    As long as you continue with that level of attention to detail, you will have a successful tiling career.

    Good luck fella.

    Nice work pal, keep up the good work! Did you run out of tiles for the last pic??
    I remember in college constantly running out of the same tile and also spending hours sat on the floor scrubbing the crappy adhesive off the back for re-use
    The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it!!

    Great photos. Once you get out in the market place dont forget to ask customers for photographs of your projects so you can add to an online portofolio and also carry them in a binder to each job.

    Once people see what you can do it gives them confidence to commission you to do their project.

    Even we take pics of our onsite work !

    sorry hope this doesnt sound daft but how would you set out for angled tiles like that in picture 5 of 5 ?
    it doesnt seem as simple as tiling in straight lines like a tiling up from a datum line and you keep following the rows if you get me
