To be honest I was just hoping you could come over and teach me how to use my titanium tools. I’m having some trouble getting them out of the packaging though.

I know it bugs the hell out of most people to be watched but I’d rather they do things the way I want the first time, even if it costs a little more or adds a little extra time as they’re trying to get to the next job.
Even an elite craftsman like yourself (maybe super wicked elite?) makes mistakes or cuts corners (ha!) towards the end of a job. The guys who did all my Azek last fall were really, really good but still made a few design decisions I wish I was consulted on first. Most people might not care but I consider them mistakes too expensive to fix that I now have to live with.

Worked both my sons hard yesterday......nephew invited me to go ice drinking fishing today. I opted to go for an early morning skate alone on the small pond behind me...just got back. It was glorious ....i feel rejuvenated. My feet hurt from skates that havent been worn in years.....no falls.
Get better soon
