Hello,
As I'm new to plastering and learnt the basics at night school where we used a spot board, so I thought I'd have one myself...why not eh?
I wasn't sure what sort of wood to use and the guy at night school said it was MDF. However, I'm finding that the mix is going off quite quickly on the piece of MDF I have.
Is MDF good enough to use or is it's suction possibly causing me problems (I am damping down the board beforehand)?
BTW I've used "out of the bucket" as well but prefer the board as it can be slapped onto the hawk whilst on the step up.
Any advice welcome as usual!!
Cheers
Matt
