I will be grouting 330x300 wavy edge tiles.
What spacing should I use?.
I use 5mm spacers for straight edge tiles.

I've used rope for wavey tiles, the blue nylon stuff, you can split the braids down to more or less required thickness, gotta watch your vertical joints tho' and a bit of care is needed extracting it.

Space them by eye......much easier....work in grids to keep them in line.....:thumbsup:

they can look better with a wider joint....make sure you use a wide joint grout suitable for your grout joint width...

Im with Dave here, tile by eye. I might use a 5mm spacer for the first tile or two to use as a bit of a guide, then go by eye.

:thumbsup:Im with Dave on this one also.In addition use an adhesive with good grip to eradicate slipping.

I agree that uniform spacers are no good, I find that the old rope trick compresses where spacers don't so you get a random effect, but then again I'm having a bad night!!:grin:
