    you might laugh at this gooner but you could use a plasterers bath to demo the mosaics!

    they have iregular corners, curved angles and rounded edges to demo seaming the mosaics to fit accurately in the corners etc..

    when you've finished, press the sides in and pop off the mosaics like a gorrilla bucket for mixing...it would keep your costs down and get the main points across, just an idea mate.

    maybe have a word with mapei and see if they would be interested in supplying there tanking kits and products etc,,,that way you both get benefits?

    regards

    i think that is a fantastic idea ive worked on a swimming pool with my old boss who i served my time with but i was labouring back then never got a chance to be hands on but it was good experience though

    Sounds good, even if you never do a pool the information is always worth knowing.

    i voted no already tiled about a hundred through the years plus the less who know how to tile pools means more work for the tilers who do credit crunch and all that.
