both of those pieces.
We can't help that.
If we try to do a cut there we, unfortunately, will lose
that bit anyway so we'll sacrifice it now and we'll put it on back later.
That's the two pieces cut.
We'll use the angle grinder to take the rest out.
When cutting out holes like this I always cut them a little bit smaller than I need
just in case.
If you take out too much you can't add it back.
I'll just check the fit.
Looks pretty good.
So what I'm going to do is I'll glue this in.
Glue in the other pieces in and around it.
Finish up this section here and then continue on down to the right until we get
to the pipes and I'll show you how to cut those.
Sometimes when we get into this position here the tiles will actually sag a little bit so
what I'm going to do is use a bit of masking tape just to hold them into position till
they set.
That'll just help to hold it just in position there.
Our next step here now is to measure and cut for our pipes.
I'm going to measure from the edge of the tile to the edge of the pipe and then
to that side there.
I'll transfer that information onto the tiles.
There's the two marks for the start and the other edge of the pipe.
I'm going to draw a semi-circle here and that's our first cut.
So that's the first one.
We've probably got another two or three more to go.
So when I
put
the two tiles together you can see
that's where
the hole's going to be.
I'm going to use an angle grinder to cut those holes out but if you're not comfortable using
an angle grinder a pair of nippers like this is just as easy.
Tiles are cut and they fit well.
Time to glue them up and put it in place.
Now that we've got the difficult cuts out the way we'll continue on and finish the wall.
Well, that's the final piece in.
Looks terrific.
I'm going to give it twenty-four hours before we clean it down and re-grout it.
And that's how we lay herringbone tile pattern.
