Default video on plastering

does anyone know of a video showing basic plastering,just board finish skimming
will do,thanks



As a professional plasterer you would expect to earn a minimum of plus
100k per annum working from a home based office with very low overheads.

Rough estimate of annual pay is half the hourly x 1000. "Expect" to find
enough work for 4 months in the year at those rates. And if the low
overheads do not include a maid for ravishing/tea supplying it is not
worth it.

Most of the problem with finding customers is that all of the effort is
in preparation. Any fool can plaster a simple wall. Consider the
problems of stair wells and old houses, nitches and alcoves, property
where the occupier is a pain in the arse and poor payers.

Then there is the building site where stuff goes missing, doesn't arrive
on time or the plumber, electrician, joiner and half a dozen other
idiots have not finished their bit, nor done the job properly and by and
large you get an idea the job is not what you might have hoped for.

That's not counting your own ****-ups.
