Ehh

I’m okay with it. Probably cheaper per square foot than actual tile.

Looks like his count ex of something is just obsessing over the doorway part, just to be a twat and cast shade on the dude's creation.

That was actually pretty cool.

That's not the same one that's in the first video. The video of the one being made looks like it was done way better than that small one in the doorway. The 6 years later one looks like they probably never cleaned it or re-sealed it.

Shitty prep work & maintenance is what screwed up that entrance, not the coins.

Looks cool. I wouldn’t want it for my house but it would peak my interest if I visited someone with this floor

McGuire's is in Pensacola. Unless there's another one.

As far as the penny floor, it looks neat from a crafts project point of view if done well. But I'd never have that in my house.

I agree, he did a good job on the install and it looked professionally done. Cheap materials for $270 worth of pennies and probably $100 or so in grout and epoxy, but if having to pay someone to lay all those pennies----a few grand in labor.

That video of the small entrance floor was not of the same caliber workmanship with the install. I would have liked to see the first floor after 6 years, not that raggedy entry way floor.

The floor in the first video looks good. The floor in the second video had a shitty install.
