I have been watching and learning from you since you started the TH-cam videos. I just wanted to say thank you for your knowledge and education. God bless you! Take care.

[@Maidthatkoolaid]

Lovely
I’m in New Zealand and found Mikes video last year what a relief to find a gentleman who has so much knowledge & experience so I don’t make rookie mistakes ❤thanku bless u Mike

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Silvas, Mike

[@atownish1488hh]

Man I've been sitting right next to you doing the same thing this gentlemen is a living legend

[@dazuk1969]

You always make it look so easy Mike, but I know that's 50 years of experience right there. Always like watching your vids Mike as you are passing on decades of experience so other people can watch how you do stuff and maybe it give it a go themselves. Much peace to ya Mike.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks dazuk, Mike

[@PaulSc0tt]

I would pay money to see Mike tackle a job where he starts off by saying, "you know what, this is a BIG DEAL!"

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Paul, Mike

[@richardbowles7690]

"No big deal" . . . . a lesson for life.

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike, Iwas just wondering where you were. 😎

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks keef, Mike

[@Traderjoe]

A rolling stone gathers no moss. You keep going Mike! That’s how you keep fitness and flexibility. As soon as you start retiring, it all starts catching up. I just kind of hurt myself helping my nephew move some furniture and man, I have been behind a desk for a few years and I was hugging and puffing and I am in worst shape than I thought. I got to use it, or lose it!

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Joe, I feel myself losing it for sure, thanks Mike

[@ZeffAU]

Yo good to see you punch out another vid mate, appreciate you sharing your craft over the years. I otherwise never would've come to learn and appreciate anything about masonry

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Zeff,, Mike

[@ciwwebmaster]

Mike you are a wonder. I have taken inspiration from every video that I have seen. I have tackled several masonry jobs around my house and property based on your advice, "no big deal". Just do it. I said to myself. Thanks Bro you just don't ever know how important you can be to another person. God Bless!

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks clw, I appreciate hearing that, Mike

[@chrisortiz8072]

I'd prefer to just hire Mike lol

[@nicholasadams4198]

Use wad nails to attach lath. It holds the mesh about 3/16 away from the paper. That way the stucco goes around the mesh, to form a mechanical bond. And use metal screed all along the bottom. It will allow for proper drainage. Without it, the top coat along the lower area will peel off eventually.

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Richard, I never had a problem, but I believe you, thanks mike

[@julietphillips1991]

Hi Mike! It's always a good video! I'm tempted to say stucco is a lot of work...truth is everything is a lot of work, especially if you are going to do it right. Concrete needs patience and a certain amount of back and forth. You always give helpful instructions so we can diy and feel good about it. Thanks Mike , always enjoy your videos!

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks, I appreciate it, Mike

Recently moved from Oregon to Denver to get into the trade primarily a hod carrier but sometimes allowed on repair jobs & tuckpointing, some of the multi million dollar Voctorian homes here are mind blowing, glad to have your channel to go alonside my job to really help me learn.

thx mike! your an art-teast! from what i see and being schooled from MHSOHK's it's under a porch protected from sun rain weather and such. using screen in my opinion from learning from you. will be out of the moisture and not getting wet directly so should last longer look new for years to come and so should the paint job

[@MikeHaduck]

Thanks Dan, Mike

[@markhelms2287]

Hi Mike. Good video. So you're in Florida now have you witnessed how DR Horton does stucco? I live in a DR Horton development and coming from Indiana, I'm still adapting to the construction techniques down here. The exterior walls are concrete block of course. They do NOT wet them at all when they put the brown coat on and they immediately follow with the texture. The texture guys use a hawk and rake the mix off the hawk with the backside of their trowel and splatter it on the walls. They then knock the texture down with their flat trowel. Within a month it's painted!

[@MikeHaduck]

Hi Mark, I been watching them, I am going to do a video on it eventually, thanks Mike

Hi jom, a lot depends on how much it gets wet, and where it is but it I would say we'll in most cases, thanks Mike

The wire lath was not installed correctly you shouldn't run it vertical it would not pass inspection in Florida and you should only nail on the studs and a real Plasterer uses a hawk and trowel and that texture is for unskilled workers who can't lay it down correctly and also if you take that long the do a job yu will never keep up with any kind of schedule but for homeowner doing it your self it will work but this will not pass inspection
