Summer kitchen reno setting the tile

[ki11ergreens]

WoW! These guys suck at Tile. Sorry Guys, thumbs down!

[Speaksforthetrees]

Ye-Haa! .

Nice choice of tile dewd.

[marthale7]

I would of thought you would do the floor last... as you still have to do all of the walls etc.. do you plan on putting down cardboard to protect the new floor? It does make it look soo much better.

[HomesteadAcres]

well in our case we get him to come when he is avalible but yes idealy the floor should be one of the last things

[heml0ck01]

Thats looking really good

[HomesteadAcres]

thanks alot

[medievalman86]

when we were tiling our house, thats how we did it- with the spacers.... we have a little hand tool device, that is shaped like a razor at the end, but it is basically diamond encrusted steel... basically, it sands the glue once it dries.

[HomesteadAcres]

yeh i almost bought one but my buddy said the knives work better seems to be ok

[Ejahi]

that tile looks great. But how do you think it will feel walking shoeless on a floor like that in the winter months? Dou think it will hold the cold?

[BeanIrene]

I don't believe it will be used in the winter months. I think in the first video he did he said that it was all for summer and warmer months use. And seriously, you can always get flip flops, slippers or socks!

[backwoodsminuteman]

Looks nice. Good to see a project advacning liek that gives a real sense of accomplishment. Good Job.

[HomesteadAcres]

thanks im looking forward to finishing it

[theGHETTOMAN1]

Lookin GOOD! ; D I've seen people use JUST thin set on tiles (no grout). MOST resaurants have the 1/4 inch+ thick quarry tiles.They're spaced 1/8 - 1/4 inch apart. HAHA You'd have to drop a V8 car block on it to break it.! Industrial flooring 101.lol Awesome.

[HomesteadAcres]

cool thanks

[scorpio0808]

Tell your buddy to remove the extra thin-set motar out of the grout line with one of the spaces and flick it to the side, wipe edge of tile clean with a finger. Save him self lots of scrapping later :)

[HomesteadAcres]

yeh that woud work

[yesiamanalien]

The summer kitchen is coming along nicely. I can tell it's gonna be beautiful when it's done. If it's done before late January I'll get to see it, otherwise I'll have to wait till maybe mid summer :( (moving in late January and won't have net for a few months or so).

[HomesteadAcres]

we hope to have it done before that when you get back on pm us cheers

[tsiemens]

To the guy who said you can use grout and not glue (sarcastically) it was partially white thin set mortar, not grout

[DeltaBluesClassics]

Make sure you do something nice for your friend. That's really cool of him to put in that amount of time and labor. The floor is coming along nicely.

[HomesteadAcres]

we actualy do alot of bartering back and forth it works well

[Lepiratepoulpe]

I did not know that you could use grout instead of glue....

[DannysCam]

what a summer kitchen?

[BeanIrene]

A kitchen to use in the summer so that it doesn't heat up the main part of the house. It is an older "practice" in time. Best for houses without any cooling devices.

[biggdaddy2001]

hey home stead when ur done u should post all of the remodel vids in fast forward to see it all unfold at once from demo to rebuild

[HomesteadAcres]

that is a realy good idea man if i do that i will put your name in as your idea thanks!!

[ExmoorMist]

This is going to make a great job!

[HomesteadAcres]

thanks

[travisjeanelle]

Looking awesome. I did a house once had 18x18 tile and it was imported from spain and cost $125 a tile and they bought the right amount talk about nerve rattling trying to make sure no tiles break or get cut wrong.

[HomesteadAcres]

wow thats alot of cash 125 per tile i wouldnt want to cut them thats for sure

[travisjeanelle]

Yeah glad I didnt have to pay for them and lucky we didnt break on of them and when we were done with the floor there was only one left over.

[HomesteadAcres]

my buddys here what kind of tile was it some kind of granet??

[travisjeanelle]

Yeah cant remember what it was call but was some kinds a spanish rock. It looked like marble but browns and reds in it.

[2010purple]

Your wife will love her kitchen when this is all finished...

[HomesteadAcres]

yes she is egerly waiting

[MadSmokerBBQ]

heh, I thought this house was in Reno Nevada at first.

[Michigansnowpony]

This is so exciting to watch unfold! Thanks for taking us along guys.

[HomesteadAcres]

thanks for watching our vids

[FMF666]

thats some really nice tile!

[HomesteadAcres]

thanks it was about the $2 range

[bcbackrider]

Love the price! Even I could afford that! This is to be the way of the future, everyone is good at something. Help out others when needed and they will help you. The underground economy at it's finest. HST, what HST...

[BeanIrene]

My mom and I both feel very strongly we should go back to the bartering and trading systems between people in communities. But sadly, so many others feel that we should just pay for everything...

[HomesteadAcres]

HST harmonised sales tax

[mbyr31]

The best part of this video is the beginning of the title!!! "Summer"... It's my new favorite word again!! LOL....

It's coming along great!!! Lookin good there bud!

[MadSmokerBBQ]

Awesome house!!! 159 years old, sweet!!!

[58belvedere]

nice but that will be cold on the feet!!

[bcarbaugh]

The only thing with a woodstove and tile like that,if you drop a log will it break the tile? I drop them all the time trying to carry in arm fulls.

[HomesteadAcres]

thats a good piont but personaly ive never head that and the tile under our other stove seems ok gota love it when you drop it on your foot lol

[bcarbaugh]

Yeah that happens to,almost dropped one on my cat one day lol!!

[BasicInstructionsBLE]

Gonna look great when it's done! Especially with the stove in and going.
