Im pretty sure that dave or dan has done a three way cut on trim



Guys, I can do 3 way mitres, what I'm saying is that it can't be done with the 12mm homelux trim. The curve is too shallow. It can be done quite easily with a 6mm and 9mm trim from Homelux, just not the 12mm. Have a go with the Homelux 12mm and let me know how you get on.:thumbsup:

Yes it is i think it was formaly PTS now Specialist training courses. The trainers are top draw i have learned so much in 4 days there is a hell of a lot to take onboard.

The trainers have always got time to explain something or advise on the best methods to use. Its becoming more complex now but with the help i hope to get some grounded skills, then its of to balls up my own bathroom a few times over before i use proper adhesive for a finished article.

Following on from previous days instead of talking about the presentaions and theory work because theres to much i will just keep to the practicals.

So now we sent to do an estimate and to tile the wall to a certain height and to tile the floor with a feature. I just hope i get the quote right then theres just the very small matter of tiling the floor and wall :yikes:

is it a pts course you are doing, looks like it, if so they are good teachers they will see u alright, its good to double check and sometimes it pays to walk away from it for a min then go back and look again, it looks like u coming along nicely :thumbsup:
