    Template for the perfect cut tile every time. In this video I show you step by step how to make a template to mark your tile for cutting and how it will give you the perfect fit every time. Large format tiles can be difficult to install, throw in a pattern, and then put it on a diagonal, and now you just made it much harder, not only the are these tiles difficult to install, to get proper thinset coverage, have no tile lippage, keep everything straight and square. Just marking them for cuts becomes a challenge, especially in a confined area, like a closet, or in a doorway. In this video I show you how to make easy work of getting a precise mark to cut and fit your tile. This will also work for smaller tiles, but comes in especially useful for large format tiles.

    That same technique used with the ruler and marking the locations is how I put in linoleum. I put paper down on the entire floor, tape it all together and use diamond cuts to tape it down and mark it accordingly. It's a great tip and so worth knowing how to do.
    Great job,
    Nice video

    I recently did a job installing 47" x 47" tiles (four of them). They were too heavy to carry by myself. I arranged them on the floor in front of the wall to where they would eventually go.I had to cut the bottom two around a fireplace. I literally spent an entire afternoon taking measurements and marking the tiles accordingly, double-checking, and triple-checking everything. While I'm basically happy with how it turned out, making a template - had it occurred to me - would have sped things up, and made the job at least a little less stressful. .

    You show the best tips for us being able to do a professional tile installation. Much appreciated. Quick question when you slide a tile in like that to clear the jam do you have to do anything special with the thinset application. I know you have no choice to install the tiles this way. Just wondering if the thinset might move too much as you slide in the tile.
    Thanks

    Would you prime an OSB sub floor before you layed down your straramat ?
    If you were going to do so what type of primer would you use?
    Thanks, CB

    @sal diblasi why do you make lines on the opposite side of what you originally made for the template I'm confused if you draw out the lines for the tile to fit why would you remark them

    Sal - did you cut the cardboard one more time based on the one inch marks that were made around the template? It appears from the video that you cut to the inside of the temple closest to the wall and didn’t even use the 1” marks? I’m a little confused? Otherwise awesome video!!

    • @SalDiBlasi
      @SalDiBlasi  3 года назад +1

      The area around the cut just has to be close, within the thickness of your straight edge. the cardboard can not cover the area where you need to mark the tile.

  • @MrBt1977
    @MrBt1977 3 года назад

    Can also simply add some tape as needed to your template instead of marking with the straight-edge.
