No sound?

You could have done with some form of measuring device to measure the pressure on them somehow. Mythbusters style.

Wait there, just realised I've got external speakers plugged in and not turned on. Numpty.

lol good vid mate but what are ya trying to atchieve?

I got 4 minutes in lee and not quite sure what it is you're doing.
How are the vices setup?

 

[Rizzle from the Portizzle]

the tiles are stuck to ply cut in half then a decoulper put on the tiled noches cut out of ply then put between vices then using a turgue wrench turned intill the decoupler gives to see how much pressure and movement a decoulper can handle. problem is the vice broke before the decoulper .so back to the drawing board :incazzato:

You'll have to forgive me im watching the video on my mobile. But i can't really see what is clamped in to the vice exactly and in what direction is it being pulled when you turn the vice?

Good attempt at showing how effective the mat is. I've thought about trying it myself but never seem to get round to doing it! Does anyone have any data that shows how much it is claimed a crack can open by before the adhesive links to the mat fail?

Well done to Lee Ray and Albert for taking the time to do the test , its very impressive just how much bond strength the tilemaster adhesive has even to a sheet of glass looking forward to doing the rest of the test samples once a stronger testing rig is set up :smilewinkgrin:
