I’m a mason myself and done a lot of stone projects over the years, but seeing this video makes me think that I haven’t done everything yet, maybe a new sink is in order for myself

@fluffybunnylumik 2 года назад

Nice piece of work. But because of your cuts, someone could miss the very important part - to spill a bit of water before draining the sink hole, to find out the curvature of the inner of the sink and where to drill the hole (it has to be the lowest point of the sink)

@briansanchez6699 Год назад

Yours right. I didn’t notice that.

@williama.1747 Год назад

He absolutely had water in there while he drilled the drain, though it wasnt quite as minimal as it couldve been. All in all, it worked with the amount of water present.

@colmburgoyne6007 Год назад

What type of pads were you using to buff out the inside of the stone?

@markphillipsphotography2992 Год назад

I mean surely that's basic knowledge tho. If anyone who attempts this has plumbing knowledge then I'm sure there's nothing ro worry about.

I am building our house, and our building location has nothing but round stones from glacial erosion. I finally know what I will do as a tribute to my battle with the boulders ranging up to 8' nuggets. Thank you, cheers from Canada.

@alexhall6641 2 года назад

Very beautiful. But if you used a band saw with a diamond blade you could cut the rock in half and make two out of one rock and save some labor(and save on blades), also a larger concrete saw would help to make deeper cuts, reducing time on carving the bowl

Probably better to split it in half, then start the dig-out process. Save your self some time and wear in tear. Also you would have a potential second sink to work with. Very beautiful sink 🤙🏻🍺

@tomwall2361 Год назад

1 year layer - is it worth it? Have you had any issues arise since? Is it difficult to clean the sink? Is the sealer you used holding well? I've wanted to try this for so long but I can't convince myself it's worth it. So cool though, thanks for sharing your journey on this project!

@eligebrown8998 10 месяцев назад

Anything you build for yourself is always worth it. I haven't built one yet but sealer ti water proof is easy to find and apply. The rock will never leak and the water drain should last for years.

@JeremyB8419 Год назад

For similar sorts of things out of wood, normally you would just drill a bunch of relief holes to approximate depth and then chisel out the waste. Could then use the grinding disc for the final like 10-15% before the final sanding and polishing.

@Carlosdanielworship Год назад

Exactly what came to my head when he drilled the drain hole with that tool towards the end. I was like, “should’ve used that since the beginning!” 😂

@Vote_Blue 8 месяцев назад

the angle grinder doesn't need to have water constantly poured over it to continue to function... air can keep it cool. and you don't have to stop to remove dust.

Looks good.. Looks like you also provided a good amount of space around the sink itself to put your bathroom stuff. So many times I've worked in a house with all new fancy modern style and these basin sinks that have no space as they take up the whole vanity cabinet save an inch or so .... working on it let alone living with it is frustrating... So ya a good balanced setup for the sink...
