Did the whole thing come mesh mounted from Home Depot?


Astronomically fantastic work again Rod.

No cupcakes today.

We had to settle for Thai garlic chicken for lunch.

In between we managed to set the 11 vanity cabinets on a custom scribed toe kick with inset LED lighting.

My hat goes off to you Marty. With the fountain and tree rings do you pour concrete and then glue veneers on it? The arches are awesome. I'm not sure I'd even know where to start on something like that.

It really pisses me off, every time I start to think I'm getting pretty good at my trade, somebody goes and posts something like this. Then I go back to feeling like a beginner.

Rod awesome work.

Marty your guys did very nice. And I like the fact that if I miss a detail the first time I see the picture I catch it the second time around

I know it is the tapatalk duplicate picture glitch.

Petr, there is concrete beneath the caps and tile of the rings, and also under the fountain. We coordinated with the concrete guy.

Tiling the arches is a drawn-out process. Every piece is mechanically anchored, in this case L shaped tabs in each grout joint. This stuff was too thin to drill pockets into. The pieces of the fountain are drilled, pinned, and epoxied. Doing this stuff is very different than doing tile. It's an interesting and fun change of pace from doing tile.

Isaac, I'm only seeing single pictures. Tapatalk is a very strange app. It's a good thing I'm already signed up for the JB tile forum, because otherwise it doesn't exist according to Tapatalk. And you have to pay for the app. So all this stupid glitch stuff is like insult to injury. But what else can we do?
