A house of sticks.  Did they run out of bricks

No internal or double brick this side of the country

And yeah it's pretty hectic how fast they build, roof tiles will be on next week and then bricks week after

I'm also not building into the side of a mountain like you haha

And those pics of the concrete demo are very strange, hope it all works out though

Also your old house looks beautiful!

LOl only a small mountain.

But in saying that it's great to see what everyone is doing and how different each build is.

It's also so exciting for all. Great time ahead. Skype house parties for everyone.

Yeah if only I could Photoshop reality!  

 

Cabinet maker client says it's standard location to avoid a big line like Arron says, but he reckons the join is crap and to make them neaten it up.

 

yep what you all need to understand is all joins go where the least amount of join will be seen esp as your bench is longer than a normal sheet of stone so a join to add another bit was needed.

by that I mean a join  will go towards a corner (as in a L shape) , or in a sink cut out, or in the cooktop.

a perfect join will be flat, cant feel it, and colour match spot on. 

cant avoid joins. but everyone complains about them. (done some stonemason work in the past) ;)
