The fact that you are a 1 man crew and doing these jobs by yourself is amazing . You are highly skilled and I can see it in your work. No wonder you are so fit! Stay strong and stay safe my friend! Cheers from Seattle Washington.
U do a rally good job on here am big supporter of u do a good job with are business is a great business u got too do now keep up there good work on here am
Your a hard working man worked in scaffolding for 20 year would take a squad of 3 to do that in 2 days never mind a man on his own to do it in 3 impressive
Dead tight! Dead tight! He is just a hard grafter and not afraid of hard sweat.and regarding a labourer well he has not got a The headache of a no show keep up with it pal love watching your vids
Biggest question I get asked - why don't you get a labourer. It can be done alone. Different trade but still hard. Each person added actually drops output apparently by degrees. Don't get me wrong occasionaly it would be good to be with someone. Especially when you hit snags but overall would'nt change it. Only came here for the boots. You still rocking the Steel Blues? I'm just going to order some I think. That season is coming........
That debris probably wouldn't do jack. Not fancy getting brickguard? Scaffolding is by far one of the most demanding jobs. 40 and feeling it big time but we just plod on. Mad respect mate. 👍
Mad respect, your obvious skilled and a hard worker 💪🛠 But i can't wrap my head around, why you dont use more technical helping aids. In denmark it's been required by law for many years, to have a crane on the bigger trucks or a forklift/telehandler on the yard aswell on site for bigger jobs. Aswell as electric wire hoist or elevator's. While erecting. Erecting the stuff is heavy and hard enough, why take that much toll on the body. Just to get gear out/up? I knows since it's your own company, there is money to be spared. On expencive aids. But still i'am curious. And again mad respect, really enjoy your vids 🫵👍🛠
Hello Shark Scaffolding, could i ask for afew tips on how to get into scaffolding industry. I live in the uk and the island i live on its impossible to get a Labourer or trainee and apprentice scaffolding job over 30 companies here and they just dont seem to be intrested in training new people who want to give scaffolding ago..
because its not cheap ,my part 1 cost me £1500 over 25yrs ago and i was local too the test center my dads part 2 cost about 4k because he had too get digs for a fortnight down bircham newton.
100 percent agree on the hard graft ethic but don’t agree about a labourer because being a scaffolder not far off 50 years old and being a hard worker myself, believe me your knees will be gone at my age especially because you’re up and down off the scaffold like a yo-yo , get a young eager willing to learn hard working labourer and you will still be flying about in years👍
I completely agree about hard work, and your trade is fascinating, but there is one reason I feel you should hire someone, and that’s to transfer your skills and knowledge to the younger generation, not only would you help with employment, you appear to be a good role model too and could help toughen our Gen Zs!!
Love your work brother , but deep down you know one day someone will slip down with no third handrail n no gable handrails, sounds soft but one day brother. Love the hard yards I respect that. God bless you 🤙🏿🛠️
Why not use some of the free time from day one or two to bring gear down to the job? Could even drag it up to the lift you needed it and still be done before five lol
Nice work man especially for 1 man! But please consider wearing your harness I work with people that have been in the game for 20-30 years they always clip on they got so many bad stories. It doesn't need to much height
its not wise hooking on when working alone because you can only dangle for about 20mins before the harness tightens up and starts cutting of circulation all over your body, better too hit the deck and bounce than hang there and die.
@@Del-Blanco-Diablo Well i agree with that, but still he could be clipping himself high enough to climb up again after fall. There is always a way. But thats all from me. Still mad respect to the fella
I know exactly what you mean, at my place I work they lend us lads gear to do our own jobs to keep us happy. I always do the jobs on my own as I find abit of a buzz out of looking at it in the end thinking bang on that just for me. Done a few big detached houses that have had me sweating 😂 feels good to achieve it on your own plus no worries about people damaging stuff or doing things wrong etc… or lads moaning it’s hard just crack on and usually have a laugh with customers 👍🏻
why dont you use system for the bulk of the job and tube n fitting for all the little add ons, it would be the smartest thing too do if you're building jobs on your own...
@@dls6237 you dont need too buy it you just hire what you need job too job but if you were buying it , second hand kwikform would prob be the cheapest option .
Fucka could deffo peel an orange in his pocket. And what’s with ledgers on base lift ? I know you’re building on your own but theirs no advantage with the ledgers on the front it’s just as easy to put them on the back.
There's no value in working by yourself when you get to 50 and your back has gone...been scaffolding 20 year and the best thing I did was get a labourer...more value in training a young lad up.
when working alone its better too hit the deck and bounce than die dangling from a harness, the paramedics can just throw u in the ambulance instaed of waiting for the fire brigade too come and cut you down.

very good job Mister Mate !!!!!
Love it mate nothing like a good old graft sound advice people should tske notes
Good work 👍on the back you should of just put the ledgers underneath instead of on top it would of saved you time and a set of boards 👍

Any tube and fit books out their my bro ?
That debris probably wouldn't do jack. Not fancy getting brickguard? Scaffolding is by far one of the most demanding jobs. 40 and feeling it big time but we just plod on. Mad respect mate. 👍
my old boy is 65 and still on the tools with no slow down in sight were as i jacked it in at 40 and took up window cleaning instead...
Undersling your corner return to save on a set of boards and your 13s would have been perfect on the back, some serious graft there mate.
Mad respect, your obvious skilled and a hard worker 💪🛠

Have you ever thought about a trailer? I’ve got an 18footer that’s good for over 2.5t. Which means you’d be able to carry close to 4t combined.

Should of gone underneath on the back mate probably got away wiv lap boards
why dont you use system for the bulk of the job and tube n fitting for all the little add ons, it would be the smartest thing too do if you're building jobs on your own...
You’ve never brought system scaffolding I’m assuming
@@dls6237 you dont need too buy it you just hire what you need job too job but if you were buying it , second hand kwikform would prob be the cheapest option .
Anyone ever use a combo of system and clamp and tube?
System for the stair access. Tube for the rest👍
Ok so you mentioned that money doesn’t motivate you but then he’s just erected a 3 lift semi on his todd 😅 man’s coke debt is thru the roof
considering your scaffold might be on a job 6months + how much gear do you hold,im guessing you run out
I have quite a lot of gear, but I do run short of quite often.
Top job mate but just wandered why no-one ever requests a pulley wheel to get tools and materials up?
Some scaffolders do you use pulley’s, but normally when it’s higher than this
5ft boards opposite way are called chinese boards
How much is a pavement license up there??
£90
Is that per week ?@@SharkScaffold
@Jackscaf no it’s for 28 days
£168.10 for 56 days in norfolk
We are getting ripped off in suffolk, paying £235 for 28 days
Get 2 pairs of electricians steps mate save moads of time when stretching and can chuck a board across
Get a labourer and slow you down more than likely.
Surprised council not ask fa treader plates
And light and double boarded base lift with monflex lol
Fair play,u must b mad lol
Fucka could deffo peel an orange in his pocket. And what’s with ledgers on base lift ? I know you’re building on your own but theirs no advantage with the ledgers on the front it’s just as easy to put them on the back.
Plan ahead train someone
Works hard
Finishes after four hours 😅😅
There's no value in working by yourself when you get to 50 and your back has gone...been scaffolding 20 year and the best thing I did was get a labourer...more value in training a young lad up.
Moaning about loading a pick up up 🤣 lucky you don’t have any Lorrie’s then you’d go home after being in the yard 🤣🤣
Hard work, but your safety is zero. Good luck in the future .Working by yourself is mad why?
I answered that in the video
when working alone its better too hit the deck and bounce than die dangling from a harness, the paramedics can just throw u in the ambulance instaed of waiting for the fire brigade too come and cut you down.
If you read a harnesses shock absorber it'll tell you its no good for 6M by the time it works plus the initial lanyard etc.
@@AnthonyWilson-in1vq yup i see ppl hooking on at base lift height and i'm like wtf ya clown
Top job and great advice nothing wrong with hard work.
