Ya I was thinking the tile route might be faster and easier in long run. Especially with not having the cure time

Where are you getting your marble tile? Only reason I ask is most of the marble tile ive seen is like $5 or $6 a tile. Couple tiles is enough to get a 50lb bag of playsand and a bag of concrete. I like the idea but just not sure theres is such a thing as cheap marble tile. Other thing im thinking is im not sure I want to drop any cash on a wet tile saw. I like the bandsaw you got, that seems to be the best way to frag by looking at things and I wouldnt be cutting tiles up with it.

I guess it depends on what you have more of: time or money. You'll save money making your own disks but it is quite time consuming. I've been struggling to find permanent full time work for the last two years so my choice is obvious. I still have around 30-50lbs of sand that I intend on making into disks so I haven't price shopped or looked for any sales on marble tile yet.

I bought my wet tile saw for $60... my bandsaw cost $280 and I still use both the same amount.

Hmm, well i think im going to try the sand disks because my time is completely worthless to me. Thanks. Ill have to watch for one of those home depot 'blowout the last box of this ugly marble tile' sale.

I was wondering how you did this, there great.

So while im waiting for the disks to cure i started looking at this marble tile idea. Does it matter what type of marble?? Theres a few different marbles at HD.... or mabye its the coloring or design? Im not sure, I just noticed they have the sheets of tiles. 144 tiles around 3/4" square and already cut. around 10$ a sheet isnt too bad. Was just curious on all the different names. Some are also smooth and some are porus. Does this matter?

Why not ask who HD reccomends as an installer. Or find any installer of marble tile.
Then ask this guy for some free throwaways. Pieces left over from cuttings from his last job.

Is marble inert?

Marble tile was recommneded by Borneman in an hour long video about fragging thats floating around the internet. I'm still working my way through another 30+ lbs of sand so I haven't put too much thought into it yet.

Ill have to see if I can track that down and watch it. Im not sure Im going to go through with my disks as its not coral sand and im just usure if the sand is going to be ok in saltwater. Its tested in fresh but there two completely different things. Hence the looking into tile. I wont need much to start so I might give it a go.
