Haven't seen you in awhile my fellow Pennsylvanian! Glad you're still at it. Steve?

A small demo hammer with a wide chisel bit is better. Often the vibration will pop off the tiles intact or in bigger pieces. It's also great for chipping off excess thinset

trim puller is a great tool. I have one

I agree with the drop cloth (canvas) and maybe a 4 lb “baby beater” sledge (term er used in the Navy long ago for small sledge hammers.

glad the backer came off easily. it’s a lot of work.

and right tools to cut down time saves in labor

The backerboard under our tile is screwed down. The mortar is really thick on the backerboard, so it has to come up

What kind of kneepads are you using? Are those the ProKnees?

Use a rotary hammer to eliminate that tile. Much easier!
