In Reply to: Sheet rock mud help needed posted by bc on April 08, 2021 at 11:50:56:

Thanks guys. I tried some touch up with the paint brush and didn't have much luck with it half dry. Ended up taking a 3" putty knife and went around and filled all the voids with a little spreading with a 6" knife.

Will get out the fan and will see.

Here is the deal. Wife went to Hawaii for 3 weeks to visit daughter and comes back in tomorrow morning so I was hoping to have it done however it there have been a number of setbacks and extra trips to menards, lowes, and home depot, all 30 miles away.

I want to surprise her and also avoid all the hassle that goes with shopping with her saying she don't like this or that or the color or the vinyl plank flooring I picked out. With any luck and an all nighter, unless the paint needs a second coat, I'll be close except I won't have it plumbed. If you see the shower panel with 4 body jets, waterfall spout at the bottom, shower head, and a hand wand, all of which have their own valve depending upon the pressure. Well I bot two of those and will have one on each end.

This all started about a month ago when the water heater had a slight leak in the bottom and quit. Started researching tankless systems. Then a week and a half ago it started leaking again so I bot a Richmond 9.5 gpm tankless from Menards. Took a couple days to get it hooked up with multiple trips for fittings. Didn't get the recirculator cause everything is close by. Still didn't like the wait time for hot water so ordered a pump. Decided to remodel the whole bathroom. Got the shower setup at Menards. No one had the one piece toilet in the plain, easy to clean style like I wanted and everything had to be ordered in anyway.

Originally wanted Onyx but they are 12 weeks out. This Fleckstone stuff was a month out. Ended up with the Kohler shower. Saw the shower panel with one valve for $449 and they were backordered. Found mine on Amazing for 200 bux each. Amazing had the same toilets that the box stores have to order so I got one in after 3 days.

The old one piece 5 foot tub/shower combo was built into the stud walls. Had to cut it out with a reciprocating saw into multiple pieces then take out the flooring. Old tub had sheetrock over the frame so the rock was ruined getting it out. Chose to split the difference so I didn't have to mud at the ceiling. Added studs where the new shower went in and where I cut the sheetrock to screw on the new stuff. Also added blocking for a hand rail across the back and blocking for the shower panels. Both panels will have 3/4" pex coming into them with a hot water recirculating line going back.

Still have to touch up all the woodwork, medicine cabinet, etc with some stain and polyurethane. SO.... as I type this it doesn't look like I can get the staining and everything done in time. If I can paint it yet tonight it will probably need a second coat and a day or so to dry before mounting the cabinets. Oh well, I tried.

Got the vinyl plank flooring I wanted from Menards on Wednesday. Got two boxes under the sign for the Shaw Cascades Pearl. Last night I mapped out the flooring and was going to cut some pieces in half to lap the seams and have it ready to lay down. Realized it was the wrong color so went back today and got the right color and the price had just gone up today 4 bux per box.

So now I'm on a revised schedule assuming the mud sanding comes out satisfactorily. If not then I'll touch it up again. In the meantime I'll take another whack at getting the blades and mount off the landpride mower. Thanks for the help.
