Thanks for the video! I'm prepping to tackle an accent section in this kind of tile. How did you maintain proper spacing? I can't wrap my mind around where to put spacers! I got my tile second hand and can't find verification on whether they are to be/can be laid up against the other. Thanks again for giving us all a leg up!
The spacers should go along the flat edges of the tile, both on the sides and on the top/bottom. I used wedge spacers, then ran out, and finished with the traditional + shaped spacers (I just had them sticking out into the room - using one arm, with the spacer rotated 90 degrees if that makes sense). Regardless of the type of spacer they jut into the room with this type of tile.
It's a Rigid overhead 7" tile saw from Home Depot. If I had it to do all over again, I'd get the same saw. I'll never use a wet table saw (under blade) again.
Thank you very much. This was very helpful.
Smart! Thank you! I'll definitely be using this when I do my arabesque backsplash ☺️
Hope it helps! Good luck with your project.
Great idea. Where did you find those tiles, they are beautiful. Having the hardest time finding this shape tiles.
These were at Lowe's of all places, but they were discontinued. Had to go to five stores to get enough for my project... clearance rack steal!

Perfection! I'll try to remember to add my final results when I'm finished!
good technique!
Good job!
What kind of wet saw do you have and use
