First of all I laid the tile out, to see where and how it will go. Pretty square room. Not to many cuts are needed.
Now I have been going along pretty good. But here I ran out of tile set. Okay the gallon tells me I should have enough to do 25 to 35 sq ft?
This room is only 36 sq ft.
By God's grace when I went to buy the Durock, thinking why not pick up one more gallon? This way if I don't use it I can bring it back.
Okay now how am I going to cut these tiles? Well the first one I cut it dry and it cracked. So asking Lord help me? So I got a milk crate and hooked this up. It worked well. Except when the sun came over to the other side of the house. I had a change to work on my tan too. But it still worked good.
Okay you got to be kidding. I am almost out of tile set again? I didn't want to take a chance putting down one more tile. I saw my neighbor outside (Roy) I ask, by chance do you have any tile set? He told maybe? He went and looked and there was enough in there to finish the job. A lot of it was hard already in the container. Praise the Lord. Roy was telling me that he has used Hard As Nails caulk too. I do have some of that too. But I had enough tile set.
This is my first tile job I have ever done on my own. I have always had people around me helping or showing me stuff. I am very blessed to say today I will grout and prayerfully get the vanity and toilet in later on today.
Praise Him today and you will not regret it.
