    Mario's little toy lvt trimmer came in handy today fitting amtico with the backing too proud, makes the job a while lot quicker and less stressful... then onto the hole reamer.....Love it.

    Thanks for the speedy delivery MJ
    Nice touch with the chocolate browney aswell :D...You forgot to put the teabags in though :(

    Weekends job is to fix them segments to my homemade 'bolt on' drive board cover :rolleyes:

    It looks massive in the pic on the shop but when I pulled it out the box I had to have a giggle....I thought he'd sent me a midgets tool.
    ....then I realised Why the hell would it be the size I thought it was going to be :confused:

    It's a simple tool with a blade that takes a minute piece off the edge you run across it, great for amtico tiles. No more back trimming with your knife risking hacking your thumb off if you slip in a daydream from the tedious crap you have to do with some of amtico's planks lately again.

    Use your knife to chamfer the bur

    Razor planes are for taking half a mm off straight cuts

    :rolleyes: Ahhh right so amtico sending tiles out already snapped...erm no!
    I'm on about when you take the plank out the box BEFORE you've even set your knife to it is what I was on about when this tool is good to use and shave off what the machine couldn't be bothered to do :rolleyes:

    You refered to using your knife to take off the bur which yes with the odd tile that's fine because it's not near every tile like pulling out fresh from the box is it.
