Yesterday, I crossed number 56 off my list: Hang new shower curtain rod.
It took about an hour altogether. Using my "wonder tool" (a Dremel) with a cutting wheel and a polishing stone to smooth the edges, I was able to make fairly quick work of cutting the tubes that comprise the rod to a good approximation of the dimensions on our shower/bathtub. It looks pretty good considering that it was a one-man job, including the measuring, marking, anchoring, etc.. I think I’m going to need to give it a bit more support, though; I’m wary of having an L-shaped shower curtain rod without some sort of support at the angle. Unfortunately, I’m not sure if there’s an accessible stud at the spot that I need it, so I guess I’ll need to check out anchoring options.
