2 & a half hours later it's complete - Forgot to mention the white tiles are glass, the silver are stainless steel.

I just puked a little in my mouth . . .

There's nothing that our skill and their money can't achieve.

Paul I assume this isn't for the rental duplex right!

Where will this end up?

[Houston Remodeler]

Y'all have to wait until tomorrow to see the end product

The suspense is killing me

[digitalshooter]

My guess is it ends up above a chef style Wolf Stove!

Paul, how did you handle the transfer to the kerdi?

[Houston Remodeler]

1- We cut a piece of kerdi board the size of the BS to work over as a flat surface, and use as a transfer medium. The BS is 48 inches wide by 32 inches tall

2- We laid a piece of kerdi fabric over the kerdi board, drew, then laid out the tiles That took 2 people 10.5 hours.

3- We thinsetted the tiles to the kerdi fabric (still setting over the kerdi board)

4- We slid the kerdi board out from under the BS

5- With the BS face up on the table we set the Kboard over the BS

6- We taped the top edge of the BS to the top edge of the Kboard.

7- We flipped the BS and the Kboard over as one piece so the back side of the BS was facing up.

7- We thinsetted the wall behind the stove, then burned in the backside of the BS with thinset.

9- We lifted the BS along with the Kboard placing the BS into position.

You can see in the picture we added blocking / legs to the kerdi board to be assured it wouldn't fall down behind the stove.
