Thought I would post a picture of the rubi bucket I bought and started off new tools Tuesday, still going strong after being used almost daily. Needs a good clean when I get a chance

Tbh I don't understand you getting one of those as I thought getting a tile into it would be a nightmare and would think that using a rail system you can place on top of a tile on a bench would be easier. Now I not being dismissive but I am genuinely interested why you would go that route .
Well. If a customer is paying £150 a tile they do not expect lots of breakages. We are having trouble getting 100% cut rate. I would rather spend money and keep the customer and myself happy. 6mm thick tile is a doddle even a 3200mm cuts easy on a rail cutter. These are pigs to cut they are rock hard. Putting an 1800 into this machine is easy. On the other hand a 2400 x6mm could be difficult @3_fall ? It only cost a mortgage but anything to make life easy 🙂

It only cost a mortgage but anything to make life easy .......maybe a month of mortgage, don't overdo it 😉
 
Let’s see if £70 trousers last better than the few months of all the others I have ever owned.

They have 4 way stretch apparently, and they actually fit like a pair of trousers should.

So far so good.

Good luck . I can't get on with kneepads so have to wear trousers with knee pad pockets i find they wear depending what I kneeling on and funnily enough I've noticed they wear badly on dural ci matting

My new Floorlayers with the stretchy knees are very comfy until I have the pads in. Then they become a bit tight and uncomfortable in the old gentlemen's sausage department.
Design flaw I think.

I should be alright with those then
 
I always got on well with Snickers trousers and I loved the knee pad pockets. I found they were always one size too small compared with everything else I buy though.

@3_fall posted this as a joke for someone on TT. Its a 10mm thick tile so not much chance of damaging it. Had a load of 4x2s behind me so looks a bit cumbersome lifting. 🙂
😉 Cant seem tomload video ?
 
And yes I'm still sulking
It was Terry Dale who kicked you off, but that was only because he mis read something and thought your profile wasn’t genuine, easy mistake to make if you ask me.
But you as a person, weren’t thrown off

I’d throw you off given the chance! 😛😛😉
 
Tbh Marc that rankles even more the fact he misread something and kicked me off and just because I dont have enough personal details on my face book account to create a false bank account in my name he judges me as someone who set up a false profile to just troll their fb page, no I don't need it . To be honest it's noses and faces but I wouldn't go back on there unless I received an apology from Terry Dale , childish I know but I doubt that is going to happen any time soon .
