/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>2713008
Yes I know, talc is soft. I'm not worried about scratches or wearing as long as it'll last about 100y without outright failing. I like it's workability so I can fabricate the slabs to size on site and also make counters/sink/backsplash
It seems like there aren't many people that carry it and everyone just stocks marble, granite, porcelain, corrian etc.
I like stone for its imperfections and character (same with wood) which is why all the clone/fake materials bother me so much. Marble-like, x-like etc just makes me irrationally angry.
What do you use for clips? I've seen one product for mounting large field tiles on ceilings where you router out the back and install mounting hardware but was just a cursory search. I wanted to do soapstone slabs on the ceiling too but my wife was worried about the stone of Damocles making the room feel too small. Probably true.
How much work to resurface a 100sq ft floor, is it something I can rent the polisher and do myself? The shower would be curbless so I'd have to cut the showerpan slab into trapezoids to make it slope to the drain so it wouldn't be flat like a floor in there. Pic unrelated

Is ABC stone legit? They have some nice looking slabs.
