Glad to see you still had BOTH legs at the end 😬👍🏽

i am a bathroom remodeling contractor. i understand the need to finish a job quickly, but with the amount of caulk that's used to assemble everything, it's done too quickly. If I were to install this for a customer, I would only install the stiffener boards first and caulk on the first day. Then come back the next day and inspect the caulking. With the amount of caulking used, it will take a decent amount of time to dry. I know there are 30 minute caulks that dry with a chemical reaction, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. I honestly hate 30 minute caulks because you don't get enough time to really finish off the caulk nicely. Don't even get me started on the guy cutting with a jig saw on his leg.

Works great got mine the other day . My Mother loves it easy for her to get into now. It was a little tricky because I have a whirlpool tub so I had to cut the pipes, she doesn’t use the jet function anymore so it was okay

Very nice easy for me especially with my multiple sclerosis but I was so nervous of him with that saw and his hand and legs

[dynjarren]

I found using my 3 inch rotary saw with a diamond blade worked best...no damage whatsoever to the edge of the tub.
Good video

I love how he uses his leg as saw table. I am entertained. It's like having a man around the house again.

This is great. I hate the tub because how you must climb over it. Instead of replacing with a walk-in shower, this works

Seems like the openning could be bigger but i like the idea for people that struggle to step over the tub

[DulyNoted]

In addition to the worst safety precautions NOT USED - I love how the narrator chimes in when he can’t measure correctly!! “You may need to trim off a little more to make this fit.”🤣🤣🤣

Cutting toward your leg with a jigsaw, great idea

[christya]

Okay, but the cheerful music in no way convinces me that this would be easy to do.

Looks like a recipe for disaster of biblical flooding proportions.

A little bit of a redesign should be done add like 3 inches on all edges so it over lays the material left behind with a water proof seal

[melkel]

okay honey, when you want transfer that inside line onto your board, you can smudge some shoe polish on that edge and press the board against it, then you don't have to keep guessing and trying. I know I would end up cutting it too small and you can't go back from being cutting short. Just something I have to say, because there's lots of other imperfect people like me that can't handle scissors.

How does this dude still have all of his body parts????

Soooo this plastic door thing screws into the wood bracing boards that we measure and put it, but the bracing boards arent really attached/anchored to anything except a bead of silicone…seems like there should be a better way…seems like if someone accidentally steps on this it could easily push the whole thing down….am I wrong on this?

[thomasenright]

If I even tried to do this I more than likely end up in hospital from loss of blood, very unhandy in every way shape and form.

Would this work on a cast iron tub? It seemed he had an easy time drilling and cutting the tub!

[samkitty]

This kit is not fastened to anything. I'm sure it will easily dislodge if someone steps on it directly. Which will definitely happen as walk in tubs are made for those physically disabled or limited.
Kit looks like it's made from styrofoam cooler., .. The "door" looks so flimsy too.

couple more tubes of silicone maby it wont leak
