Cutting the porcelain tile for the laundry room is Cutting the porcelain tile for the laundry room is remarkably easy with a tile saw. I had so many questions about this Tile Saw I user, and honestly, I’m not a tile saw expert, I have only used a few in my life, so there are tons on the market I haven’t used. This Ridgid model though really was a solid saw- the cuts stayed square and incredibly clean, and the water pump worked really well. I liked the miter gauge, and thought the stand was good too. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase it if I needed another, thankfully I borrowed this one from my Dad. Have y’all had good luck with your tile saw? * * * #saturdayvibes #tile #tilesaw #tilecutting #tiler #tilework #install #laundryroom #porcelain #porcelaintile #shop #diy #renovation #renovationproject #diyordie #flooring #teamridgid #ridgidtools #ridgidpowertools
Are y’all fans of templates? To me templates are Are y’all fans of templates? To me templates are the way to go when trying to keep repeatable spacing on projects. Here I was drilling holes to mount threaded inserts to attach the table legs on this Epoxy and Mahogany Desk. Can you measure and drill each hole? Sure you can! But,?with extra scrap material laying around all the time this saves significant time and I find them to be more accurate to boot! What do y’all use Templates for? * * * The Kobalt Drills auxiliary handle is a solid bonus, and something we don’t see on standard Drill Drivers often. I found this to be a really good addition that is really useful when you need the extra accuracy and precision. @kobalttools @loweshomeimprovement * * * #template #tips #tricks #woodworking #drill #epoxy #maker #makerlife #makersofig #makersofinstagram #woodworkers #woodworking #woodworkersofig #woodworkersofinstagram #womenwoodworkers #femalewoodworkers #kobalttools #lowes #toolgirlsgarage #shop #woodshop #epoxy #epoxyriver #rivertable
The Barn Door project is finished, and once I can The Barn Door project is finished, and once I can get a hair caught up you’ll see the full step by step guide to how I assembled and designed this door! When I started playing around with the Bender Board to make the design, I knew I wanted to keep it simple with basic cuts that anyone could do, while still giving a ton of “wow” factor. I used my @harttoolsusa 10 -Inch Miter Saw to cut all of the pieces and glued and nailed them to the door. I am still in awe every time I open this door that it came together as well as it did! Are y’all fans of the design?! * * * As a #harttoolspartner I am able to share my thoughts on some of their latest tools! All opinions are my own, and a huge thank you to them for supporting this project!! * * * #doitwithhart #woodwork #barndoor #door #details #woodworkersofig #woodworkersofinstagram #makersofig #makersofinstagram #diy #diyordie #farmhouse #modernfarmhouse #walnut #wood #woodshop #home #renovations #renovate #texaswoodworkers #womenwoodworkers #build #girlpower
Sooo much grout! Today was spent trying to finish Sooo much grout! Today was spent trying to finish up what I could to allow enough time for delivery tomorrow. I have some more work on the mosaic pieces but it’s coming together! I seriously can’t begin to explain how much I miss having a washer and dryer! Thankfully, we’re at the finish line! Hope y’all have had an awesome Wednesday!!! * * * * #skil #skilpowertools #cordless #12V #tile #tilework #laundryroom #toolgirlsgarage #tiling #toolsofthetrade #trades #floor #install #renovate #renovation #renovationproject #diy #dreamhome #home #decor #farmhousestyle #farmhousedecor #farmhousedesign #maker #makersofig #hgtv #design #customhome @ Texas
Another day that totally kicked my butt. I just wr Another day that totally kicked my butt. I just wrapped for the day, 13 solid hours working on this laundry room floor- and a lot of progress was made! I had hoped to finish all of the tile, but I ran out of thin set, so I’ll have to snag some more tomorrow and focus on grouting what’s dry. Also- these mosaics are tedious as all get out- but hopefully it was all worth it! I miss my shop! What are y’all up to this week? * * My #tooltuesday goes out to my @skilpowertools 12V Drill for powering through mixing the Thin Set without skipping a beat! I am a huge fan of @skilpowertools lineup of cordless tools, absolute beast! * * * #skil #skilpowertools #cordless #12V #tile #tilework #laundryroom #toolgirlsgarage #tiling #toolsofthetrade #trades #floor #install #renovate #renovation #renovationproject #diy #dreamhome #home #decor #farmhousestyle #farmhousedecor #farmhousedesign #maker #makersofig #hgtv #design #customhome
Today has been a doozy. You ever want to fall asle Today has been a doozy. You ever want to fall asleep on the job? That’s basically where I am at now. I am completely exhausted, but as they say the show must go on! Monday’s- they’re for the birds. * * If you follow my stories you’ve seen the drama unfold with our laundry room. Long and short- our washer died this weekend- new washer and dryer will be here late this week, so it’s a “well let’s get this done while it’s out of commission anyway” - situation. Today was spent scraping just under 80 st feet of vinyl and adhesive- which was repeatedly exposed to water making it extra sticky. What a mess! We discovered some mold and some other bad decisions the original orders made, but it’s all part of it. * * * #renovate #laundryroom #tile #vinyl #labor #scraping #toolsofthetrade #shop #renovationproject #renovations #maker #makersofig #construction #fixerupper #diy #hgtv #design #makeover #laundryroommakeover #farmhouse #farmhousedecor #farmhousedesign #design #designinspiration
