Is there a pattern for...

Patio flagstones (slabs), concrete flags, stone flags including yorkstone and imported flagstones.

600 x 600 - 450 x 450 - 300 x 300 - 600 x 300 flags. I have seen a pettern on here for 5 sizes one of which I don't have but may buy.

Cheers.

:D You put the flag im missing 450 x 600. The guy I bought these moulds off said there was a pattern with the sizes I have. I don't like metric too lol. I thought all people talked metric these days.

Looking at that pattern again, maybe I could make a pettern with a 600 x 600.

I made a pettern but I had to put the 450 x 450s in pairs but it looks kinda random.

Being pedantic but a true random pattern shouldn't contain any joints that form a +
Perhaps Tony McC can help

I had Tony do my 'L' shape patio, It was pretty straight forward using 4 sizes and I could've probably done it myself but I thought as I was saving £1000's on labour I could afford £60 on a design.
It took away any worry of the possibility that things could go wrong half way through the job. Nothing worse then a pile of sand/cement going off cos you've run into an unforeseen problem.

I need to get a riven squaring off kit for that star circle but the york circle I have the other ring + squaring off kit.

They look good. But won't the pointed rays on the sundial be weak and snap over time? Not pissing on your parade by the way, it's just a question/query

Im thinking of paving my drive with that star circle to test it. It might look good but its no good if it is going to crack over time.
