Meanwhile at appartment development side.
I did not work with my appartment development quite for a while
already, and it was not because there is nothing to do, but
instead because of my lazyness and lots of other tasks to complete.
Other projects suddenly did not dissapear, but today was so cold
for the summer (and where is the global warming, when it is needed?),
that I decided not to move to the office what I do
every other day.
Today's appartment development included table painting and shower cabin
installation.
Those who follow my blog quite for a while could rememeber that I started to
make my own table many many months ago, but now it is close to its finish
as was never before. The only task to be made is downside drawing and waiting
for layers to become dry. I will then install it to the wall and connect
single leg. This table will not be moved, since it has only single leg
and hardly attached to the walls in the corner.
That is roughly how table will look like.
Color of the left wall is white, back wall is blue, carpet is somewhat blue too.
Shower cabin installation actually was not planned (as long as anything else), since I have so strong ceramic tiles on the walls, that usuall thin drill (6 mm) can only produce single hole, it is almost impossible to drill multiple holes, since drill becomes blunt. I wanted to move to the development shop and buy number of special drills for this task, but then decided to experiment with pobedit drills I have. They are supposed to drill super concrete without problems, but they failed to work with my ceramic tiles. Well, I killed three drills and managed to drill 8 holes only, and I needed to first drill smaller hole (4 mm) and then extend it with 6 mm drill. This is the only way to drill my walls :)
Then I needed to drill a concrete wall, but using perforator and appropriate augers it is not a complex task at all: several seconds for 6 mm hole with essentially any (supported by the auger of course) depth.
Unfortunately to install a shower cabin I need to have 10 holes: two times of 4 holes to fix the glass wall guides, since there are two fixed walls and single moving one, and two holes to fix special stabilizing bar, which is used to hold the walls in a different dimension. But I did not drill the last two holes, since I have no sharp drills anymore and would not want to drill the concrete walls with perforator at this time (I believe it is quite late for this kind of work Sunday evening).
That is how my shower cabin will look like ("Cezares Illusion" model). Interior is different of course.
Also filled number of holes between tiles (which is fixed last time, when I bought special rubber hammer) with water-resistant paste. Next time (it would be great to finish it next week, but as usual it can be postponed for the couple of months) I will complete shower cabin installation, finally install my table, paint appropriate places and start (or even complete) bricks glueing (well, not bricks itself, but small tiles with approprite texture) in the kitchen... There are so many things to complete, and although it requires really not that lots of time, I still can not finish them.
