They also tiled the great pyramid at geezer :smilewinkgrin: just a while back :lol: ( same tools anyway )

hehehe we use the old methods not because we haven't the newer but because the newer not always suit our architecture here :) we sometimes use it when we tiling on top of already tiled surfaces which are straight and already take it;s slope and this take about 3 ml of mortar and 1 cm of ceramic that is mean we take 1.3 cm of the space available for wood (doors)
