Stucco corner or arch aid

[@luke-bookbear]

Kirk is a pro, he's dedicated and takes pride in his work. I like how he goes into detail and thoroughly explains things. His stories (recalling old jobs and things people said) are very helpful too.

[@StuccoPlastering]

Luke, use the force, recalling the past is just rambling as I can do this stuff easily. I have to occupy my own mind. cheers🍾

[@luke-bookbear]

@@StuccoPlastering Everything I've heard you say (including recalling the past and rambling) has helped me. It's part of the reason I watch your videos. I used to work for a pay check only (which is ok I guess, maybe) and I didn't really have any interest at all in what I was doing (turned by my brain off at work and hoped the hours would pass quickly) but after a while I really wanted to understand what I was doing. Started taking notes and looking into things even when I wasn't working. Nowadays I take pride in my work and like understanding the trade.

[@StuccoPlastering]

Evening Luke, man, your comment is working. It makes the time we take out to film and post wroth it. Thank you, brother.🍾

[@thebodgingbigfoot4014]

Been binge watching this channel learning stucco. This is absolutely an amazing group of craftsmen. Stucco is definitely its own beast and I love that im able with my masonry background to learn aswell as understand whats going on. Gonna keep bing watching but its time to climb scaffolding and get to work lol

[@benchavis1624]

You are a true artist. I always enjoy your work and have shared your videos with my friends. They also consider you a great teacher.

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy Ben, thank you, brother.🍻

[@fatonprishtina3251]

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy Faton, its actually the 5th or 6th as were showing how to stucco a complete home and all the different aspects of it. Type into our channel words like how to stucco a wall, we do have close to a thsand of these video's no doubt there are hundred of stucco applications you will like better, Cheers.🍻

[@clintprice2123]

So much preparation but it’s so worth it when it’s all done!

[@StuccoPlastering]

Evening Clint, there's a lot to stucco, but these exterior surfaces last forever.🍻

[@talon0863]

Thanks guys, every day is a school day

[@StuccoPlastering]

Talon my friend, this advanced knowledge is for those young plasterers who want to keep earning dough and not go back and have to re-do their work on their own time and for free. 🍻

[@froter1]

Good stuff as usual Kirk 👍💕

[@StuccoPlastering]

Thank you kindly

[@dosiodosev740]

You are soo pro, detailed, thank you

[@StuccoPlastering]

Hey Dosio, thank you, it's my job, can't have someone screw something up, then blame Ole Kirk, We offer sound advise, no matter how much nonsense I may ramble about. 😏

[@45south]

Great work Kirk, love your vids

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy sunshine thank you, my friend.🍾

[@45south]

@@StuccoPlastering Ive been a subscriber for years because I've got a 1930's grey block pebble dashed disaster that I've been trying to repair and continue the dash onto the various claddings that owners have added over the years! Your vids have been enormously helpful

[@StuccoPlastering]

@@45south Cool beans, daddieo, regular dash finishes are easy. But when they have seashells like abalone or colored glass it can be a nightmare finding the exact same aggregates. In fact I tried a few times but could find the right shells. Good luck, check rock quarries.

[@danielbalboa4537]

Let them find out the hard way ...what do you know ..sht loads of experience...hats of to you sir great work great videos...I watch every day

Good evening Dan, thank you.😉

[@slotzoffuntrue]

Never a worse time when you realize someone put the lath on upsidedown, lol. Excellent video! These have really helped supplement my schooling, thanks!

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy fun dude, man, that's the point to putting these out there, cheers my new plasterering friend. 🧞‍♂

[@19993gt]

Back at it again master plaster! 🍺 happy friday sir

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy numbers dude, thank you, indeed it is a pretty cool Friday, alright😉

[@19993gt]

@@StuccoPlastering ayee numbers dude! I’ll put that on a tee shirt… seems like a title I wouldn’t mind holding.. I’m just the numbers dude…. Lol don’t mind me why the lath is upside down… I’m just the numbers dude… lol

[@bluesprucepaintingfinefini6644]

Hi Kirk, I've been watching alot of your video. Thanks for all the great information on interior plaster work.. Question, what is the A frame scaffolding you use, or are they even available anymore?

[@StuccoPlastering]

Of course they are google them or plastering yards near me to purchase.

[@Entertainment_Station_ES]

Got a plastering question that isn't really related to the video, just a general question. I have to do a lot of drywall patches in my rental properties. Because of the knockdown texture that is ubiquitous where I live, it doesn't make any sense to use tape and float far out the way drywall people do. You want to stay flush to the wall and try to match the texture. That got me thinking about using plaster to fill holes rather than mud and tape. It seems with plaster you don't need tape and you can stay tight to the wall. Question is, what do you think would be the best plaster for this application? Structo-lite maybe?

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy Edge of sanity, I would use a joint compound, either easy sand or whatever they have available. a 20-minute joint compound. Type in "how to match an interior knowdown dash finish." I have a video of how it's done.🍾

[@Entertainment_Station_ES]

@@StuccoPlastering Okay. You don't think tape would be needed with a 20 minute?

[@DavidHernandez-jf9gq]

I have 25 years of experience in the lath, how are you going to put the corners with the pistol and less the bows, very badly

[@StuccoPlastering]

Unfortunately I have almost twice that time, I've never had a problem, but some of us are kinda blessed with an abundance of talent. If I could I give you some of that extra stuff as It falls out my pockets when I walk.😏

[@stevie12]

nice

[@StuccoPlastering]

Thanks

[@jaimewilson1011]

Good work Kirk in England we would set them with our render and start shaping from there

[@StuccoPlastering]

Howdy Jaime, my fellow plasterer from the UK, man, that's just too much work. Although I have had to do that before.🧞‍♂

Yall don't use a string to get the corner straight?
