  1. This is going to take some cleaning !!
  2. Quality can often be missed
  3. Your eyes are (expletive deleted)ed
  4. My levellers were loose in a box with no instructions - but unsurprisingly I found 3) Before the cement or tile glue has completely dried up (usually no more than 6 hours), tighten the adjusting cover in the opposite direction, then rotate the T-pin 90 degrees so that the T-pin turns to a zigzag parallel to the tile, and remove the leveler; Tricky when you don't live on site!

    What will happen WHEN @Onoff breaths it in? - asking for a friend.
  6. Did it tell you to do some tiling ? ?
  7. Is cleaning and trying to get these f ing things out meant to take longer than the tiling ??? ?
  8. True . Those rips eh ???
  9. Using the jigsaw blade again they do eventually come out . Note to self remove levellers next day !! ?
  10. These levellers seem to remove fairly easy on most vertical joints . Horizontal I’m struggling
  11. I’m worried about pressing it to bed it . I can’t apply any pressure on the sliver . Am I being a wuzz ? ?
  12. Braved it again . Then cut the remaining bits out by hand using a jigsaw blade . Nibblers have there own mind what to break . So best way to bed this ? . Certainly can’t put a levelling attachment across this joint
  13. I plunged cut the initial opening . But then when ‘nibbling’ snapped it . I can probably cut it without snapping . But bedding it on the wall without snapping it will be tricky
  14. Can’t find overlap details online but a plate seems to be 24cm x 16cm . That only allows 5mm or so either side ? Even if I do cut that tile ok - bedding it without is snapping will be a dog . Can I cheat ? . Do the rest of the tile with adhesive and that sliver with ct1 ? ( Assume that will exert less pressure on the tile and avoid it snapping . Suggestions welcome !
  15. Oh you dog ! Got to do a skinny cut for tile to go over flush . Of course it snapped ? Can anyone tell me the overlap of a geberit flush plate ? . If it’s 15mm or so then I’ll just do a cut piece and hide the joint
  16. I just use an sds mixer attachment for my drill
  17. Yeah , sometimes it seems to like that . It’s like a woman . You can’t be quite sure what to do but you can bet it will be wrong .
  18. Nothing bad to hide . Pure skill ?
  19. Yes re usable . I’m on it boss !!?
  20. I do try ! . Scared of ‘moving’ things !!
  21. You saying it looks sh*te then ? ? Only question you really need to answer is .... ” Does it look better than @Onoff ‘s ? “ ??
  22. My testies have grown a bit today
  23. Ok , so done a few more cuts . The pump is funny - sometimes it wants to work standing up ; other times lying down . Strange there’s no proper ‘holder’ for it in the tray . So I always before a cut have to make sure I can see water at the blade . Things I do like . Almost zero mess . Zero wobble in the tray as you slide a tile in . I had to trim 2mm off a tile - it did it without breaking the off cut . Don’t think that would be possible on a ‘normal’ wet cutter . Nice big on/off button facing you - not hidden on the side . Sits nicely on the stand (d240001) - no back ache cutting . Good visibility as you cut - just look slightly off centre and can see blade cutting tile . Obviously I’m probably using about 10% of its ability . But it makes cutting less of a pita . Though it is a big beast - so only for big jobs ( like tiling an entire house ) . Tool for real men ??????
