Hi all! Ive just joined and thought id pop in to say hello. Ive been a handyman builder most my life and took a few years out when the recession hit in 2008/9 here in Ireland, now I've just started up my own business again since things are picking up a bit, thou if im totally honest, things still very slow compared to the UK. One thing I've got going for me is that i get a weekly income of 208euro for my first 2 years in business from the government to help me get started. Ive also got 2500euro grant for tools,advertising, computer/laptop etc... There are some jobs out there at the moment but i thought id take a chance in setting up again seeing I'm getting help from the government.
For my tools ill have 1000euro and although ive most of my tiling tools in, ive came across the tiling tracker for setting tiles out instead of using battens. What i want to know is there anyone on here that uses this and how do they find it compared to using the tried and tested batten method.
Ive also seen a lazer level , its the Bosh gtl3 and again, can anyone give me the pros and cons of this item. Maybe i could even grab the DW088k if it was of any use for tiling though in saying that, i haven't looked into it much.
Ive done pretty well over the years without needing any of these items, but since i can get these on the grant, i might aswell get them while its free if it'll speed my work up more. I know one thing, i deserve them for the taxes I've paid in past years lol.
