I had to do some floor leveling for this tile and if I had to do it over again, I'd have been more thorough... but it's fine.

Get a tape measure, a speed square, and a circular saw... and a hammer and pry bar.

And just buy whatever tools you need as you go. Don't be intimidated by home depot.

- Yeah. I've got a house, i can do basic fixing work, paiting and deck. I worked with a friend for a couple of year's. But the business died in 2016.
I used to make good rolimãs when young.

I once heard a laid saying that no man like's to make heavy work. I probably wond't like if i had to mix concret everyday. But seen a house or a garden transforming, and the satisfaction on people face is worth every sweat. And the fact that can last year's.

An impact drill... You'd want to learn how to mud. It's a lot of stuff but it's all kind of the same in a way.

I wouldn't want to mix concrete every day either. My nostrils/airways are a little messed from this tile job. Dust from mixing mortar and cutting tile has taken a toll. I know actual masons that lay brick have a lot of respiratory issues.

Sun doesn't cause cancer. They have no fucking clue what causes cancer.
