Both walls done. It's funny, I realized just how out of shape I am by doing this project. My whole upper body is jelly right now.

Welcome to our world..... New tools are a nice benny! Whatcha get?
Make sure the studs are plumb and on plane.(use a straight edge across the studs, make sure they all touch, if not fir them out) It will make the rest of the job easier. Don't have to be fancy with the cement board... A quick coat of JC above unit line to ceiling before you install helps blending into adjoining walls and ceiling.  |

Jeez it's a neo angle.NIB makes short work of that in No time.
Theres a trick to keepin the drywall neat.Take a SR knife an carefully slice the paper of the sheetrock along the outside edge of the tiles.Then U pop of the ouside row af trim tiles an cut the drywall along the tile line with a pigsticker.Thats one of them knife shaped drywall saws.U have to use a hand saw so's not to cut thru any pipes.It keeps it neat.Now u have a dry wall headache to repair.
Can u get underneath to remove the base.If u just undo the top nut on the trap it should come right up.Same thing as with the walls cut the caulk along the base with a knife first..After u take the nails off the lip if there are any.Be shure to change the trap while ur doing this..
Leave it on while ur doing this so no street back gasses(rotten eggs) or other water comes thru it..
When u set the new base.Get some structolight or plaster or a few bags of cement to set the base in it makes it nice an solid.Many of the fibergalss models have a good amount of bounce in em..

My advice to you is DON'T wear your Korkers in the shower, and don't use your fishing rod to help hold you from slipping, put in a grab bar for that 
looks like you got some advice here, you're well on your way
good luck, have fun |
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
