    mosaics on a curved step edge... mosiac experts???

    Just a long shot but do you know of any flexible profiles for use with mosaics on a curved step edge? By curved I mean a 90degree step as usual, but with a curved tread. This is just a thought, as it would avoid all the teeny tiny triangle cuts on a curved edge. Thanks! :thumbsup:

    The next step - taking someone on???

    I'm fortunate enough to be getting busier and busier now, to the point where I can't keep customers waiting longer that 6 weeks and so I lose the job.
