it's cool man check out this shower glass this is frameless it's beautiful I love that it has this grid pattern here it's just going to give this cool texture look here's my only problem when it's installing this thing as you can see this is a nice straight edge and here's where the problem comes and the tub here has a radius so when we put our channels in to hold our glass this doesn't create a small Gap that we need so we got to get a little squirrely here I have to Chisel in this little Notch so that sucker could sit flush in there and then we'll call kit and silicone and get rid of any imperfections but foreign oh that's perfect and there's not a lot of concealing that needs to happen after that again 100 silicone some Caulking and nobody knows what we did all right now let's put the bottom channel in first I already pre-drilled my pilot holes to make my life easier [Music] now for the top bracket there shouldn't be eyeballing getting prepared for American wings would be better [Applause] so drilling through tile you need a tile drill bit this is 3 16 perfect for the screws I got on my hammer setting uh it kind of it's the most ideal for to not overheat and also give that impact so chisels away the tile part slow and steady ones the race here well just found a fun thing the studs ends here no stud there but luckily this kit came with these anchors so I'll just have to bore these holes out a little bit more to fit the 516 anchor [Music] So the instructions say we have to put a bead of silicone 100 waterproof silicone on the inside of both of these channels that way they are secured usually I use Hardware that has little setting screws on the side but this kit for some reason didn't I'll link in the description below it's like 300 bucks which I don't know what I think about enclosures costing so much they want us to cut this rubber strip about two layers this will create the cushioning for our glass [Music] all right this is the moment bring the glass folks this thing is looking perfect I gotta drop silicone down this channel as instructions say to have more of it holding up there and then once that's done I got a silicone inside and outside bottom top all my crevices and all around the perimeter of the tub so that when water comes down it all trickles down it doesn't get into all the nooks crannies and crevices that grout perhaps cool crack over time oh [Music] I'm gonna install the rain shower head and start cleaning this puppy up and I'll show you the…
