Enjoy my work, movie and music.

All details are here:

Step 1 : cut wood in desired size 1,5-12cm

Step 2: put basic tile glue on small area of concrete floor (be sure that glue on that area is wet all the time if not moist it with water and brush) and start putting wood mosaic on the glue

Step 3: fill the gaps between the wood with mix of concrete, fine sand and water (1concrete:3sand). Consistency should be watery, make sure that you stir the mass every time you use it

Step 4: let the room air dry 24h ( room temperature should be at least 20 degrees of celsius)

Step 5: polish the top coat with floor polishing machine (concrete can be a bit moist but can not be fully dry)

Step 6: polish corners with hand polishing machine and go all through to get rid of imperfections

Step 7: let the floor air dry for 2 weeks

Step 8: lacquer the floor with parquet varnish (3layers)

What I would do differently now?
After second step I would lacquer all the floor with varnish to avoid that wood absorbs water. Then air dry the floor and start step 3.

Thanks for watching this video.
