    Sigma Jolly edge anyone have one?

    I was just wondering if anyone has the sigma jolly edge, or used one? I brought one around a year ago. It worked very well for about 7 mitres on a 60/60 porcelain tile. All of a sudden it started to run off the mitre edge leaving it thick. I’ve read the set up instructions and have it set...

    what do people use as a straight edge when you need one longer than a 6 or 8 ft level if any? I was wondering if a portable straight edge exists or does anyone have a home made version. Saw a few videos on Instagram from some Canadian tilers laying large format floor tiles with long metal...

    Gap between Tiles and the edge of the room

    Hi I have had some tiling done in my kitchen and I would like some advice. A tile laser level wasn't used, meaning where the tiles meet the edge of the room, there is a gap. I think this will look stupid. The guy doing the work has suggested chiselling into the plaster and using a finely cut...
