[QUOTE="Blunt Tool, post: 877346"] Pity about this but I tried to get a few photos but got thrown out for not getting their permission! Was on holiday and was walking through a shopping centre that was getting a refurb. There were a group of tilers doing a large floor with large format tiles. Some were mixing and pouring slc on large areas, but it was their system that intrigued me. They had 2 wheelie bins and had drilled a hole around 20mm at bottom centre with rubber sink plug hole and chain in it. They mixed slc in buckets then poured into bins until each bin had around 6 mixed bags in it, then they wheeled over to the areas needing attention then pulled plug out and walked around with wheelie bin to direct flow where required. Another 2 had on spiked shoes and close gap rakes to push screed around. Thought it was pretty ingenious, then I saw another 2 tilers spreading adhesive with steel snow shovels that they had grinded to give teeth to and mixed the adhesive in big plastic bins full, they put the shovels in to get it loaded up then went along in line to create stretches! Maybe they were bin men in another life!! [/QUOTE]
