Slate pattern

[Fred]

Started today, I'm so confused, I can't even remember if its 6, 7, 8 pattern slate tiles on one wall! My eyes are googled!!! Slate from Topps, and they don't even fit one-another, so I've had to cut some to fit!

17 m2 wall, to fit behind the clients Queen--Queen bed, with a head board thats five foot tall! Basically, a 6 million quid house in Surrey, you look at the house, ok, nice, then it goes down, down , down! Swimming pool, home cimema the lot. I could put my home in it, say 10 times! Two feature bathrooms on all three levels. The bloke next door is a Chelsea football player.

I'm sort of.....well, star struck! I can't believe the money. The bloke I'm working for imports cars to Russia, one of only a few who are allowed.

Pics to follow, if I can hold the camera striaght!

well Fred cut dow the small tile as it 200x200 and it needs to be 197x197 for the pattern to work , if its the i think your installing , done a few , but only on from topps done it once but didnt take me long to relise

Is it the multi sheera? As posted above, the smaller squares need to be cut to make it an exact fit with spacers, but I prefer the rustic look and stretch / squeeze where needed

I'm not sure the make, will find out tomorrow when I finish off and take a picture. The small squares did needed to be cut a little to suit. The 600 x 300 deep black ones, some were more golden, were a nightmare to cut.
