Friday...Another day on the job

Big D is on the job today. Welcome home conference.
Last night Syndy and Emory worked until the wee hours to finish up the tub and start on the shower floor layout.
Learning to use the tile cutter. First step, clean up and fill with fresh water.
Cutting cement board for the shower walls.
Durrell works on taping the cement walls in prep for the wall tile.
The shower floor has over 500 individually cut pieces of tile.
After hours of cutting, thinset, placing and spacing... Over 1,500 1/4 inch spacers were used to keep the tiles aligned.The finished product...14 rows of 38 tiles = how many tiles??!!!!
Next step is trim out the drain then grout.Greg working hard - ha!
