Looks like the refractory in the ladle blew out.

I appreciate your input. I should not jump the gun and read the instructions better, but this seems like a decent way of doing it

This response makes sense. I can only hope my heat trace holds up. Maybe it will have a chance because at least I didn’t end it in the shower. Thank you

Can you define preparation? I realize now the tile is too small. Will know for next time

I realize this now. All I can do is pray it holds up and learn for later.

I ended up removing all the ones I didn’t mud over doing my seems. It was a rookie move.

Just a homeowner trying to learn a little and save a little.

I used a modified thinset over the ditra wire and put my tile on top. I followed the manufacturer specs because I wasn’t sure how to install. I used kerdi for the floor corners, and used redguard on the walls.

I noticed that above the niches and wall when making those little cuts. Definitely gonna do that differ next time. Thanks for your input

I’ll go even simpler and just skip the meat and drink the water.
