tray is customers choice. this customer lady has totaly fear of patina and dirt. so i groat the joins with epoxy in beige.

mitres are glued with akepox 2030. i mixed the color with fitting akemi color tubes. i tested integra which is available in 1000 colours but i go for epoxy because of diffrent causes.

i do a lot of jobs now with glued mitres.. its cool on stairs:

i have made a video for the stair action: https://vimeo.com/115015148

the dry cutters are not from karl dahm they are direct from my friend hubert kaufmann. http://www.kaufmann-tools.at/

the little wet cutter is a king cut. its a cheap osteuropean machine. i like it because its leightwheigt. in germany its distributet by www.prommersberger-werkzeuge.de

the long cutter is custom made with a rail and head from http://www.steintrennmaschinen-englhard.de/

the manual center i use in the video with a 45 degree cutter is from http://www.seelbach-international.com/html/maschinen.html
i think its a swedish product.

Nice film mate, Superb work on the staircase !

 

[Spud]

That is outstanding work as always Rainsco I love the steps
I have been doing some bathrooms with mitres recently but dont have the tooling you have
1200x 600 and 900 x 450 cut on site with a 115mm grinder and polished back with a hand polisher , filled one with resin the other with grout , just debating how to finish the last bathroom, how do you finish your mitres with glazed porcelain do you always sand back a 5mm bevel or do you sometimes keep them sharp?

Excellent work guys! Great to see this thread alive again [emoji106][emoji4]

nice garry,

i don´t use the miller very often. i just use it when i have lot of stairsteps and can work at home. on site i use the wet cuter (for mitre) and sand the mitres exact with a 100 grid diamond dry pad to edge and then i use a aggressive 50 grid diamond dry pad to do the rest but not to close to the edge. if i don´t glue the mitres the tile is ok out of the wet cutter. if i glue the mitres i have to sand.

i try to get porcelain with a core in colour of the glaze. if its not, i say the customer just a normal groat mitre is possilbe or on stairs we have to work with rails.

here is a projekt with glazed porcelain. i mixed the glue from akepox grey/green with a white colour paste. the core of the tile is a little bit darker so i think i bevel it very sharp.

when you look at the wet cutter. the table is more than 45 degrees. and then i sand it to edge with the grinders. its supersave and fast.

thats my site set up when i have place.. pics from the bath above are bevore sanding. i form the glue with a silicon , dont know the word in english .. former? the little rubbers.

Is that from STS by any chance John?

Love the work in that tray Gary !:hurray:
Whats happening with a screen? I usually get a standard wet room glass panel, sit it place, mark the bath edge with masking tape. Then, get the side that goes against the bath, either etched sand blasted or, a colour coded backing to match the tiles.
