This past week Jason got busy installing another glass backsplash at a kitchen area.  This one was a little different in that the cabinet area was not the usual wall cabinet line above a countertop.  This kitchen wall shows a window to the right and left of the cooktop area.  The designer had picked out a 4" x 8" glass tile and specified it to be installed on a staggered or "subway" pattern.

The detail work came in when the designer asked to have the window jambs wrapped in the same glass.  We then took one piece of glass to see if we could polish the cut edges to form the outside corners at the edges of the windows.  Bottom line is that it takes about 10 to 12 minutes for each cut.  These picture actually represent a total of almost 20 man hours to simply get this far on this backsplash.

Jason does not look too happy because this type of tedious work would drive anyone  a bit crazy.  Jason however, is staying true to the test and doing a beautiful job making each exposed edge of glass look like it has a factory finish!
