90 degree herringbone is easy.... true herringbone 45 degrees is a pain.......I started a thread on this about a month ago....

Any chance you can explain how you set that floor out ali? Cheers
You have to square to the root of 5 dgs - the length x width of the hypotenuse of 10 .

Hi andy could you link me the thread i cant find it
Thank you.
Silver travertine all cut from larger pieces.
I really enjoyed doing this one.

you need to do a dry run across the room to avoid a double cut on your longest walls ..ie so you dont get small cuts on the end of your long cuts ..and the same length ways to avoid tiny cuts on your big v s as we call em hard to explain really but i used to do loads of hardwood floors as a lad
Glad you did that...I haven't got a clue..lol

Which type Ash?
Do u mean u have a two sided 45o square? (Always thought that was a contradiction of terms!) 😀

Mr Tiler
One sides 450 i think the other side is 300 but i would imagine i can get the same result using it what you think 3?
