 My first time doing tile; pretty happy with the result. 

My favorite part about building a house is the accumulation of proof of work as the build progresses. Satisfaction beyond measure at this point. https://image.nostr.build/919ce8b05160a3c1b4db135b610a3ffe03d980254ea5acda33165a597d07aa3d.jpg

 So satisfying. Great job

 That's kicking ass right there! 
 Pow! Ty🫡 
 I know the feeling and I share the joy. 

Great work. 🤘🏻 
 Ty my man🫡 what’s the last thing you built? 
 A month ago. Outdoor shower in my backyard. Prior, broke down walls, renovated attic, kitchen, pantry, bathrooms… etc.

I don’t stop. 😂 

Wifey always had ideas and I have sweat to donate. 
 So awesome. You do great work. Much respect 🫡 👑 
 Project by project. They all have their firsts which builds confidence for the next. Be proud of your work. 🤘🏻

 There is nothing like building something functional and beautiful. 
 It’s great to rinse a 19 month,

 Beautiful job. You rock 
 Thank you!🫡 
 I used to supervise trades on new builds and that would pass A++ 
 Nice! I’m admittedly slow as fuck 😂 but I’ve never done this particular workflow and I care about doing a good job. So I’ll accept being slow as one of the costs. 
 Nicely done!
I learned to tile from a cousin in the trade when he helped renovate my house. 

It is very rewarding work and gives you a sense of pride of your home. 

Not to mention you also have the knowledge of knowing exactly where you screwed up. #pow 

I've also come to appreciate other tilers work in public too.  
 Yeah I agree with everything you wrote here. It’s so worth the extra time and effort for something beautiful and durable. Low time preference construction ftw
