Bedding out a mosaic border

[Ian]

I came up with this idea about 18 months ago and have only just got round to making it. The original one I made was metal and marked the field tiles so I found some suitable components in plastic. It's a bit crude but, does the job well. The white handle is a pan scraper and the red attachments are spatulas normally used for applying car body filler, lol! There are 4 different sizes 50/75/100 and 125mm, I cut 3mm notches in the 50mm one I used today. The depth is adjustable depending on the thickness of adhesive that is required. I was going to try and make and sell them but, I was in B&Q the other day and they have something similar so it turns out its not a new idea, either that or they pinched my idea somehow!

Lol quick question bri why the walls first mate?

I always do the floor last when possible just so I'm not walking all over it while I'm doing the walls. On this occasion I couldn't do the floor first even if I'd wanted to because the plumber still had some pipe work to do under the floorboards for the towel warmer.

 

[Mr T]

Could be all sorts of reason could even be bri's prefference lol :ban:

Did you mean why the walls before the floor or why did I put the border in last? I might have answered a question that you didn't ask!
