All that from trying to put some trim on after..... it may have been the cheapest option, but it turned out to be the most costly. Hope it heals up quickly and properly.
Dont be standing on an empty adhesive bucket to reach the ceiling, don't cut tile trims with a large hack saw on your thigh. and if a customer asks you to do something after it's too late to do it properly ..... say no, or charge for your time.
Good luck

bigneil's safety tip of the day.... when cutting a large porcelain tile at an angle, you only have your Rubi handy and the breaking head won't reach. DO NOT decide to kneel on one knee and crack the tile on the other to split it. Go and get a different cutter ,or even the wet saw. because you really really don't need to have a major arterial bleed from your groin area.
