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  [smile]

Here are the links first to some projects I have already uploaded on this forum instead of doing it all again.

Cedar Decking

Library

Gazebo (Page 2/2)

Van (page 2/3)

Oak Porch

My 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  [sad] 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!  [crying] 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.

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?   [big grin]  Let me guess.  You were taking videos of your Stabila plate level.  [tongue]

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  [big grin] 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!

 

[GhostFist]

Haha I found video of my Mega Keg! pay no heed to the drunken whatever that's going on but you can see the keg of doom if you're interested.

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, what you doing working when your parents have a house like that  [laughing] [laughing] [laughing] 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.

I cant help it!!  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.

I know the feeling, its a real pain to get the positioning perfect re cut-outs, here is one I did in my Mrs house

 

[jmbfestool]

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
