Marmoleum project- Here is an example of some of my custom marmoleum work. There are 3 different colors of marmoleum in the photograph, gray, tan and yellow. The yellow is marmoleum tiles, the gray and tan are marmoleum sheet goods. The circle with diamond inlay, as well as the tan border piece with a mitered corner were all scribed. The point where the tan border meets to form a square is a mitered corner. I did this work in a marmoleum class in Reno Neveda in  February 2011.

Here is a staircase I did. These particular stairs are know as bullnose stairs. Bullnose is a term used to describe the lip that is formed around the tread of the stair. The look really accentuates the look of the stair. The two stairs in the middle are "pie stairs". The side of the stairs under the railing are called "side wraps". In this set of side wrapped stairs you can see how this process covers the side of each stair.
