Sunday came in with a list of things to do. As I was picking up Jason from his friends house I heard the front brake grind. A trip to Auto Zone was in my future. I forgot how many stores were closed on Easter. Costco and target were out. Lucky for me Auto Zone, Kroger, Home Depot and Lowe’s do not have the same religious leanings.
I picked up brakes at Auto Zone, Food at Kroger and I swung over to Home Depot to grab a blade for the jigsaw that would cut my floor tile.
The brake job was pretty straight forward and a short time later I was setting up to get my floor finished. I was hoping it would be the last time for a while I need to set up the tile saw. I got my last two tiles cut to size and then I marked the circle I needed cut out. It was mostly a half circle out of both of them. I grabbed the blade I just picked up and set to work. I might as well have been cutting with wet spaghetti. Off to Lowe’s I go. I needed a diamond blade for porcelain tiles, not a carbide blade.
Now I have both.
On the up side the floor is done. With the tile work behind me, grouting the tiles is next. Something to look forward to.
