Thanks for the feedback folks, I think it will take a bit of planning. But I have been speaking to a few people today, and it seems there are enough people interested to set something up.

I have been informed by a few top people in our industry, that there are no courses currently teaching the correct methods, so thanks for the support, and watch this space.:thumbsup:

Just to add, TJ and I had a long conversation tonight, he is away working for a couple of weeks, but we have arranged to meet up and put together a course that will be the real deal.

If anyone has any input, as to what they would like to take away from this, or any specific points on this type of work, please feel free to post, PM. or phone. between us two old school tilers, I'm sure we can accommodate.

The good thing is we will be passing on knowledge to tilers, who are interested in learning a new discipline.:thumbsup:

The way I see it Phil, this opportunity doesn't come by every day & if a tiler is serious about their trade then this is something that they should be biting your hand off for..
Well done for taking the time to do this kind of course..
Hope to see you & TJ soon..

good on you phil.
i reckon this is right up your street.
i can feel that you are excited and rightly so.
i was just thinking about you today doing my first geometric floor for over twenty years.
looking at all the set out options on borders i had a look at the original style brochure and of course they only show linear sections or one corner detail.
you and tj could do a great book about this type of tiling as well as giving a course , featuring work you have done , options of layout patterns for a certain situation, preparation etcc
