Up until now I've held back from the discusions on your "invention" Jim, but now you ask, no I haven't used one and I don't need to use one to see that they are less useful to a spread than a nice square ended bucket trowel (not that I use one of those very often either). Even after 28years of plastering I'm still open to new ideas and tools so don't have a mental block as some (my old man) would have regarding new ways, but having used a bucket trowels to load my hawk in rooms to small for a spot board on odd occasions and having watched your own video clips there is no doubt in my mind whatsoever that using a trowhawk is one of the most gimmicky, slow, wanky ways to work that I can imagine. But I honesty wish you all the best as it's always nice to see people get on.
Well you shouldnt have to wait to long.irish_spread said:cant wait to see a skimmer trying to render a house with one of them ;D ;D ;D
