I take the thickness of the wood,say 3/4 inch and cater for another 3/4 inch of plaster so 1 1/2 " to 1 3/4" x 1/4" hit-its. The 1/4" concrete bits can drill the wood too so no need to drill the wood and then change bits for the concrete. Drill as straight and clean as possible so that the hole doesnt open wider than the bit. Put in the anchor ,hit in the nail and you're done.
A good trick is to remove the nail, hit in the anchor, then replace the nail and hit it in. When you try it you'll see how easy it works. Plus they are very cheap.

I've seen some guys not have he body all the way down so when the nail went it the head of the body actually broke off
Depends on the type of tile ceramic or porcelain, the design you would like, and the size you want. Different places usually have sale going on, and when I was looking I was getting 2x3 ceramic tiles as low as $80 and 2x4 ceramic at $120, but the pattern that I liked the most was $145. You need to check the different places in your area, I from central so I checked about 8 places from chaguanas to couva, but the main places I checked was tile depot, tile warehouse, tile expression and classic tiles. I ended up going with granite from tile warehousemantis wrote:Question who has the best price in tiles wall and floor ???

Yes, water is a conductor into your metal faucet and sink.

Yes, water is a conductor into your metal faucet and sink.
In what scenario could be that water become a live conductor?
