just caught onto this thread.
This is an excellent post, been in the tiling game for over 15 years and never seen that 3 way mitre before, no matterwhat you do in life you are still in a learning process.

Same for me.
On the other hand, why mitre the tile trims, if you can mitre the tiles itself?
It's been more than 5 years since I used the tile trims last time.

You big show off - you think you funny or sometin?:prrr:

That is good idea too but I quess it requires proper tile tablesaw with gide where you can cut with angle and lot of practice.(adjust blade or table to 45degrees.)
Is that how you done it?
or what you use?

And again do you do that with all kinds of tiles (in last 5 years)? or just marble?

have you tried this with 6mm aluminium?
Them r flat innit.
so this would not work.
You just simply miter top 2 pieces and 3rd upright put to the corner with normal straight cut.innit?
That is how I done it and it looks just fine. Clients happy.
Or what and how? Anybody want to aducate us?

small ordinary angle grinder and couple of sand papers




All tiles:smilewinkgrin:

Wao!

So you realy must have firm stady hand.
It must be impossible keep it perfectly straight without any sort of guide.
I never used grinder or tiling. Always wet or manual cutter but I think I will try that. Any advice you would give on that proces?
