If you have customers that money is no option and want to pay a lot more to have the tile installed using this system that is great but its not for the average customer. It would slow down the job, plus the price of the system. would cost way to much for the average customer.. To use this system you have to have high end customers who are willing to pay extra

They look good, I think I will be using them for my upcoming bathroom remodel

These left marks on our Roca high gloss porcelain tiles. Literally scratched them where the wedge was.

Any tips on removing the ones that break about at the tile surface instead of where they should break below the tile surface?

Do you guys like Goboard? And what type of sealant you used on the seams? Thank you in advance!

My tile guy used these in our bathroom. I had not seen them before. Video very informative.

every video on this and other leveling systems show the last row of tile being set, or halfway through. How about a detailed but concise video showing first 12x24 tile and row with this system and how to get it right and tie into second and third row, I imagine this would actually be most important, just a suggestion. there seems to be no such video or instructions in the universe!! lol

I've used the Spin Doctor system a couple times on bathroom jobs and while it was definitely beneficial - the posts are not strong.  Like you I gravitate toward Ardex thinset and while the pot life is great it does tend to set up pretty fast once it's down.  Couple that with the weight of the 12x24 porcelain customers often want and the vacuum that creates when the ridges collapse, when I'd go back to crank down the spinners on the last row, it was often more resistance than the poles could handle.

I'm eager to try T-Lock next time.

What size would you recommend for 12 x 24 porcelain tile

So with this system on floors, you no longer need to float the floor so much and can sit tight to the floor using less mortar ?
