Rome wasn't built in a day, Tim! Looks great.
Had to do an oopsy here, funky walls with border tile. This seemed like the answer to both me and the homeowner, wanted to get the clawfoot contained by the pattern.

Thanks Matt
The oops works as long as the home owners like it right?

been working night and day on a new showroom and stole a neat idea from Mario&Sons showroom in Liberty lake Wash. ( the single most amazing showroom I have ever visited anywhere)
In any case this is the test part for the real big one.

I actually went out and got them yesterday. they wanted 4 tile height with the base
included in the bottom tile, so the metal stud ledger was the way to go.

this contractor builds a lot of restaurants so the work & scheduling was perfect.
we actually had the whole week to ourselves on this job.
electricians were outside & painters outside.
pay is good or we wouldn't be doing it 
this job way almost as good as the job last week we did, the air was on as it was a warehouse extension.

WOW!! Go away for a week and a whole lotta cool stuff gets posted. Kudos to all.
Tim, hang in there, but you might end up down the hall from Trask at the 1/3 brick joint counseling center...... Got one coming up myself, 1/4 brick on 16 x 24's.... And didn't you get the memo, they want the ceiling that way as well, except on a 45.........

Brian we don't do much in the way of commercial but I used to when I was solo..I really miss it sometimes. Once in a while tip toeing around someones home gets to be a pain. No place to clean buckets ect. Commercial projects you could dump the contents of your weekend garage cleaning spree in the dumpster on the site and no one knows the difference.
