Got to love a good old trowel clean up 👍🏻
Can’t wait to see how Rodian’s trowels come up 🤙🏼🧱👍🏽
Don’t forget to rub in a bit of oil to stop the rust coming back 👍🏻

Top job. Funny I use WD on saw blades but never thought on trowels. Please keep looking after Rodian for us all.
Will so John ☺️☺️🧱👍🏽
Nice one lads.very informative.i usually rub my trowel with emery paper just to bring it up abit shinier now and again.i keep an old bit of rag in my tool bag to dry my trowel and jointer etc to stop rust👍👍take it easy lads....heatwave coming.
Cheers Dave , we are ready . Me and Chris my wife are in Alton towers for our anniversary😎🎢🙌🏽
Have a great time Steve.all the best to you both😀🥂🍰
@@davebarrow2194 . We did 😁🧱👍🏽
when you get the WD40 out to put on the trowel - throw some on them gate hinges whilst ya at it :)
Absolutely not ! good security , we can hear whenever someone comes through it 👍🏽🧱
@@SteveAndAlexBuild Ha that's the sort of reply my dad would say too :)
@@mattsan70 😏😉🧱👍🏽
You would never let your OX get in a mess Steve ✊

I would keep a piece of thermalite in my workbag and rub the trowel down with it and a bit of sand and water at the end of a shift. Finished off with a dry rag and a drop of linseed oil on the plain wooden handle of my Marshaltown. I was schooled in tool care by a 60 year-old bricky back when Work Hard & Starve meant something else!
He carried a small bottle of linseed oil in his workbag specifically to upkeep his wooden plumb-level, the type with a line and a bob-weight built-in.
Nice 🧱👍🏽
Nice one Steve I always fancied the one with the handle wrapped. Watch them bloody windows with the grinder she will have you😂😂😂😜👍
🤣🤣 I got some serious grief for that but I got them all clean so I'm back in the good books 😘😂🧱🤣
@@SteveAndAlexBuild 😂😂😂😂👍👍👍

The leather handle ones mark ? They look nice but They can be troublesome I’d steer clear .

That Philadelphia one ,is that the cork handle one rodian had Steve . Nice job . I must get one of those Grinder wheels.
I think it is pal , looking forward to giving it a go 🧱👍🏽
steve alex..you ever done thin joint blockwork, were you use a sweet scoop type of tool instead of a trowel..the whole innerleaf goes up first and each block is 4x the size of a traditional, when blockwork is complete the lid goes on and the other trades start on the inside whilst you start on the outerleaf with brick and mortar. just another way to get the houses completed quicker ,like timber frame or pods.
I’ve seen Rob songer doing something similar 🧱👍🏽

many thanks 🧱👍🏽
I use my mirka sander on mine to bring them back to life going higher grit to get a finer polish on
🤙🏼🧱👍🏽
Got to admit, I have always been crap at keeping my trowels properly clean. I usually end up doing the whole lot together with a sander every few weeks! Lazy twat that I am 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🧱👍🏽
Pucker,I just chuck them in vinegar for a couple of days and it falls of, it blackens them but that soon goes after use.
Now that’s a nice easy way to do it 😁🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild 😉
Try a sandpaper flappy wheel on the grinder.
🧱👍🏽
W Rose the way forward for a light trowel.
Oh no Rodian gave us one abs it’s a pig 🐷 😩🧱👍🏽
I see nearly new w.rose trowels on eBay U.K. fairly often and it’s usually the same auld yarn as to why they are selling them .can’t get on with them. if you message them as to the specifics it’s usually a gammy handle angle is the problem ( Mostly to high ) . That one Steve got of rodian just needs the handle angle adjusted downwards and it will be a rolls Royce of a trowel . The metal used in the rose trowels is American manufactured steel way better than the metal in the Ox , or m.t . ua-cam.com/video/NLX9fdb7D5s/v-deo.html there the new bon keystone forged trowels manufactured in Philadelphia. They look the biz.

Yeah buy them from Speedcrete mate. Last 1 got direct from Kraft tools via speedcrete. Philadelphia wide heel. They didn’t advertise the proform handle in even in digital Kraft online book. But contact and they put 1 on no problems. Thing is W Rose are well priced. £37-£45 bucks unless you use Amazon or that may pay £60 range. Speedcrete best to use as they deal direct with Kraft tools. Think most just go with what’s easy to access and that’s your marshaltown there 10 a pennie in tool place or merchants.
Hello mate what do you mean by the steel being pitted ?🤔 and do you think it'd a bad idea to clean a mixer with brick acid 🤔😅 nice vid mate 👍👌
Pitting is when the rust sets in and eats into the steel so when it’s cleaned off you end up with tiny pits .
As for the mixer if it’s bad knock out the worst build up then Chuck a bag of 10 mm limestone and water and let it run for a good 40 mins and it will polish it up a treat .
As for acid once on steel it’s very aggressive and you can see the rust actually forming as you look at it . Avoid it 🧱👍🏽
@@SteveAndAlexBuild ok mate thanks alot for that I'll bair that in mind 👍 I try too ceep it a clean as I can👌 alot of brickies I know just beat the f*** out of it with a hammer when it gets really bad 👎🤣 what it you oil it after the asid has been on it 🤔
Or if you only have a drill. Use it with a wire brush attachment. works good
🤙🏼🧱👍🏽
marshaltown philly 10inch , best trowel ever.
Nice 🧱👍🏽
Should have gone with double bicep after the archer then a lat spread nice job on the trowel though 🤣
