    picked up an excam ta76 22lr/mag revolver in stainless (didn't find that in the book)cheap...cylinders were 0.005 diff length with cylinder gap of 0.014-0.017...turned cylinders to same length, removed barrel & turned shoulder down till had a gap of 0.004 & redrilled bbl pin & shaped forcing cone...reset ejector housing then final was dress chambers where dry fire had left bur & buff pistol...lockup is inline & fairly snug so i think it will make an OK plinker...fun away to spend couple hours

    Great job. I tried tile setting tile ONE time and I too learned a valuable lesson ........ Don't do it again. I got asked a lot if I meant to set them at that angle ................. sigh.

    Did that strip of smaller tiles set in a bit shallower than the big ones. I did something similar in my kitchen and those smaller tiles were thinner so they were kinda sunk in. I wish I would have shimmed them out to be flush with the other tile.

    In South America Ceramic tile is the customary final finish. Floors, bathrooms, countertops and decorative accents. Have yet to see a piece of carpet.

    You'd think the "craftsmen" would do a nice job,, but I'd say 80% of the work is somewhere between "substandard" and "crap".

    Your tile job is PROBABLY better than what you'd find in the Presidential palace,, (minus the mistakes).[:D]

    Have yet to see a house / room that is built square or the walls plumb. Right there is a big part of the problem. Sometimes they will make the finish on the walls (concrete, troweled on) thicker in areas to achieve a relatively square area. Thicker means the wall cement can be 1/4" to 3"+ thicker from one corner to the next.
