I did most of the removal while my Hubby had the backbreaking chore of lugging all of the debris down to the garage. Using the hammer drill (with the spade bit attached) we removed all of the tile (which I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to remove), then we separated the concrete from the lath by inserting the spade bit between the two layers, then we pulled up the lath which was held in place with staples (instead of screws which you would most likely see in older homes), then pulled up the tar paper which was also stapled down. We found that removing the floor in layers was the easiest and fastest way to go: Also, you MUST wear eye protection and a face mask, I would also recommend earplugs and something to cover your hair as well… did I mention how dirty this job was? We used our hammer drill with the spade bit attached for the entire job, I would HIGHLY recommend this tool as it made removing all of these layers a ton easier. Starting with the base there is OSB, tar paper, metal lath, concrete, mortar then tile.
We had already started some updates like wallpaper removal you can checkout here.Īfter removing my vanity we discovered that the floor tile was set in a bed of concrete and lath and it was roughly 1.5” thick… that’s a LOT of concrete and mainly why we didn’t want to tackle this ourselves. I’m not going to sugar coat this for you… this is a sucky, messy job, but totally a DIY one if you’re willing…Īgain, this is what the bathroom looked like just before we moved in. I had every intention of hiring the contactor to do this, but the feedback I was getting for the costs were more than I was willing to spend on demo. This weekend we decided to tackle removing the tile floor from the bathroom. By the time you mine the map out, you are either done with the game or getting infinite resources from space, or don't need non-space materials anymore.You might remember that we are in the beginning stages of a remodel of our master bathroom and closet. Maybe they will add a better skill or a new mining tool you have to build, but I don't really see the point in the state of the game. Too bad you can't do this with non-liquifiable blocks (dirt, sand, slime, etc). You would probably cool small amounts in quantities that would be useful. If you want to make a soda can, you wouldn't cool 1000kg of aluminum to make it. You will need to come up with a better cooling solution to prevent to large of blocks being formed. If you let 1000kg of molten metal to solidify in one block, you will lose materials. I think most things do look like a pile of dust though.Īlso, it forces you to use better methods to collect things like molten metals. Of course, this would be a pile of dust instead of ingots, but it's a game. If you really want to go down the rabbit hole, imagine the mining gun destroying every other molecule to detach them from each other. You pay the price in materials lost for convenience, just like the granulator.
If you have a 1000kg solid tile and shoot it with a space gun to break it up into something they can carry (pretty sure a dupe can carry 1T, but let's ignore that), you lose 50%. (get 50% refined and 50% useless pulverized dust, basically)
Well, if you take a look at the rock granulator, you can kinda get the idea. Make a side pool of cooling water, set a bit to be pumped at a time, and suddenly it's raining refined metal. The starting pump's "straw" has no heat limitation, and the liquid emptying machine doesn't either, and it pours out at less than 200kg a second. That said "pure" harvesting is even more silly. I believe you can go up to 200kg and maintain the nugget block status. I just assumed the rest was destroyed since the dupes dig with a ghost busters esque laser.ītw, in tune with your experiment, the best way to harvest gold/copper/iron volcanoes uses this idealogy. Still, losing half of everything has always been odd and over harsh. When cooled, it's either a small enough amount it doesn't matter, or it's large enough that it does. The experiment shows what you want in that example, yes, but because the amount of impurities you can fit in 100kg vs 1100kg is vastly different. Like I said, I believe the intent was to impliment a mechanic where a higher digging skill showed not just speed, but more accurate and skilled digging which would preserve more of what you're trying to keep. I agree with you that it's an odd choice.
