What did you accomplish today?

[Aeroknow]

Oh wow, the guy I spoke of wore them all the time. But he was old school, learned the trade from his dad and did it his entire life. He just retired. I went to school with the guy. So no more cheap ceilings for me

I’m a union drywall lather by trade. Tapers just don’t use them out in the commercial world. I got in in ‘92. Pretty sure its a liability issue. They are not osha approved that is for sure.
Some of the non-union heads around here still use them turns out. The taper contractor i hired said hell no when i asked him. I actually asked him that lmao.

Microwave drawer in the kitchen lower cabs or in the island?

When I was young my dad had a set. I don't know how he came by them but there they were in his garage. God I loved those things.

I miss my stilts. The wife sold them when I retired, {behind my back} probably best for me but damn, the fun. I used to take my kids trick or treating in a super log trench coat and my head at about 8 feet! Used to do the Halloween costume contests at the bar in the golden days!!!

Got a bid for the stucco like i did for the shop.
35k
Doing it for 20
The shop bid was 15. Did it for 10
The acrylic finish adds 2500-3500 whether you pay a contractor or not.

Back when I was in my early 20's I could freakin dance in them. Did a bunch of that around that time.

You'll get fucked either way: move to a warmer clime and the AC will kill you in summer.

He could always move to Ventura…

Most temperate climate I can think of in the US. Stays between 60-80 degrees like 95% of the time. @manfredo we could ride bikes together too!

You know, the pimp ass shit that looks like old school lath and plaster(shitrock replaced it) is a veneer finish.
We hang blue board. Their veneer finish sticks to it best but you can also glue regular rock. The plasters apply about an 1/16-1/8 “ veneer coat of some hard as rock plaster. they do it allot on the corridor walls of hospitals.
if i was rich,and i was building a mansion, i would do that and do terrazzo floors
Both cost bank
