I finally saw what Behr was talking about (floor of the shower.) I’ve seen those before, or their twin - they’re 12x12-ish pieces with mesh underneath that holds the individual stones together. We used something similar for our bathroom floor, which YES, NEEDS MOPPING, although ours is basketweave. Also for the shower walls. Goes up hella faster than stone by stone. Cheaper, too.

First off, I've been drankin French roast and Kahlua mocha for a week or so. Today I'm back to my normal stuff and it's perfect.

Next. Don't laugh, but the tile in the shower, are those 2 tiles or are those individual "pebbles"? Understand my question?

Those are the stone tiles that the red women has chosen. They are individual stones on a 1 foot by 1 foot backer.

If those are two "tiles", it looks like there will be blank spaces because it doesn't fit like a puzzle. Do those spaces get filled in with individual pebbles?

They do fit like a puzzle. They are just laying there but not necessarily lined up correctly. I’ll start by the finish tile and work towards the wall.

She's got good taste, in shower floor tile, I love it, just trying to figure out how they're installed.

The basketweave tiles have irregular edges too, but they fit together perfectly. They were a lot more forgiving than the wall tiles (more wiggle room than the more geometric squares/ bars/ dots.

First 2 in.
First cut coming
will use stone from the first cut to fill in around edges

I didn't pay much for this blade when I bought it, but I still may have gotten burnt. I used it for a while then it fell apart and I had to rebuild the thing. The only original parts are the frame (1) and the blade (2)

 

[MWR]

Here's some of the left over parts.
