What happens here

The presenter begins applying the Craft Masonry Veneer stone panels to the cement board. He pre-wets the back of each stone panel with a spray bottle to prevent the dry stone from absorbing moisture from the mortar too quickly, which would compromise the bond. He then applies a layer of mortar (VBM brand) to the back of the stone and presses it firmly onto the cement board. He uses a speed square and level to ensure the stones are aligned and level, particularly focusing on corner pieces to maintain a square and aesthetically pleasing finish. He emphasizes the importance of leveling each piece and ensuring proper adhesion. For cutting stone, he uses a wet tile saw (Ridgid brand) and an angle grinder.

Goal: Cover the cement board with stone veneer for a finished aesthetic.

Tools and materials

  • Angle Grinder — For cutting stone veneer, Bucket (5-gallon) Home Depot

we'll be pleasantly surprised. Okay, so this is for the doors that we just built that little compartment area. This is still plastic wrapping on it. But, I mean, it's not bad. So far, that looks like anything else and I think this piece is just 80 bucks. So, it's going to secure and I'll be able to open it. Uh let's see what the rest of it It like. Oh yeah, don't mind my Skye the PAW Patrol balloon. That's my daughter's favorite. I'm pleasantly surprised. No assembling required. So, this was originally supposed to be like a time-lapse sequence cuz I was planning on assembling all these together, but since we don't have to do it, we're saving a bunch of time. So, we can just go see if they fit. However, I don't know what these grates are for. Each one of these cabinets has one. I'm assuming it's like a ventilation thing, but it seems excess for a bunch of them to have it. Um I don't know. Well, the instructions aren't very clear about it. Um the next question I have is do I need a reinforcement at the bottom or can I just attach this right into the actual cement board and um the metal studs? I don't know. A lot of unanswered questions. Let's just go throw it on and go from there. Oh, this is the wrong one. Where is it? What's going on here? I looked on the websites the exact measurements. What the hell is going on here? Let me get the rest of them. This is not good already. So, this is something different. I know this one goes here. All right, so this measurement looks close enough. is a 14 and three. That's 15. So, it looks like my elevation is only thing I screwed up on, which is could be I could be a pretty easy fix. I think I just have to move this bottom piece lower, cut that out, and this should slide in. Let's see if the doors fit that side okay at least. Oh, that's lovely. Oh, that's really lovely. I still have to fill of on there. I'm going to keep that until I'm completely done with everything. I don't want to Here's my only problem with these. Great. I like the quality. They're fine. Saved a bunch of money. Why do we have to have the VEVOR logo and their technical support e-warranty certificate website www.vevor.com/support tough tools have What There's no need for that. Put that on the inside. This is a great-looking product to me, and yet we have to do this. There's no need. So, I'm going to adjust that. I'm going to have to make some kind of thing down below. I feel like this is just going to be pulling it back. Some kind of little either put…
