running bond on diagonal

[kevjob]

just got a job with 13x13 porcelain running bond on diagonal and was wondering about layout. long narrow kitchen 4feet wide 15feet long anyone ever lay this floor?

On something like that i just snap my 45 deg. lines,and use a gauge,a cut piece of tile or my tape measure to set my brick pattern pieces to put down the field.

What Dave say's. The guage will keep it all looking uniform.

Only other thing I could offer is.....along the long wall[cabinet wall?],use fulls and halves,IF, your layout will permit decent sized pieces in other areas too.

the long wall is cabinets for 8 feet then steps back 24 inches and thats wher the fridge and eating area. was going to try to lay from the center out. walls not square thanks guys

If the walls are out of square really bad, I'd think it would look funny haveing all different size pieces running down there.

I get my one diagonal line in the middle, then ignore the walls & use only that line & treat it like a square lay floor for laying out grids or lines. Bond pattern doesn't require many lines. Here's a pic:
