Spot board

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

No, I did a six week course so live within my means

I understand, I am pleased for you that it works but maybe you should try and branch out, you know another string to your bow

 

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

Ask some one, you are not near Kent are you?

Like the last post I'd like too but it's hard no one wants to teach the competition

I am very far from Kent unfortunately bud

 

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

A real spread will teach you but will probably only give you improvers money rather than top dollar but then again it is an investment on both sides. You could work with us but I think you are to far away we are in kent

 

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

Sorry just clocked your reply

Oh that is disgusting what’s happening to all the solid walls? There is always room for a board and stand even if it only holds a bag of finish, tell them you need room for one if you want to but if everything has worked out for you so far then I am happy for you but I know we couldn’t work without one in fact we have three stands and four different sized boards but then we are greedy

He hasn't been asked to float any walls because he's a joiner.

Cheers but still appreciate the sentiment but a fair old commute

 

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

You are welcome, there will be others near you

Joiner is a lovely clean trade , been working with one and he is as clean when he leaves as when he gets there...I look like s**t by the end of the day

Bet he doesn’t clean his s**t up and uses your hop up to butcher his wood

Well I suppose there is a first for everything. My old man was a chippy and he didnt if he worked at my house

I've never been able to get my head around people not using a board and stand whenever possible.
I also can't understand why anyone would want to mix up three bags of finish in one go unless in a good sized gang. I'd much rather keep having fresh gear to use. Maximum of a bag at a time, usually 10lts of water mixed to how we like it.

I have to agree with you on that Andy, I don’t understand how you can not use a board and stand, keep bending down to scrape a bucket would hurt just as much as screeding which as you now know I wear gloves for. Hangs head in shame. I only have two bags on the board when the youngster is with me then it’s one at a time after them

I have to grip to hard, I use wooden handled trowels and the handles tend to get covered in s**t for me with gloves

 

[Mouldyoldspudgun]

Though I do wear marigolds for sponging up in winter

 

[Num1spread]

I'd commute every day from Donegal just for the chance to work with @Mouldyoldspudgun for a fiver an hour, but he won't offer me.
