Seems like some decorative corner bracing might be a good idea (if you want to take building advice from a doctor).

Seems like it should work, and the doctor is correct...

Buster why are you worried about flex? Just follow Kerdi's instructions, it will be fine. The "original" kerdi system was just the waterproofing membrane on top of regular sheetrock with UNmodified thinset holding it on. Sheetrock is flexible as shit until it is screwed onto the studs, at which point it no longer flexes. Same with the new foam board systems.

Most people, contractors included, have not idea how tile works. Brush up on "tile assembly" and "de-coupling". Shluter and Wedi systems are great but all they are doing in passing on the time savings of the installer to the customer in the form on higher product cost.
I have a love/hate relationship with tile. It looks great but I have a hard time making money at it. Plus a tile job is only made out of three things. Dust, wet and heavy. If I was really into it, which I'm not, I'd love to apprentice under a Hispanic master in Florida. Those guys have some mad skills.

^^ start at $20.00 sq ft and go up from there quickly, you'll make money
250 a niche 250 a bench 55.00 sq for the shower floor deco extra, 18" x 18" tiles or lager extra, shelfs 100 each, bostik, profusion, or ceg lite grout, all extra

You left off "scrubbing out buckets," but I hear you. I don't even really like tile except in showers and for backsplashes. Cold, hard surfaces in heating climates suck.
Everytime I read this thread I consider my planned second floor addition and my ass starts to hurt.

I can't wait it build a single level with only LVP for flooring, 2bds. shop with an office, a house full of chickens and a yard full of hogs.
You spend enough time in $million houses you realize that it is just fucking stupid, people crying about the color of paint on the walls. Your second home ain't more important than my life. No I'm not gonna come by on a Saturday to discuss your closest systems. 7am to 6pm Monday to Friday are your options. I don't recommend late Friday.
I love my job and I do like to make people happy, but don't make it what it isn't. We all grew up this linoleum floor and laminate counters and me turned out fine.

You just described our house. Want to come to Gunnison and build it for me?

When we started the maker space here the guy who fixed all the broken donated machines and made anything out of metal we needed had a full time job as a handyman for some megamansion. Among other things the $5000 Japanese toilets kept plugging up. I guess American shits are bigger than Japanese shits.

Certainly helps, part of the problem with MDF is the formaldehyde in the adhesive the other is sawdust is known to be a carcinogen and since MDF is basically sawdust and glue you get the picture another advantage to good dust extraction is you can be inside close to your work and not have to walk in and out all day long

Yes.
And expensive rollers.
I will, however, use a drop cloth if there is any sort of carpet or fabric around just because multiple beers + whatever else = occasional lapse of concentration. I will also use tape if painting trim, but only if it needs painter's caulk to fill gaps, and then I will paint over the tape and use a new blade to cut as I pull the tape.
