Lash clips?

[EFC Mike]

Hello all,

Has anyone tried the lash clips from Tradetiler.
Just wondering wether to try them or stick with normal x spacers.
Ta.

I think garretridge was to try them a while back!
I wonder did he?

I thought they seemed a bit of a fad, but I'll give them a go and report back with my findings.

They seem a bit redundant in that they claim they should only be used on flat floors. Surely you wouldn't need them then!

Ive used them never again though...... the floor has to be perfect flat for solid bed when you put the peg in it can lift the tile off the bed if you see what i mean...... Use a 10 mm trowel and rubber mallet and butt tiles to get flat finish no lipping then just move tile away for which ever joint size you are using dont use spacers either

they look a bit d.i.y..ish to me

yor right hillhead i have a box of them in the garage they are for diy market not a professional tiler they slowed me down and as said above need flat surface so whats the point good trowel with the correct mix should be no problem to acheive a level finish dont waste your money!

being a total beginner .. These look like something you could learn with .. but they do clearly say in the video that they only work on even floors ... so maybe just one of those things you have in the back of the van that you use on the odd occasion of getting an even floor maybe ?
