    Yes I think I worked out when to cut the mitre vertically and when to cut it flat. It doesn't come out perfect though but I file them to match. I will show you pictures soon.

    Sorry about the confusion earlier

    to get a 3 way mitre to work. firstly the corner to be tiled has to be perfectly square and plumb,and the trim has to be a proper quadrant, if not custom cut needed.

    am sure if your members, that are not that long in the tile fixing trade....

    practise these two videos they will have a little more confindence when working with tiles,and not get to much off the..squeaky bum......

    off course, as has been said there are lots off devices out there to help you,but sometimes using just a couple off basic tools does the job just as good IMO.....

    enjoy....
