Tiling...many questions

[Onoff]

"Feet", if I'd have looked harder I could have found fully threaded I'm sure. Reckon I might need to die these down:

 

 

 

Waiting for everything to dry...

I’m sure most of us do in truth. Maybe you don’t approach things the right way ? ⛓⛓⛓

Not wishing to blow my own trumpet but this has potential:

Where’s that patent lawyer.

That looks nice, like the jazzy pink lights.

Does the next bit involve sticking the big flat things onto the blue bit?

Those are Yoghurt Pots. 

 

You are Archie.

This has legs!

 

Longer, fully threaded bolts needed here and there! I've some coach bolts...maybe CT1 rubber on the domed ends again...or I'll tack some nuts to M10 studding.

 

 

Stupid boy Pike! 

 

If I'd have mitred the other way I could have clamped the sections together for stability:

Love the way you determine the exact position of the bottom edges of the full tiles: size of a box of staples + the height of the laser.

On the assumption the tile butts up tight to the u/side of the trim on the shelf and I'm 4 and a bit tiles to the floor then I need to set the top of my support angle:

 

250+3+250+3+250+3+250 = 1009mm

 

... from the underside of the trim / bottom shelf of the pocket. 

 

I think...

I reckon your missus is secretly wishing you took as long and paid as much attention to small details as I do!

.... is this so she doesn't have to talk to him as much...??? 

 

I was at one point going to merge the two bathroom threads but you have to do it so it interleaves the responses and at nearly 100 pages in both......
