tried the new bucket trowel today called the trowhawk as seen on you tube,used it on a couple of confined spaces stairs landing ceiling etc,much better than traditional square bucket trowel as firstly removes everything from bucket esp bits of gear thats left in bottom thats hard to get with normal bucket trowel thats square.well this ones rounded off and gets everything from bucket,used it as it shows straight out of bucket load trowel and spread.great on tight areas where handboard a pain.have seen spreads abroad use same idea loading there trowels of a brickys trowel.have used normal bucket trowel for loading trowel when doing marble work before.difference been these are larger than bucket trowels.and fil more off the trowel,think it may sell well even in the tiling side of things loading trowels gauging materials etc.labourer certainly loved it and left less in the bucket after each gauge.not bad for free when i only rang manufacturers to ask for stockist he sent me one for free even thow i was prepared to pay.certainly place for it in my tool bag and impressed with guy that sent it not many firms will do that.

true m8 but not about his skills as plasterer or tiler hes mearly showing his product and usages,sure could use for many things.how did we manage before bucket trowels lol, we used a gauger.

how much is one mate ?

guy in south east just told me he payed 12 quid. firm that make them just sent one for free never gave me the price,well made not like usuall bucket trowels and gaugers that have bit of spot weld on the back that always goes in time these have 3 rivets fixing from handle to blade.even my labourer will wont destroy this one as quick.firm based in the midlands tipton.
