Most of the countertops mocked up. Need to attach them. Gonna have to stain the legs. Couldn't find same wood in style I wanted and just oiling didn't give the matching color.

Used brass threaded insert nuts in to the countertop to attach the legs. Pretty stout.

Mocked up bathroom counters and the other cabinet area. Headed offshore this afternoon so will have to finish next time off.

Kids had a slumber party up there for the middle daughters bday I er the weekend so we are already able to enjoy it. Got the toilet installed a few days back so they were able to use it.

Was supposed to have 3 days to knock out the bathroom but turns out wife got friends arrival date wrong so guess they don't get a bathroom sink cause no way I am finishing tomorrow. Done for the day because I'm not mixing any more grout at 1900.

Tile was leftover from a job at one of my wife's clients. This stuff is $17/sf. Heeeeelllll no.

Knocked most of the vanity area out. Just threw the bottom shelf in for the photo. Probably going to work in the next day or two so the sink and faucet will have to wait.

Man I mixed boxes and just realized a ton of lighter ones ended up together. Oh well, can't change it now.

That looks like a baby changing station.

Faucet is installed but didn't have time to do the sink fully before I headed offshore. Faucet lines had the fixed ends on them but after I installed I realized it came with additional inserts to trim the lines so I will rotate the valves and make the supply lines vertical. I like how it is turning out. P trap will also be black.

So I realized after the fact I should have raised the drain in the bathroom significantly because the drain tube is extremely long. Oh well, don't know things you don't know when doing something like this for the first time.
