Re: Post A Picture Of Your Current Job.


RESTA... YOU THA MAN!!!!!!!!!! :worship: When you get a chance, would you mind posting a thread on the moulding process? I have seen stuff like that and always wondered how exactly it is done. I have seen threads where (in auto forums) they have taken motor/transmission mounts and made molds and used thermal plastics to make solid mounts.. was kinda like what you describe. Really cool chit!

Next - seeing you went through all the Ceramic threads this leads to one big question --- What's the backing and how did you waterproof this? Oh, ok, one more - pre packaged niche & waterproofing used?
I was doing the work for my fiances friend which is why I was in there on Sunday. I used cement board and Kerdi, as well as several coats of sealer.

I know exactly what you mean. There's a very large collection of photos I never took because I was too busy actually doing the work.

Totally fascinating how you do that, though I'm sure it gets a bit boring once you've learned how. I don't think I'd ever try that on my own without having someone like you teach me first.

Thank you so much for sharing!

Resta,
That looks great! Can you post a thread on the process? I would love to learn how that is done.

I'll think about that and try to collect more photos in future.
And I can't take all credits on me, all the time is two of us on a par with experience.

Re: Post A Picture Of Your Current Job.


So i stumbled across this forum, and then this thread. Before i knew it, i'd sat here and read through all 84 pages. Definitely some impressive work here guys. Somewhere in the middle i decided i needed to sign up. I'll have to check out some more soon.

If you set your preferences to 50 posts per page you would have only had to read 34 pages.


It would have gone much quicker

Re: Post A Picture Of Your Current Job.


Since I'll never get to actually
finish it, Ill just post instead.
It's nothing special except for
how long it has been drawn out.

It started out to be a new tub
and an Azek re-skin of this...



Then I found this.....



After the re-frame burned the budget,
it turned into plain jane cedar.....






HO decided to sub the kitchen
part on his own.
While waiting on the concrete tops
to finish the doors and stain the deck,
he came up with this idea for the doors....
(He has a metal fabricating business)



That is another thread, but he's
gonna get his cousin to do the doors
and stain the deck, before he puts in
the tubular face mount rail that he
planned for the 14" part of the deck.

Nothin' wrong with cedar. Nice to see you post some of your work
