    Hi all,
    Just after a bit of advice on seaming the bigger carpets ( +12m). Any advice/tips would be handy on making things easier to get a good finish, how to get them in posistion ready to seam bearing in the weight of them. Cheers guys.

    As Matt says just positoin it with your kicker,sometimes though on long lenghts when you try to match them one lenght wont match exactly when placed together, so you might have to position one piece then anchor the other peice to the gripper and strecth to get your match,just hope that if your doin a few long drops that the next peice is not longer than where the match is.
    Had that problem before and had to put a false match by putting a cross join in 700m2 function suite
