Don’t know if this post is live but can I ask now you are moved in do your floors creak?
Beautiful and yes, so satisfying to see a creation done yourself! Here are some tips to consider regarding final quality, strenght and costs. 1. Consider a brief further cure even after initial dry stage. Mist the bowl with water and let dry again. This adds strenght. 2. Consider making your own sealant. Use waste styrofoam and dissolve in Acetone until you get a nice consistency that is not too runny. DO IT IN A GLASS BOTTLE OR JAR with a lid. Leave the jar sealed for a few days. The sealant becomes crystal clear. Paint this on your bowl. Adds a beautiful shine, waterproofs well, and adds extra strenght. Also much cheaper. 3. Try normal playdough as your mould sealant. Quick (no drying needed), cheap and can be re-used. Have fun, enjoy!
Oh my goodness, I just need to see how the doors open and close but the camera is all over the place. Guess I’m making the trip there myself
Not enough background noise with airplanes and wind so I could almost hear a few words you spoke...maybe if you whisper I'd hear a a little less of whatever you're saying. Nice sink, though. Would be nicer if I could hear the words you're saying.
Cool, is there a way to install a deadbolt on it?
Should have got the FB paint colour mixed in Johnstones, FB paint is shit and expensive.
Surgical covid masks are a waste of time, kept the best mask for himself and did not wear it.
Danish oil and wax on an oak floor is a waste of time, 2 part Bona varnish is the only one I use.
Lovely terazzo-feeling 🙂 good idea !
Abseloutely goergous - love it. Great inspirations!!!
I thought he was drilling concrete, not wood.
Advice must be given: do not bid unless you view it because 85% of the time you're bidding on rubbish.
Sadly... I just found that out with a box of broken returns
how do we book a slot for viewing furniture?
Take off glasses when you speak with the people. Shame. No respect to others.
I feel sea sick after watching about two minutes of that.
Oh wow that looks amazing!
Thank you! 😊
What do you suggest to use for the outside of the mold? I couldn’t quite pick up what you were referencing that material as, and I’m having a hard time getting creative.
How did u install do you have a video for this
Looks amazing really thought you'd have used rapid set waterproof cement I've just come along your video to find a recipe myself. Wondering if you van use a paint pigment to grt a deeper colour
Miss the time lapses in your videos guys!
I really appreciated your video. Not much John much John Pye content. I'm watching some stuff now
That was great 👍
Hope to see you make more videos soon
hey!mate, you uploaded super channel-see you later.
We need a tutorial on how you got that mirror mounted. I have the same mirror and want to do this!!!
Yes!! We will make one!
Well done 👍 could I have the name of the Perspex
Reply good choice of paint for the mist coats. I absolute rate the express coat for fresh plaster plus final coats
concrete? cement/sand only.
I like the overlay system you have done . What are your plans to cover over it are you going to use ply - then carpet or tile straight on top?
Why not just use the bowl for the sink? Why bother with cement?
with spraying its like 90% prep and 10% spraying 👍
Oh yeah! Big time
i just brought 350r 2 weeks ago ... im busting to to use it ... i got everything for some weekend work on the side
Aww brill, let us know how you get on 😁
Your in a left hand drive car and driving on the right, even in Yorkshire they drive on the left😀
PЯӨMӨƧM 😀
Gostei muito parabéns pela sua criatividade.
Was that 4 hours 2 coats and that’s it finished? I’ve just bought the same one for the jobs I complete as I’m a plasterer so going to start offering a spraying service. I’m not sure how long a full house would take me but looking at this it’s going on in no time. Great video
Its mainly the prep work that takes the time
awesome!
Looks brilliant, great job!
Thank you!
Love this design! Can I ask what is the name of the green paint you've used? It's lovely!
Aww thank you!! No problem, it's called Green Smoke from Farrow and Ball x
@@selfbuilddreamers thank you! Looking forward to more content 🏡
@@Cmcscobri thanks Clare 😊
Well done to you both looks very nice, saw your house renovation on TV.
Gostei muito parabéns pela sua criatividade.
Love it. Character and not relying on some mass produced product. ❤️
Aww thank you! 😊
Cement needs water to cure.
It's beautiful!
Thank you 😊
Why did you change your mind about diy kitchens out of curiosity?
Hi, the only reason we changed our mind was we decided against shaker and fancied something more simple, we loved diy kitchens’ in frame shaker but weren’t as keen on their ‘modern’ doors, we had a look around and fell in love with the naked kitchens’ handle design. Both offered the bespoke colours which is great. We may still use diy kitchens for the utility worktop.
Very nice. I will use less tape on the drain to get a perfect hole and spend a bit more time on finishing.
Great content guys! Keep up the fantastic work!! 👍
Thank you!! 😊
Very nice can we use any types paint
There are different nozzles for different types of paint 👍thank you 😊
Did you go for a DIY kitchens? How have you found them to use? Thanks
If you're planning to spray the final top coats on the walls, use a medium pile roller to back roll the walls as you go. If you don't and need to touch up marks or making good ,those areas will flash as there's no texture or stipple from the spray finish.
Just a note to say When spraying new plaster it should be a watered mist coat. Also do ceiling and wall edges first. Then the ceiling, then the walls. then apply top coat to ceiling and lastly the walls.
The paint they are using does not require to be watered down. It’s especially made for fresh plaster
@@lewisshane8800 They have Express coat made by valspar. Valspar say that the fresh plaster must be sealed with interior primer and undercoat prior to painting with Express coat. So you are wrong. normal practice as the other person said is to use a watered down mist coat first.
