What do you think the resulting bed is of the euro notch? In the glass panel demo it looked a bit thinner than the 1/2 in square. Maybe between 1/2 sq and 1/4 x 3/8 x 1/4 or basically the same and I’m seeing it wrong
I looked through your videos for info on thin sets but didn't see one. So many to choose from. Example Mapei : They have many different products for large tile format. Big price difference for what looks like the same product description on different bags. Thanks and good work!
Picked up Rubi Pro trowels at Home Depot (1/8 x 1/8, 1/4 x 13/32) for under $14. Hope Rubi makes quality trowels. Also got a QEP 1/2 square stainless for $8, felt ok in the hand
I'm glad you're making good videos. The only other contractor I recommend on RUclips would be Sal De Blasi. There are so many hacks on RUclips it's not even funny. I like watching Uncle Sal he's got a funny lisp with a New England accent.
So I’ve noticed when the notches get bigger the options turn into tiger trowel 1/2” square trowel but what about the round notch trowel when and where would I use a round notch trowel?
What's the minimum thickness the trowel notch can be for a 10mm thick tile. I'm trying to level it with pre-existing tiles that are a lot thinner (5mm) with 6mm thinset projection for a total of an 11mm projection. Not sure if it'll hold if I butter it too thin. It's a tumbled marble mosaic 10mm thick.
Great video. My first time in this channel. Subscribed and thumbs up plus notifications after I SAW YOUR WATCH!!! Not afraid Of getting duty = real deal
I'm installing 6"x12" marble tiles on a wall as a fireplace surround. Going by size I was going to use a 1/4-Inch by 3/8-Inch trowel but each tile weighs slightly less than 3 pounds. Should I step up to the 1/2". And which for the floor in front of the firebox?
I am a beginner and I have only done it once and I have watched many RUclips videos but can’t find one that actually says how much to put on and how you scrape it out and how to back butter tiles I used some small mosaics in my shower cubicle , your video is good
Question: When you install large format tile (24'' X 48'') do you use 1/2 trowel over the membrane and 1/2 in back of the tile ? I mean you put 1/2 of mortar on each end, or less in back of the tile? Thanks for your help !
We do it both ways. If you are new to tiling, I would recommend half inch on the membrane and the back of the tile so you can work the tiles in and together to get a flat installation. Both methods work and provide 100% coverage.
Thanks a lot Body ! I will do 1/2 inch over Ditra and 1/4 in back of the tile, just to make sure it doesn't go to hight for my floor. I watch your video about the wet tile saw dewalt, I bought one ! :)
Landberg Tile: Hi my friend!, I need your comment ont that: There is my floor layout: Joist 16'-8'' and 17' at 16'' center with 5/8 plywood tong and groove glue and screew. For the deflexion of the joist the place I bought the joist said L648, L699,L745. I need to tell you than I will have an island of 73'' X 84'' with granit counter top on top of my 24'' X 48'' tile. Do you think my joist are enought strong for not cracking my tile ? Deflexion is ok for the lenght of the joist? Would you add a second layer of plywood on top of my 5/8, maybee 1/2 or an other 5/8 plywood? Thanks for helping me, by the way you are a good teacher !
It's better with different jobs and applications. Cutting big heavy quartz, it's small and compact and no water! The Dewalt is still the best all around.
@@JB-gw5we I like the IQ better than the Dewalt, but I like the Dewalt when we do miters. If you don't miter porcelain, then the IQ is a go to for sure.

Can I get one of those shirts I'll tell them landberg tile TV hook me up size XXL
I like the glass panel demonstration. It really shows the coverage and how the ridges collapse. Great review on the trowel selection.
Thanks!
Blue ox euro trowels are awesome! Nice demonstration!

So what's the difference between the last two except for the price?

That pushing from side to side... is underrated. It does help to get the damn thing to stick permanently.
helped me a lot deciding what size to use for my backsplash project thank you for this!
Great video, very informative. Thank you for taking the time to educate us
My pleasure!

Great stuff with the glass tile. What about u-notch trowels?
Isnt Euro suggested for extremely large format? Like 4 foot tiles?
What’s the difference between the regular 1/8 trowel and a v notch trowel? Can they both be used for smaller tile or is one better then the other?

Gotta love Sal! Been watching his channel for 5 years now!
So I’ve noticed when the notches get bigger the options turn into tiger trowel 1/2” square trowel but what about the round notch trowel when and where would I use a round notch trowel?
love the mini,just used it in a niche like that
I would like to know your method for storage and transportation of tools and material like clips, spacers and everything else needed on the job.
That would be a great video! Thanks for the idea!

I forgot to mention, I'll be using Mapai LFT mortar.
Thanks for your explanation
What do you think of those MD trowels compared to other brand trowels?
Please when you use a notch trowel do you nearly scrape it jut where the notches are. I wish you could do a video on haw to spread it on and how thick
Yes, press hard and key in the thinset. Good idea on a video with how to properly spread it on.

Sorry brother, I don't have the shirts. They are in the link of the description.
What do you think about superior bilt premium trowel ?
good trowel!
Thanks for the great vid, what do you recommend for 6x36 porcelain tiles ? 1/4x3/8 or 1/2x1/2 ?
Thanks! We use 1/2 " by 1/2 "
@@LandbergTileTV thanks, Have a good one !
Hiw is the IQ saw working? do you recomend better than a dewalt wet saw?
It's better with different jobs and applications. Cutting big heavy quartz, it's small and compact and no water! The Dewalt is still the best all around.
@@LandbergTileTV thanks alot bro i do lots of comercial job and most are porcelain and was thinking on the IQ.
