all this mixer shaming thats been going on for years... people were doing it last time i was on here regularly 10 years ago.... oo ive got a megamixer you must be a s**t plasterer knocking up wi that shitty evo mixer!! (evos are s**t i admit but im just making a point, ive got a sparky with a reverse spiral cullomix quick release paddle that hasnt been quick released since i first bought the thing and it aint let me down in 5 years but then i aint on it full time either)..

So take it back a few years and every plastering gang I knew were a 2+1 big fuckoff labourer, i was still a kid, me dad was a builder/joiner/civil engineer so i seen a lot of it ...
team rocks up on a job...
"HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAAAA what do you call that raleigh chainwheel plunger mate??? what a load of s**t you wanna get yourself a claude butler like ours! you can charge what the f**k you like"

Everybody seemed to have a 9" trowel too... none of this 14" marshaltown pre worn stainless even got the corners rounded off s**t...

wasnt too long ago people were flattening off with fire exit signs? the holy grail of flexible trowels...

Every plasterer should have a proper mega mixer in my opinion.there cost £350 ffs..a shortly little mixer ain't guna knock up 5 bags of adesive in a cut off water barrel.i see a plasterer get a shitty little aunt bessys mixer out of van my instant thought is amateur..

It dsnt matter if ur only desire is 1 bag at a time,its amateurish to not have a mega mixer..that's FACT

Probably part of reason why I'm not desperate to get multi and worrying about when I can get back to work, as I only buy the tools I need for the job I want to do. How much is your £350 megamixer earning you a day atm?

You're calling everyone without a £350 mixer an amateur. That's most of the people on this site

End of day it doesn’t matter what knocks the gear up, what you lay it on with , or flatten in with . All that matters is the standard of the finished article , your reputation and the dosh in the bank

how long does a shitty £60-£100 mixer last for? And it's only mixing prob 3 bags a day,bet it still burns out after couple years,mega mixers last 15 years plus and there mixing 10 bags a day

The stripes are important. They let T***s like you know what’s about to pass their wee rusty puddle jumper

The trick is to be using 3 bags a day and not ten, later down the line your body will thank you.
If you make it that far !!!!!
