Our penny floor
zhlédnutí 486KPřed 10 lety
Our penny floor in the kitchen. Start to finish in a little over a week. We used liquid nails from a caulking tube. Just spread it out with a small adhesive spreader. Used an unsanded grout. Then sealed with polyurethane.

    Are the cents, not pennies, being used composed of Cu, or Zn?

    Around 1:08 to 1:15 I see what it appears to be the star but then it flashes and disappears to the blank floor again and then begin building the star again but what is the star made out of and was that like trick photography or doing something with the video to have it appear and disappear?

    My apartment has a small kithchen and it's floor is made of pennies. The problem is HOW do you keep it clean? I now have three large areas that have turned almost greenish, and I have NO idea how to get them out. Does anyone PLEASE have ANY idea how to get them out? I have not put anything on the floor, such as cleansers, so I have no idea what to do. HELP, please !!!

    • @harryjansen6990
      @harryjansen6990 Před 6 lety

      If the floor was merely "pennied" and then grouted without sealing over the top, you can try an electric auto type buffer and use a metal polish like Brasso. You could also use an automotive metal polish. Buff using the polish until you get the desired degree of shine and then buff off the residue to polish it further.

      how many 1943 steel pennies do you want to buy for $50 each? I'll sell you a bucket full. Before you say "only certain ones", I'll go ahead and say that it doesn't matter what kind. if it's a 1943 steel penny, it's not worth much at all. 1943 copper, yes. 1944 steel, yes. 1943 steel, no.

      Yes, technically no. But no different than the machines that cost you a couple bucks, insert a penny and it flattens it while imprinting something else. You see these machines at tourist sites all over. I doubt you would be put in jail for it. The penny itself is still legal tender. You just took it out of circulation.

      Section 331 of Title 18 of the United States code provides criminal penalties for anyone who “fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the Mints of the United States.” No, it's not illegal. The law forbids mutilation, alteration, etc for fraudulent purposes. If you're not trying to commit fraud by creating your masterpiece, tile on!
