Herringbone walls ! The definitive answer?

What would be good if there was a measurement system ,how far from centre or centre ,cheers

There’s a way to centre herringbone properly. There is a thread about it on here, I’ll see if I can find it rather than trying to explain it all again lol.

@Dan why won’t my search bar let me type anything into it 🧐

It's working on mine mate.

You got an ad-blocker running?

Can anybody else confirm the search bar is working, and threads are coming up?

Seems alright to me. 🙂

Replied to PM mate. I'll take the advice for search bar over to there. Just letting other people know we are on it. 😉

So having read this thread through what part are you struggling with? Maybe I can explain it better.

I now know what to do ,i centred the wall and left was ok but right was nearly a ten mm cut ,there is a calculation ,better to start from one corner sometimes

No calc just understanding what the middle of a herringbone layout is . You probably put one of your tile corners on the centre line whereas you should put the middle of the end of the tile on the centre line

Hi all,
Following this with interest. Please see sketch( sorry for the blue peter offering, technology not my strong point).
I was taught to setout and start herringbone like figure 1. ( it wasn’t a full wall mind, it was a small panel of a four panelled display piece.)

Is it best to setout start as in figure 2?

Looks OK to me as long as all sides of your square are equal
