That’s actually a decent go 😂

I enjoyed your video. I did the walk today, 23 July 2024 and the weather couldn't have been more different, sunny no wind and no rain, a beautiful day!

Well done, looks amazing. Would be interesting to know whether it was worth it financially.

Better then most fellas on Site 😂

Really good for first attempt, well done

Nice work

flipping heck, that's really good for a first time. I'd love to have a go at plastering. I might setup a little stud wall and give it a go. It looks soooo satisfying

Best thing is sweetheart save your time and effort and pay someone to do it right

Ultimate respect, a thousand times better than my first attempt!.. my brother made me watch him for far too long. get stuck in, learn from your mistakes, drop a load on the floor, and move forwards..:) you are an inspiration..:)

Well done, I think you did really well for your first go. You did really well anyway. I'm a plasterer.

Art of plastering is buying the best tools , marshaltown trowel 13” . I’ve plastered for 30 years but still hate the start . I do like the finishing touches. All the best. Tip . Buy a water bottle and spray the finish as it’s much better.

It tests the muscles and the mind.

Well done, keep watching and keep trying, above all keep everything neat and tidy. ;👍👍

Well done hen

Hi, what were your timing estimates. For example, after your 1st coat how long did you wait before your next step 20, 30 min? And what steps did you do, for example 1st coat, 1st trowel 2nd coat etc

good job fun video

Good luck with your project. Looking forward to the progress videos 😁

How exciting, a lot of hard work coming up!

Pretty decent. Great first attempt 😊

I did a 4 day plastering course where i made lots of mistakes...i have now done lots and lots of plastering...the more you do the easier it gets...i think you did a good job considering you had no experience.

Well done! I always thought it's best to do woodworking outdoors. I only managed to do 3 as they were so heavy with glass panel to lug outdoors. No excuses for me to procastinate now. 😅 Where do you purchase your blue outfit/jumpsuit from? Thanks.

The door looks good, well done!

I am really impressed, that was quite a big area to try and plaster for your first attempt and I personally think you did a fantastic job , just a little note and it's not a criticism in any way , the easifill 60 you used to fill out your joints can be used for fine filling any imperfections afterwards. I work on site as a plaster patcher and even the best plasterers still get imperfections, it's the nature of plastering , but we'll done I'm really impressed 👍

Done better than me. Most of my plaster ended up on me and my floor. All credit to you. Well done

From someone who has been learning plastering for a few years now and plans to go self employed next year, you did very well for your first attempt! I'm sure it will paint up nicely 👍

For a first attempt that was bluddy good. But your bravery to tackle something like Plasteirng by watching just RUclips videos is even more impressive.

Very brave for giving it a go. Yes 😊

That’s an amazing first attempt. Well done! You should feel proud! And Blaine Grey is awesome. Also Kirk Johnstone (On the Trowel), and Alex Morley.

👍

With no training and your first attempt I think you’ve done a good job, first coat was probably a bit to thick as other people commenting have noticed…. But well done. I’ve done the 5 day course at the local college which is ok and teaches you the basics for skimming. But after that you just have to keep practicing and learning, I too watch Blaine on his plastering channel and it’s helpful, I’ve watched for hours. Another good channel is ‘on the trowel’ with Kirk, check that out too, all the best keep it up

I am also an amateur at plastering, but have plastered 5-6 walls already. I was way worse than you at the start... One thing I noticed - your plaster was mixed way too thick, you shouldn't need much force to apply it to the wall. I am surprised you did such a good job nonetheless - seems like you have the talent for this.

On The Trowel guy called kirk his the best plastering guy in the word his the best honestly i dont think your find better , oh and well done too you

I too learnt from watching Blain's channel. Congrats on doing your first wall and well done - that looks great on here. The only thing I would ad to your tool set (and this is personal, so it may not help), but I found the marshalltown squeegee helpful as I was frequently going back over the existing bits I'd plastered and kept on messing them up. That tool helped me get the plaster on and flat before it started setting, improving the end result no end. Forget the speed skims, unless you've got a particularly uneven wall that you are flattening Well done - you can come and fix mine ;)

well done mate! it is always worth giving DIY a go first, unless it is electrics or gas works

Greetings from Australia Kay...I think you did a great job and good on you for giving it a go.Happy Xmas to you.

congrats for taking that task on, good result

That was a much better effort than my first try. I think my mix was far too dry so I had to call the professionals in. Since then I've got much better but I still find it tricky...and messy lol

That crack needs to be looked by a structural engineer, to determine if caused by subsidence. You need looks outside the see if there are any cracks outside on the same location as inside. Hope this helps.

Good job and good luck with the channel. It's good when you have family in a trade !!

👍👍

Good job, I've had to this in my son's bedroom too. Nice repair!

Greetings from Poland ! Keep going !!!
