I believe the manufacturer says the heating elements shouldn't be closer than 1 inch. The mat is 24 inches across

The beauty of this product is that you can attain numerous configurations; including yours. The heating cables must be kept3 inches apart and never overlap. This is key and as long as you follow this rule you will be in good shape. Also, remember where your powercable is coming from when you start. You will need to run through a GFI outlet ( I had to install a new one). Warming systems includes pretty good instructions for installation of your mat.

Minimum width...well, I've trimmed some pretty narrow strips off of 4" ceramic tile. I've trimmed some to 3 1/2" wide (1/2" of waste). When I get that close I've used nippers to break off the waste end because I can't really get a "bite" on a strip that narrow. A 1 1/2" strip, though, piece of cake! By the way, be sure to get a stone to finish your cut ends and to 'break' the edges. Cut tiles can be sharp!

Yes - We cut the mesh on our mat and curved the wire around like an S to continue the mat.

Brian,For the 6X9 negatives, I use the style 120-4B. It fits 2 across just fine. Total of 8 per sheet.ThanksDavid

I recently installed about 1,500 sq. ft. of this product. I found trimming straight lines to work best on a table saw with finish-type blade (lots of small teeth on blade). The saw provides a very clean cut edge. For a small job a heavy-duty utility knife and a straight edge will work...but it takes some effort and several passes with a sharp knife to finally get through the tiles. A fine-tooth jig saw also works, but requires a straight edge for cutting.

Think of the size area you want to cover. It doesn't have to meet in each corner. You can use rope and plan ahead if you want to maybe later install more. The measurements are the size of the material. I hope this helps.

Outline the smaller radius the use a metal cutting circular saw blade. That's how I did it

See if you can find smaller wire nuts at a local hardware store. Also route the wires in smooth straight paths so they dont cross each other and things will take up less space and may fit better. Crossed wire paths take up a lot of space.

use BlockTile R0US5112 Interlocking Ramp Edges Without Loop, and BlockTile R1US5112 Interlocking Ramp Edges with Loop. And all the edges will be clean and nice. There is no need to trim anything.

The ruler is 40". And, just a side note...if you haven't used this system before I HIGHLY recommend it! I do a great deal of my own framing and I would not be without this system. It comes with extra blades and the finished product is indistinguishable from a professional job (which is expensive). I have created both single and double mats with special cuts using what is pictured and had excellent results. Very happy with this purchase, it is a great system!

All 6 pieces are interlocking on all 4 sides. There are 10 separate edge pieces. The edge pieces have one side interlocking and one side flat. You can also cut this stuff if you need it to fit an odd-sized space. I use mine as a 6' x 4' area mat, but left one edge piece off to accommodate a protruding appliance. I could have cut the interlocking part of that section to make it flat, but I left it as is because it doesn't show.

I dont quite understand question. If you want to do a corner mat, you should be able to fit the pieces together. Hope this helps.

I believe you are talking about the width. You would cut a length from the roll as high as you want it on the wall (30" or whatever) and hang multiple strips side by side around the room. I did the bottom half of a 4x8 powder room with one roll.

I shortened mine by first marking where the cut needed to be and making the cut with a large utility knife. The other option would be with a Hacksaw, either should do the job. If you do a search on the internet "best method for cutting wiremold" you should get some results/feedback on the subject.

I use a block of wood that is about six inches long, clamp it to the bottom edge, and place the jig against it. Do the same at the back to get the same spacing.
