Rookie Mistake

[oldhudson]

So during this time when we are supposed to be sequestered at home we embarked on remodeling our master bath. I won’t bore you with the whole adventure but just one little aspect. My sweetie picked out a new recessed type medicine cabinet. It was much larger than the one that came with our ’73 house. I removed the old medicine cabinet and began removing the old frame. While doing this I heard a loud, but distant crash?!?! Duh. The bath shared a wall with the main bathroom and my banging around caused a large framed picture in the other to fall smashing into a zillion pieces.

Been there, done that, got the blame but not the Tshirt.

Once upon a time, long long ago, when I was cabinet making, I had a job to do on a Sunday, Good money, double time. It was to put a suspended bench-top in a hairdressing salon.
I picked up an apprentice to help and got stuck in. The salon was the middle one of three joined shops. Marked out where the brackets had to go, masonry bit in the Hilti and away I went.
the drilling was pretty easy, cavity bricks!

Nope

Single soft brick wall

Lots of 10mm holes in the adjoining shop.
Monday was sent back with a tub of plaster
