    just wish jobs would get better northenlite,,,,the poles have damaged the trade,,,,back in 2006 companys where throwing money at plasterers,,,as it was a dying trade no youngters wanted to do it,,,iam with a company where they employ 70 plasterers 2thirds are poles,,some are good other half of there squad is shit,,,one year spent a whole year snagging behind them

     

    what I hate about my company ,,, 4 apprentices on trot ,,are award winners there quick to jump on and take photos for papers and arverticing purposes,,apperentices get £100 pound bonus for winning comps,,which is good off them ,,,but what about there jorney man I get feck all,,,hahahaha

     

    old school plasterers said to me depends on apprentice,,,i say bollocks,,,get them troweling ,,,theres no standing about way me lol u coat same as me don't care if its there 1st day lol they get a lot of homers soon as they start winning comps ,,more than me lol

    Lol like spraying sto level coat great stuff to work with dont think its a case of feeling the pace lol can spray 2or3 times the amount more to the amount you can hand apply and not so much labour involved sprayed hardwall as well inside done a few schools inside and hospitals

     

     

    sorry never read it right on phone lastnight ,,,yeah sto level coat great stuff could spray all year long with that stuff,,,,,i meant u can spray sto finish coat but I find hand applying is quicker there ,,,,I mainly now just do the scrim and base coat sytems,,,,boardings good if u get the area,,,,,i use to make good money on dot dabbing plasterboard,,i mind getting payed £16 a board no sockets to cut out just pull cables threw ,,me and mate putting 10 an hour on ,,without even trying ,,,£80 pound an hour each ,,12week job but we finished it in 6 weeks and we slowed up as we didn't want to make too much as company would change targets,,,lol,,,another good money maker for us was floor sreeds with machine,,but nowadays they have companys that get contracted in to do them

     

    on a job the now were joiners are strapping and sheeting stair case,and its slow going,,,,they would be quicker dot dabbing even 2coat plaster work would be quicker at speed there going,,,but proplem I find,,,young lads coming threw ,,,arnt that good at floating out browning or hardwall or dot dab,,,they are too rough as theres less torance on inside work,,,there skill is just not there ,,I think anyhow and from what ive seen

  17. Beddy Greyhound A Good Cross To Go With A Beddy Whippet?

    Im in west yorks thou if I can find a good grafter and the right dog I'd be prepared to travel.

     

    As I said in earlier posts lost my young bitch last year who was my first. Currently running the dam to her, my brother bitxh and looking to get another pup from her. Through the time I put in I have learnt a lot, tho imagine lots more to learn. I have had some good feedback from this post bit struggled with others when trying to find a grafter. I'd mentioned blue in earlier post which didnt seem to go down well with many of folk on here. Colour doesn't make a difference to the dog and as I'd said before if it was a mixed colour litter I wouldn't choose a blue cos of colour I'd be looking at their character size and strength first. Reason for blue was my old bitch photos in my gallery.

     

    If you have a good grafting dog that's available for stud if be interested to know more!
