Thank you! it is the only video that clearly illustrate how to use wingits. helpful!
Great job! I’ve been sitting on the same project but I have ceramic tiles.
Wingits sells a special self centering carbide bit for installing in tile and other wall coverings. Much better than that hole saw you are using.
Good video, some more tips. Tape the escutcheons to the bar so they wont rattle around. If you have the templates just measure from the inside of one flange to the outside of the other than transfer the measurement with a level to the wall and center the template centers over the marks. No need to try to mark all the holes while trying hold a bar in place. If drilling with an arrowhead bit the holes are undersized and it can be a real bear to get the anchors through the holes. Don’t try to pound the anchor in, will crack the tile. May need to enlarge the holes so the anchors don’t get stuck. Be sure to buy the wing-its that are made for the wing-it bars. The standard stand alone wing-its anchors plastic “covers” don’t have off center holes and the escutcheons wont cover the anchors. You’ll have to trim the plastic to fit under the escutcheons. Not easy to do.
