It's on the 17th floor... We can only work from 8-3:30. It really sucks

 

We usually have 40 acres to work with, not sure that I could adapt:thumbsup:

 

Looks sweet though:thumbup:

 

Binoculars would be nice, but I have 20/20 vision, haha

I drive an hour in to work, then about 2 1/2 hours to get home on 76 in a parking lot of traffix

 

I tiled the Arby's in Pottstown out in front of the Coventry mall in the
mid 90's. is it still there ? lol

 

Done with hotel lobby.. Spectralock Pro to grout

Yes it is.

 

doubt it, that's all I did through the mid 90's were fast food restaurants.

 

40 acres?? damn hi rise jobs you're usualy lucky if you get 40 feet work in!!

This guys house is about 2000 sq/ft. It was a blank slate when we started. We have built it from the ground up.

 

Craig and I set and grouted a good 2000 sf of 24x24's in 3 days. I couldn't get any good shots yet because stuff got stacked on the tile today...
This is a shot of carpet squares... We clocked in at 400 sf in 25 minutes :blink: now we're both trying to figure out why the heck we do ceramics :wallbash:

Ha..ya easier on the knees......even do in socks I guess!

 

Walk-in shower. One of two in the house we're building. First Kerdi shower. By the second one i was starting to really like that weird fleece-y shtuff. On this shower I layed the Kerdi horizontal in continuous sheet around entire shower and bedded the horizontal seam with Kerdi band into the Durock joint to avoid any corner seams and completely minimize overlap and resulting bulge..............if I stop typing, I can almost hear the laughter. It worked...... and will never happen again.

 

 

looks good JHC, how did you like working with the Laticrete bonding flange drain ?

 

Thanks Brian, it was really easy to work with. I was looking into the wedi shower system, and the drain was the one thing I don't know if I like.

 

Nice! Very baby blue too!

I have used those matted 1"s and I know how imperfect they come out of the wrapper so I can appreciate how nice your shower looks. Nice work, thanks for sharing!

 

Got the blue box thing goin' now....sorry

 

@ Ohio .......... Marazzi porcelain 2x2's ........It took me a little bit to figure out how to cut out the offending tiles that were set askew on the mats after I hung them on the Kerdi, without violating the Kerdi. Hooked carpet blade. Stopped counting how many I had to cut out cause of 1/4" epoxy blobs behind tiles. I should have gotten involved in the design of these two showers, could have been a little more interesting. As it was I added the travertine niche as a gift cause I just couldn't live with myself. That shower you posted is more my style. Tile as fine art. Nice work. Cheers!

 

This is the project we completed yesterday.....Gypsy Hill Park - Staunton, Va. It was a tough one, mostly cause of the six year-old chief architect and his crazy notions on how to defy gravity. Just another primadonna. ....This is a tile and "stone" forum...right?

 

Check out what I'm using this time...


Oh yeah !

 

Ultraflex 1 for large format tiles?

Or do you just buy bags of Mapie to use as weights?

 

Even I don't like Ultraflex 1

 

Dammit !

I'm a noob with this Mapei stuff.. What do I know.

Screw this, I'm going back to 4XLT..

 

Even the bag indicates that the largest trowel used would be a 1/4 x 3/8 IIRC...notice how there isn't even a coverage rate for a 1/2x1/2?

Here this will help ya next time:

1 = 252
2 = 253
3 = 254
LFT = 4XLT

 

If you want a Mapei experience, start with Ultraflex 2.

To bump it up a notch, Try LFT.

When you're feeling feisty, drop some Adesilex P10.

If you want to drop coin for no reason, throw some Ultraflex 3 in a bucket.

When you want to play in the mud, use Mapecem Premix. Careful though. no being pokey. Stuff starts setting up in about 15 minutes. Can tile over in 4 hours or liquid waterproof in 16 hours.

What's with the switch???

 

Orlando has tile ADD. You need to keep him focused or he wanders.
