Tile installation biscuit system

Abstract

A tile installation biscuit system including a tile measuring component having a body including at least one perforation. The tile measuring component is configured to be laid on an existing surface to measure at least one angle. The at least one perforation is configured to be folded to match the at least one angle and a user then removes a removeable-portion of the body to provide a template to trace tile and cut the tile to match the at least one angle when over-laid on the tile.

What is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims: 
     
         1 . A tile installation biscuit system comprising:
 a tile measuring component having;
 a body including;
 at least one perforation; 
 
   wherein said tile measuring component is configured to be laid on an existing surface to measure at least one angle; and   wherein said at least one perforation is configured to be folded to match said at least one angle and a user then removes a removeable-portion of said body to provide a template to trace tile and cut said tile to match said at least one angle when over-laid on said tile.   
     
     
         2 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body is a planar sheet. 
     
     
         3 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 2 , wherein said body is semi-flexible such that said body is able to be folded. 
     
     
         4 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 3 , wherein said body is folded at said at least one perforation. 
     
     
         5 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body is recyclable. 
     
     
         6 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body is disposable. 
     
     
         7 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body comprises a material selected from the group consisting of paper, cardboard, and paper-like material. 
     
     
         8 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body comprises said removeable-portion, said removeable-portion being separated by said at least one perforation. 
     
     
         9 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said removeable-portion is configured to be removed when said at least one perforation is folded at a desired said at least one angle. 
     
     
         10 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said removeable-portion of said body is configured to snap-off at said at least one perforation. 
     
     
         11 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said removeable-portion of said body is configured to be cut off at said at least one perforation. 
     
     
         12 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said body comprises a substantially similar surface area to said tile. 
     
     
         13 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 12 , wherein said tile comprises a shape which is selected from the group consisting of a square, a rectangle, and an irregular shaped said tile. 
     
     
         14 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said tile further comprises stone. 
     
     
         15 . The tile installation biscuit system of  claim 1 , wherein said at least one perforation provides a clean-break when said removeable-portion is removed. 
     
     
         16 . A tile installation biscuit system, the tile installation biscuit system comprising:
 a tile measuring component having;
 a body including;
 at least one perforation; 
 
   wherein said tile measuring component is configured to be laid on an existing surface to measure at least one angle;   wherein said body is a planar sheet;   wherein said body is semi-flexible such that said body is able to be folded;   wherein said body is folded at said at least one perforation;   wherein said body is disposable;   wherein said body comprises said removeable-portion, said removeable-portion being separated by said at least one perforation;   wherein said removeable-portion is configured to be removed when said at least one perforation is folded at a desired said at least one angle;   wherein said removeable-portion of said body is configured to snap-off at said at least one perforation;   wherein said removeable-portion of said body is configured to be cut off at said at least one perforation;   wherein said body comprises a substantially similar surface area to said tile;   wherein said at least one perforation provides a clean-break when said removeable-portion is removed; and   wherein said at least one perforation is configured to be folded to match said at least one angle and a user then removes a removeable-portion of said body to provide a template to trace tile and cut said tile to match said at least one angle when over-laid on said tile.   
     
     
         17 . A method of measuring tile, the method comprising the steps of:
 providing a tile measuring component having;
 a body including;
 at least one perforation; 
 
   placing said tile measuring component on an existing surface;   measuring at least one angle;   folding said body at said at least one perforation to match said at least one angle;   removing a removeable-portion;   overlaying said tile measuring component on a tile; and   cutting said tile to match a shape of said tile measuring component.
