Common bath

Common%20Bath%20Kerb.jpg

Hi seeing this pic of the kerb at common toilet, I did the same. End result is that the water around the toilet will flow n slopes towards the shower area, ponds outside the kerb below toilet seat. Remember to cut a hole in the tile near the wall. I removed last odd size piece :(

I searched tabao for the MR16 LEDs and I know what you're talking about now. But they only seem to sell the bulbs. Can't find the spotlight holders. Or maybe thats not how they work? haha. Clueless.

Solid wood top w trestle base works as a study! But not sure how the top would be attached? Screwed on?

Hii, let me help you search later. There are track light fittings for MR16 LED, local shops sell them but not sure of the cost.

Table tops from Ikea come with predrilled holes for legs! The rectangle Gerton table top oos... so we will decide on that later now. No idea how to furnish the house yet!

My ID found out today that I am the culprit behind the sudden influx of enquiries he received in recent weeks. Oops!

Anyway, today is acid washing! My ID, his boss, electrician and cleaner came down to do some touch up. Very impressed that their boss actually got his hands dirty and helped out.

More photos to follow! We started putting some furniture around, heehee!!!

- All cables changed to white cables already

- Overall rating : 7/10 (Sturdy, solid wood as stated but paint work is SO-SO) Can't complain too much, paid only $150+)
