    A classroom example of using a trimming knife skillfully. Camera angles were great, exposing the detail close up.
    I'm about to embark on laying Lino for the first time & have viewed multiple videos, but not anymore.
    Yours is the template & only reference point I need to begin the work with some confidence.
    Thank you so much for your advice. 👍

    Hello mate.
    Great little vid 👍
    I'm a tradesman, but never fitted vinyl before for clients. Not because of lack of skills but just missing a trick on how to use the knife to cut so tight. Now I know. I never ever thought to bend the tip of the hook blade. Jidzooks. I have 3 rooms to do soon so I'm actually feeling emboldened and confident rather than worried. 😅 Thanks Eggy. Appreciated.
    Little Tip for you.
    Throw the dustpan away.
    Get a Henry vac and wide soft brush ends etc. Look after those lungs. I never sweep. Only vac.
    Cheers buddy 👍.

      As a certified floor layer lv 3 mate I tell you what mate it's the screed dust that gets you and F60 best glue in the world better than that tape if your ever doing anything we're it is required and make sure you have a mask for that one tho

    Hi eggy mate, cheers for you videos it helped me lay down vinyl over the weekend 👍 I managed to get a small crease and you advise a heat gun which I don't have but will a hair dryer do it? Do I have to be careful it doesn't stretch and I have a bubble in the middle of the room? Would be great to see a video on this, as your the only that has mentioned this issue in videos

But the biggest thing that you've put my mind at rest with is, you laid it straight onto chipboard surface, it's the same as what's down in my bathroom, and so many saying that it should be ply'd first, I just hope I can make as good a job of it as you have here, thanks 👍
