fitting
Curve fitting is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, possibly subject to constraints. Curve fitting can involve either interpolation, where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing, in which a "smooth" function is constructed that approximately fits the data. A related topic is regression analysis, which focuses more on questions of statistical inference such as how much uncertainty is present in a curve that is fit to data observed with random errors. Fitted curves can be used as an aid for data visualization, to infer values of a function where no data are available, and to summarize the relationships among two or more variables. Extrapolation refers to the use of a fitted curve beyond the range of the observed data, and is subject to a degree of uncertainty since it may reflect the method used to construct the curve as much as it reflects the observed data.
I'm tiling a 20X20 room, and it will require a lot of cuts around the edges. My question: Would you dry fit the room first? I don't want my thinset drying on me while I'm in an out making cuts, but dry fitting adds a lot of time to the job. What's your method?

I have just started using the Rubi dv 200 cutter and it works really well however I felt I needed a line at the back of the machine.

There is...

Hi,
new here and after some advice on fitting a raised stone resin shower tray.
The shower tray comes with a raised upstand kit which is a fixed height.
Do you set the shower base at the height of the upstand plus the 10mm floor tiles plus the tile adhesive?
That seems the most obvious to me...
Hello Tilers
I recently fitted a bathroom for a (paying) friend.
One of the problems I encountered was the soil pipe which runs behind, then turns to run along the tap end of the bath. I made up the gap with 76 x 51 mm (3''x 2'') CLS, I tiled it forming a slope to shed water, grouted and then...

This is how I got covered in Celotex dust in the image from Simons post. It wasn’t much fun, nasty stuff that.
This is the less glamorous side to fitting ex large formats.
Trying to squeeze 3.2’s x 1.6’s in to a very small space.
They were cutdown to 2.4m first, and had to go in to a shower...
Hi all.
Just seen a previously tiled bathroom where the tiler rather than have the widest face of the trim facing outwards around the window reveal as normally fitted actually has fitted it so this side is within the reveal and just the 2-3mm edge is visible as you look at the window.(which...
