My mechanic likes the joke I told him once:
To a mechanic all tools are hammers, except for chisels, which are screwdrivers.:smilewinkgrin:

Dave, I have always known a darby to be used for plastering and straightedges are used for tile work. The darbys I have seen are made of wood and shaped differently than a straightedge. Is it the same in the UK?

I suppose you could use a Darby as a straight edge.
A plasterer would use a Darby - which is angled alliminium with handles-to take off the excess plaster on large areas.
My straight edges are 50x20mm boxed alliminium from a double glazing firm - had them years - some are getting shorter:lol:
North -East wife is usually referred to as - Wor Lass.
Had a joiner friend and his wife who went on holiday abroad.
They met another English couple who they had drinks with for 4/5 days running.
On the 6th day the joiner was in the bar on his own and the new friends asked him where WALLACE was!:lol:

A darby I don't treat as straight edge as such, more off a leveler for bonding or finish.
A straight edge for sand/cement and ruling off undercoat plaster
