    Tyler just a heads up, the toilet valve looks to be a threaded type. So you do have some options and I would suggest to use the ball type not gate type of shut off valve since the gate type will eventually stick (sometimes) then when you go to shut it off then it can start to leak. Anyway, after replacing all my gate type shut off valves with the ball type (they do make them nice chrome so they don't look any different) it makes toilet or faucet repairs so much easier.

    The colder the water the slower it sets, and more open time. And you need diamond grit hole saws for porcelain tile. The laser is cool but it's quite easy to just measure over and make a pencil mark on the set tile to line up your next one.

      Hi:
      1) How many hours did it take you to do this floor?
      2) How many hours do you think it would take a guy who has never laid tile to do the same job?
      3) Is it easier to tile with 4x4 inch tiles rather than those much larger pieces you used? What are the pros and cons of using smaller tiles vs larger pieces. (Some tile is 24x48 inches! And $50-$80 each, so I would hate to damage those. And it seems it would be difficult to use a tile saw with such large pieces.
      4) when laying travertine should I fill in all the tiny holes with grout or leave them open?
      5) could someone use a pastry bag with the grout? And squeeze the grout into place? So you don't have to wash that grout haze off--- like 4 or 5 times. It seems a never ending process to get the tile clean at the end. Any tips on that, getting the tile clean? So you aren't washing the floor over and over and over!
      6) if tiling a shower should the tiles be a different size on the floor vs the walls? Style wise, would it look better? What would you do in your shower: Use different size tiles on the floor and walls, or use the same size on both surfaces?
      Thanks a bunch for your insights!
