Pebble floor- zen for the customer, not the installer. Nice black slate from South Africa. And a nice summer headcold and fever.
Beer and advil, maybe it'll kill me. But I'm not that lucky.

I must be the slowest guy on here reading that someone floated then set 600ft in a day.

we removed tile from the foyer and kitchen, that was floated with slc/thinset.
today we set the rest of the kitchen ,
down another hall and finished the 3rd bedroom.
all the main living area and front dining is grouted.
tomorrow finish grouting, put up some base, caulk and clean up.
1200 sq.ft. with rip up...4 days

Still good man. So when you say floated you mean you used SLC on it.

Brian,
Very nice!
Wish people would put what kind of tile it is though. Maybe we could start putting that in our posts?
