I love how she says it's not pretty or smooth but it looks almost perfect

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Thanks! Just a little bit oblong of a circle :)

[@100vg]

Emily makes cutting a circle with an angle grinder look easy. I won't be cutting a circle for a toilet, but I will be cutting an arch in porcelain for wall tiles for a tub. My wall tiles will go into the tub after the arch for about 4 inches, then go up, over and around the tub surround and back down the other side. Emily gave me the confidence to be able to do it myself. I've seen other videos on doing it and smoothing the cut with angle grinder cutting disc strokes, but her Tile Diamond Grinding Cone was not used and it would be perfect to get the look I'll want; a perfect grout gap. Thank you, Emily. Thank you, Scott.

I would love to see a how-to on replacing a toilet flange. It seems easy, but if you don't have easy access to the sub-floor... I dunno, I am just lost as to how to properly handle all the PVC past the flange that is already permanently attached to the rest of the system.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

If you click on the video linked at the end, there is a link to a video showing how to do that exactly. There are internal cutters you can use to get it cut from inside the pipe without having to remove flooring and without access below.

For a long time during the long history of this municipal area called, Edmonton, Alberta Canada many couples were named, "Joseph and Mary". There were so many couple by the name of Joseph and Mary at the time it was often attracting the attention of others who were sometimes confused about which Joseph and which Mary they were seeing at the time. Good thing some Joseph and Mary types around are not above having a dream for their their parent or their grandparents these days eh?

Wonder why it is cone shaped and not cylindrical.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

They also have cylinder options available on the market. Just kind of depends on the feel you like and what you’re using it for mostly.

flush toilets are kind of dumb when you think about everything that goes into the whole system.

[@demontekdigital1704]

This is a great video, but unfortunately in my hands that grinder would have skittered right off that tile, and torn up half the floor before it stopped. Wife: "This is why we hire professionals, honey!" Me: "Shadap, and hand me those Hello Kitty band-aids before I bleed out all over the new floor!"

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Hahahah. Just buy cheap tile that you don’t mind ruining to practice. That’s what I did when I started learning new stuff and didn’t want to hurt my more expensive tile :)

[@demontekdigital1704]

@@YouCanDIYHome I'll deffo have to practice because at some point I'll have to drop new tile on the master bath floor. We have massive 5 inch drain holes so that's gonna be interesting, lol. The house was built in 1980.

[@dustman96]

Use the blade guard folks.

[@EverydayHomeRepairs]

Yeah, if you are taking the guard off, which most of us do, you need to take some extra care.

[@AndreiMoroz]

I wouldn’t touch the blade with my bare hands especially when the angle grinder is plugged in.

[@dustman96]

I always unplug when messing with the blade or the guard.

@@jong2359 My coworker back in the day failed to use a face shield working on a live panel and burnt his face off. He was out for weeks. Cutting corners on safety will eventually yield a significant injury. If not you simply got lucky.

It's a closet flange, and it's supposed to sit on top of the finished floor. Nice tile job though

[@randyriggs5463]

You are right. I don't know why everyone puts them below tile. Asking for leaks.

[@YouCanDIYHome]

Its height is aligned where the bottom of the flange is flush with the top of the tile. So it is about 1/4 inch above. This tile cut for the video is just an example to show how.

Why even grind it, the toilet will cover it anyway as you mentioned.

[@hassanbazzi3545]

You are right but she said if you need to have a cut tile that is showing and not hidden

[@readyplayer2]

That was covered in the video. There's no need to grind this one since it will be covered by the toilet. But it's an opportunity to practice for precise cuts that will be visible, and also a good way to let DIY'ers know that the grinding cones exist.
