Instead of using a single
one inserted in the cross at the meeting of 4 tiles, I use 4 of
them, each with just one limb poked into each of the 4 gaps
between the tiles, and the rest sticking up above the floor like
little grave markers. This means I can do micro adjustments to
the spacing and make sure ajacent rows stay in sync. When the
tile adhesive is set, I pull the spacers out (the odd one snaps
off, but most come out complete).

I thought that I was the only one who did that. Works well, doesn't
it////

Not only do I do that, I've seen a professional (well, he did I job I'd
never even think of attempting, brilliantly) do it.

I do that as well. Has the added advantage that you can twist the
spacers if you need to incease the spacing.
