I had some angle beads delivered today and they are much wider than the normal expamet skim thin coat ones. I have never seen them before, but they are about 35mm wide instead of 20mm.

I think they will make life easier in two situations:-

Double boarded walls make normal anglebeads hard to screw in. These new ones would be a piece of cake.

With difficult walls and beams, the new ones would allow you to drill and plug if necessary because the holes would be further from the edge.

Anyone else looking for an easy way out like me?

Sorry, should be on the plastering forum. Mods.... help....
No problem. We read all posts (eventually) but if you need a post moving or editing just use the alert mods button and the forum sends us all an electric shock (it's true we're all prisoners here in mod central send help. Sssh he's coming!!) :wink:

It is. Do NOT press it in any of your own posts or they will shift your post 'poste haste' (that means quick, fast, pronto!) :lol: :lol:
