Herringbone vinyl plank

[@jonlambe6530]

when you installed the border, how did you make that and the herringbone connect? Did you glue it down, or was there another way you made sure they would not shift around? I've considered doing something similar here, but I cant figure out how to ensure the border is not loose and creates any gaps in my floor over time.

[@mrfantum1]

This was a glued in material, not a click floating float.

@@mrfantum1 ahh that makes total sense. Thanks for the response!

[@raylim8492]

Nice video 👍 I'm having someone to come over to my house for herringbone installation in 2 weeks time. That however, no one in here (Malaysia) said Vinyl Herringbone (Interlocking) is possible. How do you join the plank at the near end?

[@mrfantum1]

This is a glue down product. But a locking system.

@@mrfantum1 so we have vinyl plank herringbone and want to frame it as you guys have with one plank but there are grooves so do we just glue down the outer edge pieces after cutting the other?

[@mrfantum1]

@@smilejesuslovesyou8108 I think I'm understand what you were asking, yes I would glue them down. Use a track saw our a straight edge to cut the plank. Be very careful. I hear them up a bit just to make it a bit easier to cut through.

@@mrfantum1 thank you so much

That was quick!

[@Tigerratcat]

Why no mitres borders?

[@mrfantum1]

It's the way they wanted it

[@glynnhamer8377]

Was it a filler being applied at the end?

[@mrfantum1]

Yes. This was a very light wood grain and the customer was very concerned about seeing any hairline gaps.

[@catisme726]

I really like the color and type do you have any info on the manufacture? Thanks

[@mrfantum1]

i do believe it has already been discontinued. Sorry

[@rosespearls8605]

Beautiful job! 🙌🏻

[@bsbbossy1]

I'm confused. Is this vinyl plank or ceramic/porcelain tiles? Or am I missing something?

[@mrfantum1]

Vinyl plank

[@cherrybearylemondrop]

It looks like vinyl tile (glue down) but in a long plank shape - no interlocking.

[@JeremyQuintela]

Was this peel and stick vinyl planks?

[@mrfantum1]

No, it was a pressure sensitive adhesive.

What's the welder for?

Welding

[@juniorperez8457]

How did you start?

[@mrfantum1]

I dry for the plank so I know where the tile will end up before I put down the adhesive. Make sure you snap lines at 45 degree to Wall prior to glueing. You can see the lines through the adhesive when it is set.

[@sophiegobel4918]

What's the corded machine for? A heat gun?

[@mrfantum1]

Yes. It was used just to make it easier to cut through the plank.

[@zebbjackson5564]

I saw the fuck up before you fixed it. Was that actually a trick of the trade or just a error?

[@dainiusvigraitis4228]

hi, what size are these planks? thanks

[@MultiFloormaster]

I dont get it. No shoes! No knee pads! How! So unsafe. Floor looks good though.

[@mrfantum1]

not sure how shoes and knee pads have anything to do with safety in a residential home.

Heat gun 👎

[@mrfantum1]

What's wrong with the heat gun

[@creekyknees]

@@mrfantum1 everything it's not needed scribe and template, heating leads to problems at a later date.

[@mrfantum1]

@@creekyknees that would only be an issue if you overheated it. the only reason I heat it up is so that it can be cut little bit easier. I use a leister and turn the temperature really low.

[@creekyknees]

@@mrfantum1 you don't need to heat it at all, I'm not being rude but have you ever been on a training course
