    Please don't forget to wear a mask; Silicosis is a terrible thing. You produce beautiful work and hope you can for a long time.

    That no-curb action with a curved transition to pebble....dope.

    That's pretty much everything you need to know right there! I really want to do a pebble floor like you have a 2:46, cut into the main floor tile... Hopefully someone will call who wants one. That corner you did with the profile on the outside it's just like, set your guide and rip all those outside corner wrapped ones at the same time. I always put those up when we do them. Cool video my friend.

    on a different note -- can you wipe extra silicone from quartz with acetone? I hear mixed opinions on that...I would really appreciate your sharing your expert knowledge on that. Thank you!!

    I think I would have secured the track for the track saw. Even a mm of movement and you're out 7 at the other end. Not to mention the saw marks on the edge.

    hello isaac, sorry to ask this in an unrelated video but have a question on existing wall tile removal. i usually remove old tile with a hammer and just bang channels in sections then pry both the tile and duroc together but would love to use a power tool like angle grinder. i tried an angle grinder with sponge and water but is messy, so have you found an angle grinder with dustless schroud that works good or any power tool that uses a dustless shroud that works? i do alot of showers and i hate banging on walls and just wish there were an easier way.. thank you for any info

    I need some advise and I know I can get a straight answer from you…. Specifically I am setting a marble mosaic on a shower floor, over Kerdi pan. I am on the fence about using Schluter all set for this or an unmodified thinset. Can you tell me what you would do in this case? Walls are covered, but I’m stuck on the floor. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    You must not have heard about the lawsuits and suffering in the quartz fabricating industry from the dust. It's real, it's severe, and it's deadly. The whole industry is retraining for safety. Don't regret changing your health, clear lungs for wheezing like an old man or dying of cancer or mesothelioma, etc. At least think of those who are copying you. Think of their kids.

    I know that right now you're young and indestructible, as I once thought I was, but now at 60 I have COPD/emphysema from not wearing a respirator. I thought it was too uncomfortable, esp in the Florida heat in summer. That dust doesn't dissolve or totally expel from your lungs and the cost to your health in later years isn't worth it.

      It's a hard thing to force yourself to do. I would tell myself it's just a quick cut or that my mask wasn't handy or that it only happens to other people. Not careful, healthy people like me.
      Famous last words as they say. Fortunately for me I didn't work with materials such as stone, ceramic or imitation marble on a regular basis so my damage is limited. Just wanted to offer a cautionary tale for those who may watch your great videos. And thanks for posting! I've learned and enjoyed them greatly.

      A quick cut once in a while, outdoors with a bit of wind: completely fine. The issue is that this guy is probably doing these quick cuts every day => wear a mask, the risk isn't worth it
