You know what that means &#8211; that&#8217;s right &#8211; tons of tile cuts.  Luckily I bought a cheapo tile saw which seemed to do the trick, but that doesn&#8217;t change the number of cuts that were needed.

Now I think that I have tennis elbow!<\/p>\n<p>It looks really nice, though, and hopefully the grout will just make it look better.
