    [QUOTE[/QUOTE]When you do the border do you use a router on a guide or plunge saw at the right depth, also how do you fix the border just butt up an glue or do you router a groove and use a biscuit joint to together? wouldn't mind learning how to do that myself, looks proper pro

    It's 10mm square edge so you just mark your border width on the floor, stick to that line, lay your herringbone, then run your rail saw along your border line , insert your border and do your mitres, and cut your edge border, then stick all the outside section, sand and fill any gaps then sand again with finer grades, then apply your seal, sounds simple when you type it , lol

    Boen do a prefinished 10mm engineered herringbone - it's not much fun when customer decides they want a border (can't sand or fill), much prefer unfinished.

    Even though the glues nowadays are so much better and you don't probably need too, we always put in 6 pins per panel and then fill
    It just adds to the look, one of these days might do it without or offer to the client without
