naamanf Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 By the way, it feels like we are moments away from the 'Post a Picture of Your Can!' thread. Haha. We started with a nice Kohler in our bathroom build but ended up having to use an American Standard Cadet 3 do to a lazy contractor that didn't want to move the drain. Not picture worthy yet.
mrarroyo Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Not quite a purchase but David of HLLY loaned me their new SMK-III Digital Audio Decoder which just arrived today. Dinny, if you would like to listen to it let me know, I should be able to send it out in about a month. I will retail for about $300 and it includes a headphone out and both balanced and unbalance out. Initial impressions are very favorable, i.e. fun listen.
boomana Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Looks really nice, Mike. Since I've seen the sink and love it, it will be really nice to see it all put together.
screaming oranges Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Maybe that was it. The slate should be cool, although the wood veneer may be the most interesting part if we stick with the plan. Attached is a rendering that is not up to date but attempts to show that kind of veneer we like for the cabinets. Seems like something Tice would approve. [ATTACH=CONFIG]3557[/ATTACH]
swt61 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Haha. We started with a nice Kohler in our bathroom build but ended up having to use an American Standard Cadet 3 do to a lazy contractor that didn't want to move the drain. Not picture worthy yet. Well when I remodeled my own bathroom last I didn't feel like moving the toilet drain, so I got an estimate from a local plumber. $3000.00 to move it 2' away. I decided I could manage after all, and had it done in half a day for the cost of a jackhammer rental, bag of concrete and PVC pieces. Well under $100.00 IIRC. I went with a Kohler mainly because I love that they use a 3 bolt system to secure their tanks, instead of the standard 2.

tyrion Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I think we went with a one piece Toto toilet. The counter top template was done this morning, so the the tops and sinks should go in Monday or Tuesday.
deepak Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Round trip airfare to Paris, then tickets from Paris to Frankfurt.
Salt Peanuts Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Round trip airfare to Paris, then tickets from Paris to Frankfurt. Vacation, I hope?
Torpedo Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Round trip airfare to Paris, then tickets from Paris to Frankfurt. Cool. If you get bored in Frankfurt, you may get a flight to Madrid, it's a 2 hours trip more or less
Nebby Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 Decided to go for the Samsung 2TB instead of the Hitachi?
Dusty Chalk Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 No, I got the Hitachi, I have no idea why I wrote Samsung. Fortunately, I ordered what I meant to, and not what I said.
swt61 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 No, I got the Hitachi, I have no idea why I wrote Samsung. Fortunately, I ordered what I meant to, and not what I said. I do that all the time, especially with penis and vagina. It can get pretty embarrassing at times.
mrarroyo Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 No, David loaned you their new SMK-III Digital Audio Decooer. You sir are correct! I sent David a PM with the error, being one of first unit put together I hope they have time to correct the error. That being said the sound out of the unit is pretty darn good.
Nebby Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I found this shipping label on my Sony LED TV entertaining: Colin: Does this count as having bought a plasma?
909 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 nice. i gotta replace my 3G with one, before long. thank you, i am very happy with it.
Smeggy Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 I just bought some K2 Summit and a bit of Black Watch. Gonna be rolling a blunt any minute now...
Wmcmanus Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 Nice potty rooms, Mike and Al. I've been busy putting tongue and groove cedar in most of the closets in my motorhome. Not terribly expensive in the realm of things, looks nice and smells even nicer. Don't think I'll bother with the kitchen cabinets. Have done most of those that store clothes, blankets, pillows, etc. Had no clue how much of this stuff I'd need. I've been back to Home Depot several times have used 50 x 8' boards already. Would probably take 50 more to do everything.
