The sizes shown will work together but because the chistled edges tend to creap you will need to keep the joint pretty narrow or it can look odd and tooo wide if you get me.........

is that the same pattern as CJ's Dave or is it that CJ's photie is inverted?


It was the same Pattern Doug..........I had the very same template that Dave posted.

I got the wife to take it too her work and get a blown up photocopy.
Then stapled it to my forehead so I wouldn't mess it up :smilewinkgrin:

I will post some pics when done. Thanks for all the info guys. I will dry lay to see what spacer size suites best.

I'm sure the one I did was that pattern, maybe my tiles were slightly different dimensions as I know that I had to use narrow spacers

Charlie...........check the small square against the others...........your'll probably find that you need to adjust the space for them. They tend NOT to allow for the spaces when cutting them :incazzato:

Chiselled edge travertine does make the grout lines appear bigger than they are.

Need to allow for various spaces really on SOME multi patterns

What i do is photo copy the pattern five times, and then cut them so the interlink so i have one pattern in the middle, one on the left and right, one on the top and bottom then laminate them individually, the when fixing i can see the next pattern on what ever side im working on...stops a lot of head scratching, or ****-ups. :thumbsup:

I did one of these last year. I had to use 2mm and 4mm spacers. Because the smaller sizes, make up the exact size of the bigger ones, there is no alowance for grout lines. Looked great when finished. :thumbsup:
