Dolly

[Stef]

Bought myself a dolly today out of ScrewFix, trying to tile on my own fitting 600 square porcelain tiles, up & down up & down.
Don't know why I never bought one of these years ago for fitting large tiles..
I went into lidl to see if they had any as I knew they had been selling them a while ago.

Worked that out today Sean, cost me £50 but it's a right heavy duty one, holds 250kg

Cut a bit of 18mm ply & screwed it into place

Jeez that's expensive. Only paid 12 quid for mine from lidl

I was going to buy one the last time they were in.
Will keep an eye out & buy one next time & maybe take the broken one back to ScrewFix.. [emoji6]

I must have 6 or 7 different ones knocking around, really handy for all size tiles. I've got about 100m2 of 200x200 to fit next week and can easily stack 10m2 on one of them.

Mines got a bit of old carpet stapled onto it. Stops the tiles 'bouncing' and reduces risk of cracking.

Bit of ply.......4 rubber casters/wheels. Sorted.

Looked at that option but heavy duty wheels are rather expensive.
Using my Dolly again today, I still can't believe I haven't bought one sooner.

I've made all mine myself, various sizes shapes. I couldn't function without them nowadays. I even made one specifically for my adhesive, spacers and water bucket.
