The spa is finished except for the ceiling. The windows have sliding slats that can be open and closed. This shows them partially open. They look really nice, but it was a bit of a pain to get them so they slid easily. One of the reasons is that you have to be really careful not to glue the two sliding sections together, while at the same time, making sure you use enough glue to keep them from falling apart completely. Then there is the problem of getting them so they fit well in the frames. They came out really nice though, once I finally got them in and working! I love the "water" pouring into the spa through the bamboo pipe too. The little faucets in the rock wall are also a really nice touch.

You can see a curtain between the entryway and the spa, and the bamboo half wall that directs you first into the changing room, which will be built soon.

This turned out so well, the effect of ''moving'' water in the pool is really good. And it should be moving because you have water pouring in!

Thanks Michele, Yeah, it would make a great pond! I've got it sitting on a 2' x 4' piece of plywood, and I hope when I finish it, I'll be able to make it a "hot spring ryokan", with hot springs and gardens around it! Since it will be front opening, I'll have to figure out some way of doing it though, since I'll have to leave room to open the front of the house without bumping into the landscaping. I will probably have to put the house on a little hill in the middle of the plywood.
