With these big glue ups and finishing projects do you still get a little frantic while doing it? Or you have done it so many times you can do it in your sleep?

- corelz125
I've done it so many times, it's just routine. There's never really any curve balls, so nothing to get excited about other than deadlines.

When I ran my Commercial shop, we mainly built the merchandising displays and the exterior store fronts and cash counters.
We did stores all over the place (Texas, Florida, Georgia, Arizona, Cal.,) Also did a lot here in Vegas, Malls and Casinos. We would build them here load the trucks and travel.
There were big penalties if you did not have their stores ready to stock when you were supposed to.
Every place was different,
Dealing with General Contractors, Codes, Inspectors, Unions, Property Access, etc.etc…
I think there were plenty of times you could say I got a little frantic, but always persevered…

That said, this is a cakewalk.

LeeRoy - are you n Vegas? Left there almost 4yrs ago. What area are you at?

- Hammerthumb
I'm out at the speedway now.
I remember when you were here. Asked you once if you knew Mark Snodgrass? Being in the flooring business.
I've done a lot of work for him. I've bought a lot of material at Virginia Hardwoods.
Any of that ring a bell?

Messed up a little. Long story short I ended up with the right side opening 1/8 to small for the glass shelves.
Bringing the glass back to the shop and going to run them through the jointer a few times to shorten them up.

dude your avatar is damn creepy.what is that ? and im good for a shirt too buddy.

- pottz
Would be a cool shirt. LeeRoyMan in bold print. Beneath it in smaller print, 'They call me Master' The back could be a darkened silhouette of Leeroyman's head, hair all frazzled after a tough day of sweating for bucks thru woodworking. Sell like hotcakes. Great brand name.
