      I’m a welder and a wood worker. And I live by the words of “if something isn’t right you just fix it” there is nothing that your not skilled enough to do. Your just have to learn and try. And if you mess up then fix it or worse case restart! Now taking your time can help a lot because your less likely to make big/costly mistakes.

    one thing to remember when installing a tub..is to aupport the bottom of the tub..i use spray foam in a can. lay a decent amount under the middle of underside of the tub. not to much. then place tub inplace before the foam is hardened. then put some weight in the tub untill the foam is dry. this will help prevent cracking of the tub later!

You probably identify a lot with words like "Thrifty" or "Resourceful" and have even tricked yourself into thinking how cool that is, but to the rest of the world you're just.. poor.

    • @Dglinski2
      @Dglinski2 6 лет назад +60

      Paco Ramirez I understand your point but on his blog he says the insert easy $365. A typical shower surround is about 70 sq ft. Multiply that by a nice tile at $2 and it’ll cost you $140. Add in $20 for a nice thinset, $50 for accent tiles, $15 for grout and you’re still only at $225. So I disagree, the price would not have “gone through the roof” and I wouldn’t call a plastic insert a “better” way to achieve a sterile look.

    I don't think it looks to sterile at all with the pops of color (black). I would suggest pulling the black towards the front a little though, as it is right now it's all in the back.. so like a black hand towel and black soap dish/pump, toothbrush holder, etc on the vanity top would do it, just a little to balance it out from front to back. High contrast black and white art on the wall above the hand towel with a black frame maybe. Little decorating things to pull it all together.

    Wow, construction standards are so weird in the US. No water membrane/moisture barrier, plastic hoses for plumbing _inside_ wooden walls, screws right through the shower wall into wood, screws throughout the whole room without sealant. It's like you guys want to get mold and other moisture issues.
    I'm not knocking this guy specifically, he seems like a great guy and the room looks nice, but the way Americans build houses is just... unbelievable.
