Finally learned how to post pics from my phone! Yay! Too bad I don't have anything cool to show off. Oh well here's some boring hospital bathrooms I've been working on for the past month. Only 3 more to go!
Brian-did some glass like that on a backsplash a couple months ago. She chose black grout for it. I thought she was crazy but it ended up looking fricken awesome! Unfortunately it didn't match her granite at all. She didn't seem to mind so to each their own. Last pic is the splash. Nice work by the way.

No poi but wife just got home from Costco run with some pineapple and taro bread.
And a few finished pics of the Papakea shower with the pebble ceiling. Finished plumbing and glass installed. (to keep it on theme)
Me and the boys at the beach a few weeks back. And then the boys sharing a massive bag of chips. Remember family first, work second.

We managed to get a whopping 20 SF today on this steamer ceiling. White 6x6 spa glass tiles.
I have my hopes up to cover 21 SF on the walls tomorrow.
The lights are LED and make no heat at all. Pretty nice working conditions.

Looks good Paul. 21 feet of glass in a shower is a good day in my book.
Who makes the glass?
Isaac, nice work. Chips and sand, yummy.

Chad, Isaac, and Paul nice work!
working on this wine tasting place on the wharf in Santa Barbara. Latilevel 86(in kitchen area) under ditra with kerdi band to waterproof and added a little hydroban in the areas that arent getting base. Also installed my first commercial schluter drain. Desert Quarry tile with sand beige spectralock grout. Been recycling my waste water every day due to a lack of a wash out which has been working well, but mixing thinset with old spectralock wash water kinda makes me nervous  Couldn't ask for a nicer place to work though cept maybe Isaac's jobs.

Jim,
About 3x as many fell out, but the 254 did its thing (thanks Henry) and held those tiles nicely. Patience helped. Or being slow, I can't decide which.
Obie,
Does old spectralock water have acid in it? I know we use vinegar in our spectralock water..  And I'm gonna borrow your middle pic as an example of gridding for future posts on the forum.
