Aye, that's good alright. Well my good skimming trowel has a bend at the toe so digs in at the top now so it's f**k*d, so had to promote my other trowel,though I've used it skimming for a while, although the now broke one was very sharp, left a lovely finish. Almost a flexi finish, but flatter lol. Want to try the nela so hopefully I will like it.
Hope your bearing up mate? I'm having a s**t time after splitting with Mrs Marshy staying at a mates in meantime. I've lost everything but still trying to stay positive. Chin up pal and hope your fit and well asap
I'm hanging in there, had some nasty anxiety and depression though apparently it's all part of the recovery and quite common in stroke survivors completely exhausted all the time aswell which the doctors call post stroke fatigue, basically I'm recovering from brain damage so it's fairly unpleasant but like you say it's important to try and stay positive and look to the future I look at my kids and it motivates me to get better, please look after yourself marshy and take it easy.
Thanks Danny, sorry to hear you were so unwell but also reassuring to know you made a decent recovery thank youI had years of that... those that met me just after I was ill @irish_spread @Nisus @warriorupnorth and @Runswithscissors can probably vouch for the complete mess I was in. Anxiety was horrific and I struggled with everything, I would not leave the house on my own I didnt drive for 2 years as I was petrified I had a complete melt down all part of the recovery!!
It gets easier and if you want any help or advice on how to deal with anxiety and panic attacks then I am more than happy to help just drop me a pm
Glad you are on the mend
I use a 16" permashape gold preworn stainless steel mt
Nella.s are good once there broke in you just cant give up hope . They get there eventually
I dont know that I would buy a permashape again to be fair. I had one but broke it about 5 or 6years ago. I did like it, but since had been using gold xtralite and now normal xtralite, and its as good as any I've hadHey I honestly don’t mind anyone disagreeing it’s my own personal opinion, I gave away 10 of them , the steel is definitely different to how it was even 10 years ago and I would never buy one again but I fully respect others views end of the day we should be able to get a decent finish with any trowel
The ones I had were stainless. Gold blade, black handle. I had a 14 x 4.75 one and a 13x5 one. Tje 14 one was the best skimming trowel I have owned, its the one the toe got bent, some one must have sets something on top of it. It was well wore in, lovely shape, lovely and sharp.
Just when bonus ball finished lol
