Yep, they do nice work. The crappy cell phone pictures don't do them justice. Everything on the cabinets and doors is American made. The door hinges are ball-bearing type, due to the weight of the doors. Each of the 3'doors weighs 85 pounds. Total weight of the trim and doors is 3500 pounds. My brother is going to haul them back to Florida next week. He will be running a little over-weight in his truck, but the fines aren't too much.

I've been down here in Florida for two weeks now. Be back home this afternoon. Got a bunch accomplished. The drywall guys started yesterday. All the buildings are insulated now. I had the foam put in all of them. Makes a world of difference.
When I was here, this is a list of the trades I did.
Plumber
Electrician
Cable guy
Mechanic
Fence installer
Post hole machine
Ditch digger
Landscaper
Carpenter
Tractor operator, mucho brush hogging and backfilling
Yard drain specialist...I dug an 80' thench and installed a grated area drain

I have a few pictures that I can put up if anyone wants to see them. Been a long two weeks. I'm sore in spots I didn't know I had.

Is that rough or finish carpentry? I didn't see anything about painting, looks like you're slacking off Tony.

Of course we want to see pictures, post them when you get home and have caught your breath.

Just air drop them from your Flip Phone to the cloud them into your files Tony.

Rough framing Hank. The drywall guy had some ideas for the tray ceilings, so we added some backing for him. The walls are 9 feet tall where the trays are, so we wanted 54" drywall sheets. None available, so we had to add backing in every wall for the extra joint. Also got the 3/4 bath in the shop all framed, plumbed, and wired. Installed a livestock watering tank, with an automatic fill valve. Put in 4 gates, with "H" posts on all of them. Drove over 100 steel fence posts with that stinking primitive driver that you lift up and smash down on the post. Strung three 330' foot rolls of farm fence.

The drywall guy is from Ohio. He is higher on his price, but he is dependable and does excellent work. He will be painting the whole thing too.

Ric, Kathy seems to think that I need one of those smart phones. Me, not so much.

Will try to get some pictures put on here in the next day or so. Got a ton of shit to catch up on here.
