“How much did I buy a tile for?” I asked a friend. Answers: "I do it myself." Do you like
When he showed the stone-like finish to his wife, she asked how much she would sell for, which means she liked it. This is a matter of taste, but I liked other points, more on them later.
Handicraft production
I came to a friend to help him deal with the electrician, he continues renovation, and showed its finish. It turned out that he makes the tiles himself on a vibrating table, which he demonstrated.
The design is simple, welded tabletop, is on springs that rest on the legs.
The owner says that earlier the role of springs was played by rubber bands, but with springs it is better.
An engine with a pulley is attached to the tabletop, to which a large nut is attached, it sets the vibration when turned on.
Tile
The tile is made from a mixture of gypsum and fixative, familiar says that he mixes it with a whisk in a bucket, and then pours it into molds. Can make 2 squares per day.
I did not ask further, but logically, everything on the table vibrates further and allows it to freeze. At what stage he paints, he was also not interested, can you know? Covers with varnish after installation.
What we liked
In this finish liked that the protected corners, wallpaper in such places quickly deteriorates.
Tiles wide slopes can be trimmed, for which you cannot pick up extras in the store, this is cool, they will not get dirty. It's also good that the general style is set, and different wallpaper or painting will not break it.
