It's been a little dead hereabouts lately, so I thought I would try and liven things up a little.

Post some pics of your current tile projects in progress. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Do you not wash any & just throw them out after each use?
Pretty much.
Costs more to pay the helper to clean them all out at the end of the day. Sometimes we have 5-7 thinset buckets going.

That's half my stash...here's the other half.....

completed a 2x4 travertine backsplash in Lutz, Florida this week.

1" travertine dome liner picture frame w/2x2 diagonal insert behind
the range & 2x2 glass tile accents butted to look like a 2x4 as a random insert.

the customers loves it. :clap:

Canadians are not allowed to use little clips. We need to stand and squeeze the handle. My wood float is the best jig tested to date!
John I don't know how things were out on the West coast but in ON we had the clips for years then they started disappearing! Every pump you go to still has the clip on the handle but the stations remove the base plate that allows you to lock it. I think too many people stopped paying attention when the handle didn't release and pissed gasoline all over frig's half acre.

Right now Costco Gas is the only one I know of that has working clips, otherwise I shove my gas cap in there because I rarely carry a cedar float. :laughing:

What speakers are in the steamer?

Not sure what speakers are installed. Pretty slick rig though.

That bench will see a lot of action!

That job is a bachelor pad and it is over the top. The LED lighting and glass package I bet was in the $85,000 easy for the place.

The spiral stair case will have side lit glass treads.

The outdoor hot tub has a waterfall edge (LED)

The top floor is like a night club.

Way cool.

The speakers are made by Kohler.

Was looking for pictures for my Build Ex session and found a close up.

I had them removed and we installed Noble Seal TS across the opening. Later (next day) we cut out the Noble so the speaker housing had a slight compression fit.

I believe the installer used a silicone as well or a gasket of sorts. I was not there when these got installed.

Here's a small corner shower we just finished the Zephyrhills, FL.
the shower is about 12 years old and was totally rotted and moldy.

Kerdi waterproofing, 9x18 Panaria tile, pre-fab niche & bench, 1x2 marble brick mosaic accent.
