Fantastic! You are really skilled. It is sad that not many people watched your video. Not only the curb ideas, but they are missing out on your elegant setup, planning and execution. Thank you
Of course another awesome video. I use engineered stone on 70% of the curbs I install. Great video as always sir. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.Please keep the videos coming. “FLIP””
Nice video. However, I think it should be named "Tiling your Schluter shower curb." as I was expecting some more content on the construction of the curb itself. Thank you.
U should do a video with q shower with 2 lineal drains. Where I am if u have a curbless shower u need 2 drains going to sepperate plumbing. They need to make a lineal drain with 2 drains built in. I'm not sure if I should have them right next to eachother or a gap in between for tile?
All we ever do is the stone curb. Personally I think it just such a cleaner look. As well its a lot easier I think as an installer to get it level and tilted properly for draining and glass measuring
@@bonniedaves9580 your tile supply store will usually carry these. Or you can get a granite counter top store to make one for you. Some customers have done that when they want the counter top and the curb to all match and tie into one another.
Just picked up last week an Engineered Stone for my bathroom curb . Why do think an Engineered Stone is most suitable for curbs? I just went with it because it’s one piece, less grout lines, clean and modern look. Thanks for your great content! 👊🏻
1) What is your trick to not chip the tile edges when sawing? We have 15x30 porcelain tiles. 2) How do you measure the size of the metal trim? Do we account for the tile and mortar that squishes through the holes?
I use the same thickness as the tile itself for tile edges. Cannot comment toward you chipping the tile as I don't know what saw or blade you are using, but it helps if you have a good blade (not home depot ones)
I like how you cut down the Kerdi curb to smaller profile. Looks great! Have you done a video review of this IQ dry cut saw? That looks like a quality saw, without needing water. How is the blade life?
I have a couple questions that I really hope you can answer. I have never used engineered stone before. I plan on using some for the top of the curb on a neo-angle shower. I picked up some Satori brand and a 6X36X 1/2in. piece weighs in at 12 lbs.....is all engineered stone that heavy? I wanted to run a solid piece from the curb edge up the wall on each end, can/should that be done? At 4 lbs a foot how would you make make sure it stays seated in the thinset until it sets up??? Is there another kind that doesn't weigh as much as the Satori? I wanted to put it up the wall to be able to attach glass block for the surround......help direct me to the right product PLEASE and Thank you!
I tried one out recently. Would reccomend. I by far prefer them over the stone. I did a whole house full of tile where I used it alot and it is still going strong. Just be careful with it on sharp corners
@@khybersafi9137 yes. I bought only the 60 grit and it has worked good on hard and soft tile. I can use it on certain tiles and can't tell the cut edge from the factory.. also I use it dry, no water. Good luck to you
Man I’m on a tile job that I feel like I’ll never see the the light at the end of the tunnel. Do you have any advice or stories from when you thought you’d never finish a job?
I feel you, that's how we all feel towards the end of every project. Excited at first and then want it to end asap at the end. Just need to push hard and conquer your inner bitch sometimes (we all want to bitch about things in our head). Work hard brother, there is always a light at the end of that fucking tunnel. 👊
Only if you have 6, 9 or 12AH batteries to run it, too far for cord or don't want to listen to a generator. I tested it a long while back, here's the video 😎 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Frk7-U5YOcI.html
i am going to now make my first wood and tile chairs for my indoor kitchen table fixed to the wall on an angle with two more facing the table other side when i get sick i do me some more up obviously taking my time to show off my mitre skills or edging .this can only look good with my black n white mosaics or side view faces i took off photos and laid one next and on edge of others they look mint by the way ...i can now fill in the full wall on any subject you want like a big bob marley with trees etc ..who wants boring white these days TILE HIGH CLUB not in the phone book........ england......lake district oh the ideas are flowing today thought ide pass it on though ,
What product are you using under the tiles? I've been thinking about cutting hebel to fit existing subway tiles. That way I do not need to cut the tiles, only the Hebel.
I Don’t like metal edging on top of curbs. Seen this fail in the past, grout cracks. Better to use solid quartz with small overlap, grout and silicone!
I didn't see any pitch added to either top of the curb. Flat curbs are not a good idea. Water is not neccessarily going to run back into the shower pan.
