    I’ve been plastering for 33 years and I know a good plasterer when I see one and you are a good plasterer pal.
    All the best from Ayr, Scotland 👍🏼

    Nice work as ever mate.
    Was on a little rendering job this last week, scratching on. Going back next week to top it off. Taken a few little helpers from your channel to help me along the way. Thankyou for your effort in putting these together mate. Always a pleasure to watch and always something to learn. Every day is a school day.
    Top man. 👌

    Just catching up on the vids mate. Love job. Its not a bad job rendering when the sun is out is it. Gets you out side lol. You make good use of that power float to get you ready. Bet it saves a bit of time that 👍👍👍👍

    The serated rule is a MUST! .... Why we used Skirting boards - The edge would get nice and 'furry' making the ruling of render FAR easier - and didn't drag the water to the surface either 👍😎
