Hi Everyone
On Saturday I have to remove 119 Ceramic Tiles which have been glued to
Sheet Rock any suggestions of how to remove them without damaging the Sheet
rock to much.
These are on our splash back the tiles are going to be dumped.
What tool do you use for prizing them off without punching
Ray,
I have removed them with a wide putty knife, without much damage. In places
where it is hard to get the knife in, I would gently break out one of the tiles.

Hi Ray;
i just use a flat pry bar and tap it flat against the wall against
the tile. The bar wont break the wall, but the tile may pull a little. I
did my kitchen when I moved into this house and the entire 11 by 20 foot
kitchen was floor to ceiling tile. A friend walked into to it for

Ray,
If it were me I would just remove the underlying sheet rock as well. It
would be much less complicated and odds are you won't be able to remove the
tiles without damaging the sheet rock anyway. It isn't that hard to replace
sheet rock so you'd be ahead in the long run. And possibly you

Just an associated question,
I have never found it very effective or efficient to try to follow lines or
drawings or score marks with a saw. If deeply enough etched I can generally
get the tip of a chisel accurately into it but otherwise, following with a
saw and even planing down to it once
actually the street for crayon in Philadelphia is crown.

if you go really slowly, and don't mind go really slowly, you can give the
saber saw little bursts, and keep checking and checking and do it. But
that's an afternoon that requires at least a beer or two with dinner
after.
It doesn't hurt to set the speed of the saber saw low either..

Well what is nice about this raise drawing is the lines are raise so you can
feel them on the paper so what I did is taped the paper to the board and
with my small scroll saw I can follow the line. The scroll saw is a real
small table type. Also with this small scroll saw I can actually touch

Dale, I've tried on many occasions to follow a pattern and can't do it.
I tend to be somewhat impatient, and it's possible I guess that I run my jig
saw too fast.

Well Mates now that you're all ID'd
the ID Mate is a bar code reader with an attached box that records, on flash
memory cards, whatever you want and relates it to each bar code you show it.
So you can either read existing codes on products, or put lables
they sell on stuff and record names

Hi Rob,
I know what a scroll saw is and what it looks like, I've just never been
partial to putting my finger anywhere near a moving blade, jigsaw or
otherwise.

of those blades while chopping up meat at the local
