all right this is as far as I'll take it the water mixing valve should be showing up here in the next day or two that way I can get access to it hook up all my Plumbing the pipes already there uh and then just put one big sheet over it and we should be done with that and start tiling this thing but uh big big pieces are done on the walls we're doing the ctie band uh and what this does is it joints any two seams together that couldn't overlap so all of these overlap by 2 in perfect but the ground is not so we're going to combine these two planes there we're just creating a crease and putting that across so that should give us our start the beginning parts of creating a shower pan that's waterproof [Music] pans done now we do the final details these are corners and it's cool is that they sell inside and outside corners so because we have all of this overlapping there obviously that crease uh in the corner is going to be the most acceptable for leaks so by putting a corner like this you've now created essentially a third layer that's going to join everything together to make sure that this is just one uniform form and then of course we have the outside corner so when we have something like the window sill and water gets accumulated on it it'll do the exact same thing pretty smart product if you ask me of course we're out of material I need two more outside corners but the nice thing is I could start my tiling and all that stuff and we can get to it you know tomorrow or something like that but uh
