65]

Since BG introduced the plastic liner I just add water to the bag and then squeeze it like toothpaste onto the walls..................no mess or anything honest :RpS_thumbup:

I fire it on with a tyro gun less hassle and easier to use than any pft device.
