So you are paying £200 for a glorified screed rail? If you wanted to go the rigid laying line you could of done it with some various length of straight edge timber. knock in some stakes mark your levels, then measure down from your level the thickness of the timber. Bang a nail in a little then rest your straight edge timber on the nail, your screed rail/straight edge will now be at the correct height. Now screw from the back of the stake into the straight edge to hold it in place. doing it that way you can choose the lengths you want and when you finally get pissed off with it you have some bits of timber that cost peanuts in comparison to the pissy paver.
dont forget to let us know how you get on trigger :;):

with a name like welder001 and your other posts it sounds like you have a vested interest in this product.

World of Paving will be ideal for companies launching products such as this as not only will the audience be composed of people who actually lay paving alongside those who buy or specify it, but there will be a large demo stage so manufacturers can actually show suitable (i.e. those that don't shower the audience with muck, etc.....!) products in action.
They can also hold a Toolbox talk and by a combination of the two things they will get an instant reaction from the trade and, if all have liked what they see, some orders.

I watched the video!!!
Why did they put a fat labourer on it? was he in it to say that its so easy you get fat!!
If he can sell thousands of them (to dickheads) and make loads of money I suppose id do the same.
Its a great idea using a string line and a level ill have to start using them.

When I heard of your amazing offer on the 'Piece'o'Piss Paver' I was so excited that in my haste to get to the phone to order one, I poked myself in the eye with my Pointmaster, tripped over my Bricky and fell arse over tit into my Easybarra....... which happened to have a knackered trowel handle standing upright on the ergonomically designed slab platform.
I am now in A and E where a delightful young student Doctor is 'gloving' up ready to remove the handle from where the sun don't shine.
So Tony, if I order a 'Piece'o'Piss Paver' from you could I please have a different free gift as the handle has just been successfully recovered and is steaming away in the steriliser.
Will you be doing a video or a YouTube of the 'Piece'o'Piss Paver' like those two 'Patio in a Day' operatives and their Meccano for Biffs kit?
If so thats the sort of gift I would like.
