Concrete Paver Floor

Step 4 Sand

 To support the pavers and allow any settling of the floor I used and inch or so of sand. I got the sand from a variety of places. Some normal playsand from the local lumber store, some bright blue playsand from an end of summer sale at walmart (you'll see it later), but most of it was naturally washed desert sand. My boss spends some time down in the New Mexican desert working and as a concerned citizen he spent a couple of afternoons clearing a road that dipped through an arroyo and had been covered in sand during the last monsoon. Of course that sand was full of rocks so I built a sieve using some waste wood and a heavy metal screen.
