Hi guys, just following on from the thread about battons or not to batton - how many use spacers when tiling large floor area (say upwards of 20 m2)? I find it better to ping a chalk line and work to that as the varyation in tile size puts you out if using spacers!

Oright guy's,
What do you guy's use? I personally think the smaller the better. And whats your method of spacing, do you place spacer all the way in or only 1 leg or do you even use spacers at all?

Hi
I saw a photo, (or was it a video?) on here recently - American I think, and the chap was using U shaped tile spacers. Seemed a good idea to me - being able to span two tiles, plus something to grab hold of. Does anyone know where to get them from?
