Fireplace Pedestal and Shower Stall

A couple of other projects that have been on the go are the shower enclosure in the bathroom, and the stand for the gas fireplace in the front room.

Again thanks to my father, the tiny bathtub now has a place to be complete with enclosure walls and a drain hole through the floor. The walls and ceiling inside the enclosure will be covered with a vinyl sheet, glued to the wood.

First the support frame under the tub.

Then little walls along the end and side. Entry will be over the corner of the tub, obviously. There will be a shower curtain that goes around the corner to the back.




On to the other end of the house. I'm looking forward to getting the gas fireplace set up. It is only 26 inches tall and so I made a short stand for it that also give space for a drawer underneath.


The top will be a piece of shale that was a gift from some friends who have quarried a bunch of it from a quarry near their place. Thank you Hugh and Kathy!
The piece that I had needed a bit of cutting (which I did with an angle grinder and a masonry wheel). It actually cut fairly easily though.


More still to come on this project as well.
The bits of shale standing up on the back are thin chunks that I picked up from the quarry site. I'm thinking of using them as a rough edging and using silicone to stick them in place.
