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.

More pics on this bathroom. It's got a built-in stereo with speakers in the walk-in closet, bedroom, bathroom and shower. Heated floor and heated shower floor. Porcelain tile wainscot everywhere. A separate toilet room. This client really went all out :thumbsup:

We're almost done, lacking a couple of sconce lights on order is all.
OK I gotta ask...why the hell is there an RCA patch plate on the side of the vanity? Is he going to have a CD player on the counter?

Kitchen in the house we're building. Marazzi Porcelain on the floor. Uba Tuba Granite. Backsplash tomorrow, C/O next week.

Clients on site tomorrow, can't come up with grout color. Laticrete Mocha on the floor. Uba Tuba looks real black until lit, then greens....kinda stuck on this one. Forest Green walls, maple cabs. Maybe something grey.......-ish?

Built and installed that floating bench today for the garage/kitchen entry hall......walnut, not tile. Scribed it a hair tight, painter not happy.

I'm a dick but an honest dick...you build a Ferrari of a bathroom but then slapped on Wal-Mart seat covers.

If budget was an issue you could have corner mounted a single Sonos Play:3, ran power to it and added a wireless bridge. Total RETAIL cost would be $370 Canadian...probably closer to 340 US retail.

Then anyone with a smart phone or tablet could control the audio...you would have access to SiriusXM, Spotify, Rdio, InternetRadio and your entire music collection off of your computers.

Effectively you have a music source, and amp and speaker all in one box for less money than you paid for all your bits and pieces.

It's just painful to see a POS setup like that ruin an otherwise perfect bathroom.
I was kind of thinking that its not his fault that the customer didn't have more money to spend...
