How many trowels do you need.

[Bond]

Had a bit of a sort out and realised what a diverse bunch of trowels l need to cover the work that l do, (basically all trowel trades). The oldest goes back to the early seventies, before l discovered Marshalltown. What are your trowels like?

Lovely. Collection. I have built up over years and inherited. I will post a pic

This is the lot I took out of the van because I wasn’t using them often enough. A couple of bonding towels and a scarifier in there too. Covered in crap and will be stored in the shed never to see the light of day again I expect 😀

Do I notice a Tyzack gauger?

How many of us still use a round notch?.... I haven't used one for about 5 years I reckon.

“How many trowels do you need”

Not as many as you.

Aye the gauges is like an old friend and used almost every working day, even if it’s just cleaning the inside of a bucket.

I had a lovely little marshaltown pointing trowel, used it one day on one job and then it disappeared. Last seen in my drivers side door card. Reverted back to using a hosepipe. Proper lash up 😀

Although I am a recent convert to a Marshall Town Permaflex, bloody amazing!

It’s so tempting to put a mirror finish on someone’s ceiling.

Anyone tried out the speed skim yet?

I like them.
