    Default Born to hand scribe baby

    Had a bad start to the job as i forgot my Rubi and had to cut all the tiles with a hand scribe. Surprisingly the job went very well I had loads of room and it didn't take any longer than normal. Its been a long time since I used a scribe and that got me thinking how many of you boys and girls still use them and do the new tilers even know what they are?
