Reworking the shower wall

I messed up when designing the shower installation and only recently noticed. Just goes to show that you can miss the forest when blinded by all the trees!

At the right side I had simply left the solid-surface sticking out into the wind on its own with no support, which doesn’t work to well. I also managed to mis-measure slightly and needed to effectively move the right end in an inch-and-a-half anyway, so the combination made an easy decision. Time to rip off the drywall, fur out the studs, move the shower valve and head mount and build a stub wall. This is what it looked like afterwards -

In the meantime Mike got more bedroom floor laid and the weather got more snow laid. Again. Sigh.
