Yeah, once you get the shower walls done & grout everything, that little sliver of tile will only bother YOU. But if we aren't our harshest critic, someone else might be & that's no fun at all.

I suspect there was quite a bit of time & effort to set the drain just exactly where you wanted it, breaking full tiles only, no slivers. Happens. Still the best shower enclosure & tile job on iboats ;)

Back to the barn this weekend. Pulled the old skin off and changed up some of the framing, including adding a new bay. things should be going down hill now, just need to get the perlins in and skin it.

Thanks wood, ready to have it done!

You haven't seen all the stuff I own....may have to add on :D I'm good at picking up old non-functioning cool stuff!

Honestly I was sitting here tonight thinking, "really, a year later and I am still working on this?"

I did haul 6 truck loads of stuff from the mini storage to the barn this weekend......most of which I need to sell or throw away. Again, I was thinking, "why did I keep a 5 gallon bucket of wood shingle nails".....pretty sure I will never need that many, who uses wood shingles?.....but I guess I have them right? I'm thinking that there maybe a huge garage sale at the boat hanger next fall!

Is it just me or are you subscribed threads all screwed up? I can't seem to find anything on the new and improved site! :confused:

Finally have most of the bathroom tile set, barn is pretty much done other than some gading.


This weekend I have been working on the tile in the hallway, guest bath, entry and dining room.

I am with you haven't been on the site much lately the enw site really does not seem to work well to me. Its more difficult to navigate and for a while there I couldn't get off the first page of a thread. I will keep checking in hopefully I will get to see the pics at some point.
