removing tile spacers

[grumpygrouter]

I never leave spacers in. Always use them as pegs, reason being that tiles generally are not exactly square, I would also say that spacers are not "exactly" the same size on each leg either. This gives the chance that tolerances can be all over the place. Use spacers as a "guide" only and adjust by eye if necessary.

Pull the pegs with my fingers any that have gone tight pluck out with my cutters. x's dont guarentee a straight grout line vetically so use rack of the eye.
