My daddy has been teaching me how to use my trowel to tamp down and level sand screed. Is he teaching me correctly. If not am i best finding a new plasterer to teach me me the correct ways to become a plasterer when i am older..

Peter- Chrisjack231"s son :RpS_thumbsup:

Teach him the basics first chris,,,, you've got him on the plasic trowel already...:rolleyes)

He is a dab hand with a pointing trowel when I make him a sand castle, he tries he best to make all the loose bits look good. He also levels his whole sandpit out with his plastic trowel ready for building bricks and sand castles. I wonder if i can ask @Plasterers1StopShop to get his own little nela s*p*r*lex

We cant get gloves on him in the winter and as for knee pads, well he is a bit of a toughen my lad he seems never have a leg with out a bruise on it. Boys will be boys

i would have thought that he would have needed a hard hat, a high vis jacket and a pair of goggles ?

Never get a sheet of 8x4 in his van :RpS_biggrin:

Love the pair of eyes of the front though, might put a set in mine!

The boy is 3 in 2 weeks time so the way i see it by the time he is 16 and can go to collage he will have 13 years experience in the trade already By the time he is 7 i may put him on a weeks course to see how he fairs up to the others learning the trade :RpS_thumbup:.

Maybe some ppl are right about us, "plastering is childs play

With any luck he'll do so well in school, he'll never have to touch a trowel.
