I preferred the 11" tho 10 or 12 similar not arguing the point, same with London vs Canadian. One thing I always liked tho was the phenolic handle, I'd been told wood or rubber was best but once had no choice but to buy phenolic & much preferred it, never used anything but since.

🤣🤣, nice one Alex could do with a new pointing trowel 😏. . Did you use your steel toe cap to joint up them beds 🤨. It’s bad enough following another bricky but a joiner let loose with a blade no no no 😳😆🧱👍🏼

Spot on lads! I'm gonna have a play with it next week on some brickwork, if i cant get on with it, I'll send it over to you boys to have a go! Then you can tell us how you find it..and then you send it on it's way again😂🍻 yea big old joints! Turns out that 940 was the perfect hight he needs for the WallPlate to marry up with the existing gable..so I guess it was actually on purpose 👌👌😉 Hope your both well! I'll check out your new video in 5mins buddy!🍻🍻 Have a good weekend fellas!
