I'm fairly sure this hasn't been up and running here....so I'll give it a go.


Last October I bought my first home. Shortly thereafter, I got the boot from my job due to the economy.

So the budget is tight, the house is ugly, and here is the progress thus far....would love to see other's work as well as any tips, stories of lumber launched from the table saw, etc. :-)

Bath before....

After (still have to install the door/mirror for the medicine cabinet)

I'd say that's a very nice improvement.

Looked kind of like a gas station bathroom before.

Looks good now.

Thanks, the space difference isn't shown well in the pics, but before there was 2' between the toilet and tub. I took out the wall, redid the plumbing, and replaced everything. Now at least I have some room to stretch out for my morning....shower.

Never wear a glove using power tools. :-)

Nice work Adam.
Always great to do yourself and save lots of money.
I am getting ready to soon tear out my last bathroom to remodel in the house.
Holding off due to economy and fear of having to assist the kids.

Ooh this thread! I can probably contribute more here than on the cigar side of things! :-)

Almost done with the master bath!!

Little weekend project for the computer room. I had some left over slate from our foyer so I decided to tile the half wall comming up the stairs. I ripped each piece to width and the cut each 16" in to 3's. Then I had to file down the edges. Now I just need to paint over that white primer..

We just remodeled our bathroom. Tub, surround, toilet, fixtures, and porcelain tile floor. Having some issues with the grout on the floor but everything else is hunky dory.
