  • Charlie you are crazy.

    Great family project!

    Looks great Charlie!

    Those plastic crosses are cute touch...
    Yeah it's for praying to the tile gods that everything comes out straight.  We took at least an hour drawing lines and trying to figure out where the first tiles would go.  Interestingly the room was not square.  One side being 1/2" (1.3 cm) wider than the other...

    We picked out the tile for the studio side on Friday.  It's an antique wood finish - long planks 3+ feet.  I am going to do a herringbone pattern.  It's going to rock!  Then I can get the LB/Poster lair going again...
  • Dude you are living the dream.

    Enjoy!
  • Nice job Charlie! You installing a custom made flat pack kitchen cupboards? 
  • Yeah... Not totally custom. But the options available were unendless. How did you guess?
  • Because that's what I did, not custom, I was lucky. All their standard sizes added up perfectly in width to what I wanted.

    The flat packs are the fun part, you watch your kitchen take shape rather quickly.
  • Tiling is complete, now to grout...
  • The man is a machine.
  • I don't mind grouting the floor but walls suck....it's a gravity thing. ;)
  • Here is the floor and my latest work on the thresholds...

  • Done with the floor!   I am proud of my diamond thresholds...  They were a lot of work.  About four hours of measuring and cutting.

  • Looks pretty great there Charlie, well done
  • Thanks!  Too much hard work.  My hands feel like they just want to collapse and never wake...
  • Is Asha about to start breakdancing in the first photo?
  • She was dancing!  With the start of the school year her dance classes started again today, so she was showing off all evening...
  • Jollyfine Charlie, first rate job..
  • Very nice.  Truly a work of an artist   :D
  • Thanks guys!
  • It's probably bad enough that the wife is chewing your ear off atm, but how's the kitchen going?  :D

    Ha!...  Actually we got the first of three walls of cabinets in this past Sunday.  The bitch of cabinets that I overlooked was leveling them up...  I ended up buying a leveling system that you attached to the underneath of the cabinets that are super handy... But another week went by there too. 

    I'll snap some pictures.  I am taking a couple of days off towards the end of the week to finish them off.
  • Looking great Charlie
  • Cabinets are in...  Now to the counter tops...

    Obviously you haven't seen your bank balance heading South these last couple of months...
  • Yeah I think we will be in the poor house soon...  Appliances next.   b-(
