Tom Bellemare you ask to see some jobs I have done!Nothing special compared to some projects I have seen on this forum very nice! Unfortunately I was not a Fog member so making pictures through out the job was not the norm for me lol I just took pictures when I remembered and then the finished result just for me as memory what I had achieved  Here are the links first to some projects I have already uploaded on this forum instead of doing it all again. Cedar DeckingLibraryGazebo (Page 2/2)Van (page 2/3)Oak PorchMy Parents bathroom. I designed it with my mother. This was the 5th spare bedroom which really was just used for junk so I bored the loft to get rid of it all up their. The frame still need to be painted by the way    The Plant died  As you can see. It did look really nice! I bought my mum for her birthday a new artificial plant which she has in the bathroom now.       Just incase you are wondering! There is no access panel! Well I hate them! They always look ugly! lol Luckily the bathroom is above the garage so I cut out the ceiling in the garage and put a access panel in the garage ceiling. Radiator covers. I made a template then cut them out with a large router then used a small trimmer with a small pit in the corners then used a chisel to cut the corners out. This was not mine design it was the architecture. You can see some loose radiator covers on the right which she did not like she wanted them built in. So I built one in but this woman dont know where she came from said no good because they are having long curtains. So it was ripped out and burned!  So knocked out the internal skin of the walls and moved the radiators all 16 of them! into the cavity and then built the radiator covers in set back from the walls with the angle.   More Pic later! |

So truthfully, how much of the work did your mom do on her bathroom and what were you doing most of the time that she was working?  Let me guess. You were taking videos of your Stabila plate level.  Beautiful bathroom, by the way! |

Nice stuff indeed. I'm still playing around with how to post pics on here, wanted to show off some of the weirdo stuff I've done. Got a nice blurry pic taken off my phone of a 20' beer keg I built and one of a runway I did for a channel show here. Can't really post any movie stuff as I'm under contract not to photograph behind the scenes but if you ever saw the last Hulk film, the scene at the end where he say's "HULK SMASH!" and punches the ground to make a huge crack.......I made the crack that's about the only thing I can directly point out in a film I've worked on that someone might catch. Will post the Keg and runway pics when I get a clue. Cheers! |

Yeah nice but! If you look at the recess on the bath I made sure it runs in line with the tiles perfectly as I hate cut tiles around a recess. I also did this with the shower BUT! As you can see in the picture it has not worked out like this and this is because I made the boxing for a row of 3 and it was decided after! that 4 rows was better! for the shower bottom as its easier to slope smaller tiles to the waist and I could not alter it as I already tanked the shower and the recess so I did not want to break the seal. So it was left! BUT I hate it I really do I hate that it does not run with the grout line. rubbish! JMB |

JMB, what you doing working when your parents have a house like that just kidding. We have a couple of bathrooms in our latest new build that are almost exactly the same tiling pattern with the strip running vertical thru the bath must be popular at the moment. |

If something ain't right I think about it! I try and think of solutions or reasons to tell my self its like that because........... and that's why its better! Soon as I walk away from it in my head I get an image and its looks even worse so I walk back to it and think oh not its not that bad and its with any job I do if it just ain't right! Even the clients tell me stop it and tell nothing wrong it it! I still aint happy! I think what if another trade see it and think what's that that ain't that good! Cant help it! The foreman use to tell me: I need to teach you to know when its fine to leave it it will do! or when it does not changing as its not acceptable. JMB |

Nice! Looks like its glass your looking through to another room.
Its annoying because you get one area perfect for you to find it wont work some where else like around the bath

At my Parents house! Finished it just before Christmas! Had to do a lot of non joinery work! I used a Lift to lift them steels(RSJ) in bit to heavy to lift. A bit of brick work! on onside to repair wall. I did Brick work Plaster Work(Apart from ceiling! I cant plaster Ceilings only walls!) and fitting a fire! Tilling was done by tillers! I levelled the floor up though. And the lighting!     |

That's spectacular! What a great buildout!! Thanks for posting the progress pictures.
One question, though? Why so many TS75's?
Congrats on a job well done.

Small one for general use (I use the most) Large one for cutting Oak and thicker material. 110v for site incase I go on site. 110V tools are not as powerful or as good as 240v so I rather use 240v also the Festool TS75/55 110V does not have electronic brake so it takes a while for the blade to stop. Most of my tools are 240v. I thought if I go on site I can manage without most of my tools which are 240V but not having a TS on site would suck so I got the TS75 110v all my other tools I can use my cordless tools as a replacement. I used my TS55 on this job and my TS75 110V for cutting out the tiles and grout with a diamond blade so the new tiles will join to the old. JMB JMB |

Man, the end result is stunning. This is another thread i missed, i clearly need to spend more time on the FOG  Did you do the tilling on the bathroom ? It looks great. I hope they are paying you for all your work or is it considered your rent  Woodguy |

Yes LOL Yeah you do! Fog should rule your life lol! The thing wa was hard was making sure I had NO small cut tiles or a L shape tile I HATE L shape tiles. I know its not always possible to avoid but if I can I want windows frames and insets to be on a joint as I mentioned before unfortunately the shower area it did not work out! This was because it was easier to slop small tiles to the waist and 4 rows of small tiles was easier to achieve this but the inset as you can see was built to fit 3 rows. I could not change this as it was tanked and I did not want to break the seal and waist more time and money on repairing it. Oh my pay is love! haahaa! Joking No when I finish all the jobs at my parents house they will pay for the workshop I still have to build it though! lol Thanks you! JMB |
