This is a stack of slate waiting to be used as outside patio flooring at my neighbors house. I thought the way the workers had it stacked had a certain eye appeal and decided to take a couple of snaps. I liked the results and thought I would share it with all of you..
Slate is a fine-grained, foliated, homogeneous metamorphic rock derived from an original shale-type sedimentary rock composed of clay or volcanic ash through low grade regional metamorphism. The result is a foliated rock in which the foliation may not correspond to the original sedimentary layering. Slate is frequently grey in colour especially when seen en masse covering roofs. However, slate occurs in a variety of colours even from a single locality. For example slate from North Wales can be found in many shades of grey from pale to dark and may also be purple, green or cyan. Slate is not to be confused with shale, from which it may be formed, or schist.
Chemical composition
Slate is mainly composed of quartz and muscovite or illite, often along with biotite, chlorite, hematite, and pyrite and, less frequently, apatite, graphite, kaolin, magnetite, tourmaline, or zircon as well as feldspar. Occasionally, as in the purple slates of North Wales, ferrous reduction spheres form around iron nuclei, leaving a light green spotted texture. These spheres are sometimes deformed by a subsequent applied stress field to ovoids, which appear as ellipses when viewed on a cleavage plane of the specimen.
Slate in buildings
Slate can be made into roofing slates, also called roofing shingles, installed by a slater[1]. Slate has two lines of breakability: cleavage and grain. This makes it possible to split slate into thin sheets. When broken, slate produces a natural appearance while remaining relatively flat and can be easily stacked. Silicone glue adheres to slate.
Slate tiles are often used for interior and exterior flooring, stairs, walkways, and wall cladding. Tiles are installed and set on mortar and grouted along the edges. Chemical sealants are often used on tiles to improve durability and appearance, increase stain resistance, reduce efflorescence, and increase or reduce surface smoothness. Tiles are often sold gauged, meaning that the back surface is ground for ease of installation. Slate flooring can however be slippery when used in external locations subject to rain. Slate tiles were used in 19th century UK building construction (apart from roofs) and in slate quarrying areas such as Bethesda there are still many buildings wholly constructed of slate. Slates can also be set into walls to provide a rudimentary damp-proof membrane. Small offcuts are used as shims to level floor joists. In areas where slate is plentiful it is also used in pieces of various sizes for building walls and hedges, sometimes combined with other kinds of stone.

We think wood flooring will always be on trends due to the warmth, character it gives to the style of your interior space. Today we talk about the trends in wood flooring this year.
"'Ebnerite' is composed of wood fibre, fine mineral powder, and a cementing fluid. It is laid in a plastic state with a trowel, and solidifies in about 35 hours. It can be used either rough or polished, oiled, and beeswaxed, like a parquet floor."
One of eight pages advertising the firm of Jos. F. Ebner in The Architects & Surveyors Directory & Referendum. London. 1908
After getting the bricks laid I wanted to see what color I would like for the flooring and seems like darker is best - this is all the floor I've made so far so I stained it and just put it down to get an idea and I love the color - so more cutting and staining then I will work on gluing it all down - I did make the door framing and wall trims, cut them and stained them too - after I get the flooring in I will add the baseboards but for now this is some of the work I've done in the great room. I've done a few more things for the other rooms but nothing worth sharing at this time. It's going to look so good completed but I'm so ready for this to be complete!
The linoleum flooring shows the names inset. This was a permanent design in the linoleum. Back in the day, people with those tiny Capes and Minimal Traditionals, had to do something with multiple children, especially if they had both genders. The big advantage is that kids actually did learn to get along.
