First PEX
Time to get the plumbing stubbed out rather than just flopping in the room. After finding out how to finish off the pex to valve connections with the help of a great site FHB. I've been creating copper ells down in the work shop.
The ells will enable me trasfer from the PEX to the brass shower valve and also provide stub outs for the vanities. So after all the ells were worked up down in the work shop I was ready to tackel making the connections with my new handy dandy PEX tool.

I started with setting up the stubout for one of the vanities. This was fairly simple and since the blocking needed was minimum it was an easy first connection to figure out the Wirsbo tool. Next I got the shower valve installed and in position and made the hot/cold connections to the valve. I decided on doing the run to the shower head in PEX as well so that connection was last. Below are a few shots of the finished setup...
