Talk about doing things the hard way...

Much easier to turn them into tiles, sitting comfortably at a table, then glue the tiles down.

when they finish the hallway with this lot , will that put more value on the price of the house when they sell it , I wonder .  ,, kel ,,

I wondering if the foundations of the house will take the weight of all them coins?

I wonder how their house insurance will accept the new flooring?

[triplewitch]

They'll have to cover the coins with glass or something else that's transparent if they want to be able to clean that floor.

Slab floors aren't all that uncommon :laugh2:

[Robster]

You would use a clear resin to coat and protect the coins.! Fulvio's idea to make tiles first by sticking to a netting base makes much more sense also. I prefer a fireplace, would keep the heat in for days!! :angel:

At about $4 per kilo, that $200 floor is neither heavy nor expensive. Cheaper than tiles, for sure. And probably lighter.

Doesn't even need a resin topcoat either... just grout it to fill in the gaps and be done with it. Metal is at least as hard-wearing as wooden floorboards after all. And if any come loose, easy enough to replace them.

The coins looks a bit small for penny in the photo. Are they penny's or 2 cent pieces?

No, this falls into the category of "I saw someone else on the Internet doing it, so I'm doing it too".

It's "penny" in the sense of "American 1 cent coin".

Thanks, reading the initial post I assumed it was someone on this forum or in Australia who was doing this.
I also rememberd the other post requesting 75kg of copper and put 1 and 1 together in my mind.

[robbiegal]

75 kilos of copper - good grief - who was after that?

I think it was someone who had a bit of plumbing to do
