How would you set this one out?

Sometimes i'm amazed at what pro tilers can do, check out this youtube

How do you set a border out like that? the walls must have to be perfectly square? or do you cut to the border?

Looks like he may have undercut the skirting...or maybe previous floor covering removed.

Fair play though hope to be able to do this myself one day

good tunes also 😉

Looks very nice....didn't see much in the way of "setting" the tile into the adhesive bed though!

He just dropped the tile into the addy level with existing tiles and put in pacers, gonna have to hope no one with stilettos walks in 😉

So hw do you do it? mark out your border first then centre to the border? in this case split into several areas and centre to borders? Looks like hes cut the large tiles to the black.
