Dottie- You are one creative MoFo....I must admit, I usually find myself jealous. That post was funny.

I think I am under the influence of all the cement dust I inhaled today...I am remodeling the cave..and actually doing some kind of drainage channel system....water just started running across the floor...I think it has something to do with the new foundations for the barn and now the water that used to drain in one direction is seeping in from the base of the rock wall....so I'm just helpin it find its way out...but I'm a mess...

Dottie- As A tilesetter, I want to warn you that concrete, especially concrete dust contains silica particles. So, please where a respirator, and stay healthy my friend.

Thanks for the advice. I do use a dust mask, but working in the confined space of the cave makes me think I should be using something more industrial. I got another few hours today...but the messy work is done.
I do a lot of work with tile. I just bought all of these very cool italian tiles...they have a glaze that makes them look like stainless steel. I want to redo the kitchen counters after christmas,. j'adore le carrelage!

Dottie- I would love to include tilesetting in my eventual European tour. I am very curious how things are done in another country.

At Home Depot, you can purchase a respirator, with dust cartridges, or chemical cartridges. I'm not sure what they have in France, but I'm sure they have them.

Will you use concrete boards for your countertop substrate?

J'aime trop de tuiles.

Have a Merry Christmas buddy.

last comment here...i think...we have brico depot, which is the same thing as home depot...same graphics, layout same company....it's like going to disneyland for me. i got the tiles from a tile company outside of brive la gaillarde. yes I will redo the substrate, that's basically why i am re doing the counters. I built them almost 10 years ago using a "water proof" composite counter surface....I got water damage in back of the sink....so we are replacing the sink as well....a little home improvement!
Have a great Christmas, man!
