What is you biggest complaint? It can be that it takes up too much room or that it takes you so much longer? If you can't spare 10 seconds per tile to BB it easier you are on much tighter time frame than I am. It took me 30 seconds to type this and I could of BB'd 3 large tiles in that time.

Sorry to hear about your accident. You have challenges everyday that many of the rest of us don't. It must be hard to even move materials and tools for you. I can understand that you have adjusted and made things work for you. I applaud your still being part of the tile trade
The whole point is to KEEP your arms strong by reducing wear and tear on your body
i have been setting tile for over 42 years and COULD still spin tiles in my hand, but WHY should I?
Thanks for this feedback. I was confused as to which forum I was on. I was trying to find the Australian version. I found it. I realize that I have posted here and have many comments from you guys there in the UK. I understand that learning to use something "NEW" takes time to catch on. I just...
