Forgot one more pic of the finished floor. With the previous problems I decided to go with a Kerdi shower kit and Ditra on the floor. It also has a better bench and two custom niches. The only thing left is the shower door which I am waiting on but it is fully functional. But most importantly it passes the Wife's approval....

Scuttlebuttrp Thank you for the kind words but i think I have enough to do currently before starting the next demolition project. Although the wife is already hinting at redoing the kids bathroom so who knows how long before that begins!
