    Just an FYI, when you use silicone to seal up a bath tub it's a good idea to fill the tub with water because the tub will flex when you have it filled but the silicone while it will flex it will also pull itself apart. If you didn't fill the tub this time just cut it out and re seal it.

      I’ve only watch this and the outdoor grill episode, but if this building is as bad as it is in the grill video he can just keep redoing rooms when they start falling apart or growing mould. I’d just watch the pros on UA-cam that’s all this guy is doing then making videos, but he is missing some little things some not so little skills. In short learn from someone who knows what they are doing not someone who is doing it the first time to make a UA-cam video.

    I installed the same screen here in the UK and done the same as u painted it Matt black. Look fantastic but I noticed after a while where the screen was opening and closing it would rub and scratch the paint off. What I done to get round it was to actually take the pivoting part off and filed a tiny bit off the frame to give it a tiny little more room to pivot without rubbing. Just something to look out for

    There's a couple of major oversights in this one; the showerhead which is about a foot too low, and the glass that's about a foot and a half too short!
    Hope neither creates any issues for you, but I suspect you'll end up making some more changes in here.
    Keep up the good work!

    I like the style and look of just having one pane of glass in the front, but the practicality isn’t great. For one, every time you go to turn the water on you will have to do some gymnastics in order to not get hit by the cold water lol. 2, it will likely spill water outside the shower which is sort of a pain. Still looks awesome though!

  • @jayovera

    Good video. I was getting ideas on how it is done before I quoted someone to do it since it looks like a lot of detail for a naïve plumber like me. I would like to see comments on a new thing I am finding now on most Hotels I am running into (I travel a lot).
    The idea is to offer the option to install the water controls on the entry side that way the user can adjust the temperature before getting into the water stream usually in the opposite side. Yes, I know, its a lot of plumbing but, from personal experience, I like this option as well as multiple heads (one on top coming down from the ceiling and another from the wall with a selector to either/both heads).
