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.

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.

It usually sits on a dedicated little shelf.

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’m still going to finish my entire build before @Onoff gets this bathroom complete .

I told swmbo ( spell check put demon in there !!!! ) about his biblical saga . She now thinks I’m working quickly !! ??

 

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......
