A Tilers Day Off

Silicon, not the best to be honest, it has worked though. I used sandstone grout to fill the edges and it's a bit dark, I'll use jasmine or limestone on the next one. I made it as a customer said they might be interested in one so I had to see how long it would take to get a value for it. One thing I would say is a good quality stone is essential, this trav was a bit holey, which made the edges look a bit untidy after bullnosing. Not bad for a first go.
Nice job Bri,
Thought u'd be trying Tenax!
 
Usually have the granddaughter here on a Sunday afternoon ... She's presently sticking stickers all over my bald head lol.. And no I'm not posting a pic lol lol.. I'm covered .
 
If I'd had some to hand I'd have used it, it was a bit of a "use what's in the garage" type thing !
Ah ok! 😀
Mind u projects like that normally work out best!
We all know what happens when u plan something, especially on your day off! Haha
 
Events over the last 18 -24 months have shown me there is more to life than work. I do what work I have to do to pay bills etc and sometimes a little extra but rarely work weekends and if there is time off in the week then I can always find plenty to do .
 
Me and Widler tiled a 37m floor yesterday and Craig god bless the lad was back there grouting it by 7 o'clock this morning...by the time I turned up with the brews and sausage and egg butties this morning he'd finished it, just a final swipe over with the washboys and we were away...then off to tile shop to grab some ady for tomorrow.
Day off......PAH!!!
 
when I do get a day off then its over to the lakes were I have a static caravan 35 ft x 12ft on a site near Keswick. was there last weekend, hope to get over next Saturday come back usually Monday when I get up and back at it by lunchtime. best thing theres no phone signal blisssssssssssssssssssss.
