[DHTiling]

If it is plasterboard and no skim coat, then it can be hard to remove some paints as they have soaked like you say.. may be wise to slurry coat it..

One of my most used tools used to be the bottom of the old thermos flask, it made a great template for soil pipes. These days I use the single suction pad, gives you just the right tolerance.

and i thought I was the only one that did that Phil

Stabila LAX50 cross laser level. Cheap, accurate, save you a lot of time setting out, and when tiling, to check if your rows are going to meet up on that final wall...

Couldn't agree more. Bought one of these about 1 year ago and I would be lost without it. Saves a lot of time.
Just bought a (TT-2068) Bosch GTL3 Tile Laser of Dave Neave and hopefully that'll be worth the money as well

I bought the laserliner that Tradetiler used to sell, fab piece of kit, i use it with the pole, great for checking levels quickly, and you can use the pole for supporting windows heads as they dry!

spare toilet roll for when you get caught short and there's no paper in the loo

 

[Alan M]

one of those pressure testing bungs that you put into a pipe and screw tight . very handy for stoping the smell coming up the pipe. pop it into a bag first and its clean afterwards. best few money ever spent.


also a hose pipe and fitting to conect to the tap in the kitchen etc

 

[andy8758]

Anyone suggested an extra bucket for when you disconnect the loo......

Just bumping some of the tiling tools related threads. This thread might not be current discussion, if it isn't, just ignore this, and it'll soon drop off the list. Don't worry if you bring it back into current discussion yourself though, the content within it could be useful for somebody. So feel free to add to it if you have something valuable to add.

 

[Dan]

Do we have more things to add to this list?
