Just seen a washboy kit on Rambo tools for £40. A washboy, few trowels, float EC. Anyone know what the quality will be like or is this an unknown source?

That is indeed the one, yes! Just wondering if the quality of the tools is good enough for trade use.

That seems a really good price I can't see a problem with it. Go for it. Trowels don't look bad either. Theyre normally a small fortune washboys are.

Looks like a good deal but don't want to pick up the washboy and the handle falls off, or the trowels to be rusting after a fortnight. Might take a chance...

 

[Dan]

Just roll it when full. And use the trowels a lot and they won't rust. To be fair those trowels look like 90% of other trowels.

Karl Dahm was the king of Washboys in my time. How much are they these days?

 

[Dan]

Does it even have a handle I can't see one lol

@Pro Tiler Tools what are you guys doing Washboys for?

I paid £50 from Tradetiler many years ago, did look and it's about £65 now.

they're based in northern ireland, they also sell on ebay, I've bought some tools .mainly marshalltown grout floats. usually well priced. that kit "is what it is" cheap and cheerful, and won't last a life time
