Laying the first few rows of tile
The adhesive took a little getting use to when putting it down on the concrete board. It was a little bit heavier and thicker than I anticipated so it took some effort to apply it just right....well, as right as someone without experience can judge.
We bought these nifty spacers that you either place along the sides of the tiles or at the corners to keep the tiles properly spaced and square. I think that $3 spent really paid off.
I also forgot how much this flooring work kills my knees and back so after laying the first 2 rows I grabbed rolling garden stool which helped a bit.
