    If you enjoyed the quality of this video and want to help support me and the effort I put into creating these videos, you can now give me a SUPER THANKS!!!🙌🏻😍
    This is a short excerpt from an upcoming full length video. My wife and I are working on a family room makeover in our house and it included a couple tile projects. We'd heard about tile leveling spacers and wanted to try some and I'm glad we did! This short video shows how I used them on my projects....I just wish I had used these when we did our bathrooms a couple years ago! They're easy to use and we're very happy with the results. We also have a porch that needs to be tiled and we're definitely going to be using these leveling spacers when we do that project.
    Here's a link to the leveling spacer system we used: amzn.to/3r9kxDi

    I’m using these for the first time in a shower with subway tile. Having a way to bring tile flush is a game changer for me. One thing I’ve found is they pop off easily with a good whack but if you place them too close to an interior corner it’s difficult to get enough force to cleanly knock them off. I’ve used a dremel with a tiny blade to carefully cut them out. That’s my only complaint.

      i never thought of the inside corner issue you mentioned. My projects didn't include that scenario but thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind on future projects too👍🏻 p.s. I like your profile image 🕊️

      i was really surprised how well they worked! i figured i'd try them on a small project and worst case i'm out $25 but i'm sold! definitely never tiling without them now haha👍🏻

    Lowes sells a pliers like tool for snapping the top of spacer off.

      a completely different tool for a completely different task

    Good work but I can't believe you covered that beautiful brick with that ugly woodgrain tile! I've been doing tile for thirty years and thought I better learn how to use these new spacers everyone is using.

    • @stuffsethmakes
      @stuffsethmakes  Před rokem

      that brick is so stinking outdated. Time for a change. thanks for the view👍🏻

    • @matthewbattie1022

      @@stuffsethmakes That brick is timeless, like God, Sex, and the Bill Of Rights! Still good work though.

    Do these take the place of grout spacers?

    Used these, and they do not pop off that easily, they leave plastic sticking out, they are horrible! I am going to have to use a soldering iron tip to melt them down so they don't show.

    • @stuffsethmakes
      @stuffsethmakes  Před 5 měsíci

      sorry you had a difficult time, they worked 100% perfectly for me on a couple different projects and I'm going to be using them again for my porch tile next month👌🏻. maybe it's operator error in some way? Good luck with your future projects 👍🏻

      they're great. I'm about to tile my porch soon and will be using them again. so helpful!

    Good video . Get rid of the music at least while you are talking.

      clarify what part of the video you're referring to.

    I wish they’d give honest reviews these are flimsy and very cheap don’t use if your tile is bowed or warped.

    • @stuffsethmakes
      @stuffsethmakes  Před 10 měsíci +1

      loved these tile leveling spacers. Sounds like the only thing flimsy and cheap are your tiles 🤣. Maybe buy better quality tiles next time 👍🏻

    • @chewar7537
      @chewar7537 Před 5 měsíci

      I agree, they are absolutely horrible!!!!

    • @kristinjayne6720
      @kristinjayne6720 Před 3 měsíci

      Why on earth would you use bowed or warped tiles?

    • @stuffsethmakes
      @stuffsethmakes  Před 3 měsíci

      seriously! 🤣🤣

      If your tiles are warped and bowed, that is your problem my friend, not these spacers.
