Used a tub gear in 75 but can't remember the name but did'nt seem to hold tiles very well.....

Does that mean the famous Bal guarantee has expired?

They never did in those days Mark. That is probably why the tiles all had spacer lugs on them.

Showing my age now.:lol:

Spacer lugs. Chamfered edge. Those packs of cardboard spacers in a pack of tiles. Straight spacer sticks and spacers that were the bits punched out of the tile trim.

Spot on Neale, the bits punched out of the tile trim, what a rip off they were, then again waste not, want not, a very clever way of using every part of the product process.

I remember my old boss telling me about the trim waste spacers, brilliant idea from the trim manufacturer to make money from the scrap.
