i was told not to mention trowhawks. I'd like to try one but i hav'nt done a course. Any tips on
using them? Are they difficult to master?

Did you put carpet tracks down first? may be thats why its slipping ;D
 
I keep meaning to get one of them for a bucket trowel, but allways forget to order one.

I could do it now but I'm off to watch the new Jimmy carr DVD, and I'll have forgot again later.

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 trowel 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.

[/quote]You are entitled to your opinion same as everyone else its not a gimmick as you say what do you think i started plastering last week i dont think so i have 25 years plastering also qualifcations to prove it but thats not the point i used a square hawk for many years then i thought of something else but each to there own as they say the proof of the pudding is in the eating and we will see what happens in the future with the trowhawk yesterday is the past like a lot of the stalwarts remain there but the futures full of bright ideas and we have to move with the times .
 
This thread should be changed to my bucket trowel is nobody else sick of hearing about this .what a load of b*ll***s
