You swine! :lol: :84:


Thanks for the offer mate, im down in Kent. I bought one of these in the end

Screeding Levels | Floor Screeding Tools > 1.8m, 2m, 2.5m, 3m

we use a pack of spirit levels (1800, 1200, 600) & i added a 1000 into the carry case. we only ever use them if we tile the
walls before the floor then stick the bottom tile in.
I drilled holes along the lengths of the beads about every 30/40mm so if its stud walls then we can screw into the stud for
a good fixing.
put the stabila along the top of them though once they are fixed as they were only cheap.

they are very expensive, i got mine in the usa..ordered them and they sent two..i had thought i ordered 2 pair as the web page showed two stands i pointed that out to the agent and he agreed then sent me another pair..so i got them for $48..bargain..they are streets ahead of the rubi stands you can actually level with them..my kids could do it they are that easy.

what is that section of house constructed of dave? wood?

 

[davemul]

Internal stud wall Mike. The original house was extended (old 1800's cottage) so the bathroom is now in the middle of the house upstairs. (no real natural light hence really light tiles)

other side of that wall is a small study area then the rear of house

i thought it was an internal wall till i seen the window, i couldn't work it out.
