G'day


Hi im a 25 year old guy from australia recently started my own flush and cornice(drywall) business after working in partnership for some years. I am trying to build up my toolbox and was recently outbid by a dollar for some tapetech 7'' boxes on ebay.Grr. Does anyone know how to get hold of cheap or secondhand equipment? Troweling by hand is too slow and i cant make the real dollars

Re: G'day


Why are you looking for cheap tools, this is what makes your work easier and better. Buying cheap gives you the same results. Purchase quality........The tools in your tool box reflect the longivity of your existence Purchasing used, is a good why to start but stay away from the deal that is to good to be true, likely the tools came from someone you knows truck or job site....Hey 71 like the snow yesterday....
