Cool! Good to see another framer here! Even if your out of it(dont blame ya!) I have a Hitachi nailgun, 25 oz Deathstick hammer (gonna post my hammer pic on Stealthys site Amber? )As for stories well theres many. And many profane ones! Heres one I'm still a bit bitter about-
We call her the Wicked Bitch of Waxhaw(a town near here). Well we started framing and got up first floor walls, and started on second floor system. At that time we (my partner and I) had all our tools stolen $#$%^&** but thats not related to the bitch. Anyway I went on vacation to Colorado while my partner ran things. Gone for a week. Came back and they were taking things DOWN. Seems since we went with the foundation the house was 6 inches too big. Yes TOO BIG! Not according to plan the $%$%^^&& said. Wanted in shrunk even though it no bearing on anything whatsoever. That cost us a bundle in labor yep. Well as we were putting the roof on vandals struck and spray-painted F*ck you on a piece of plywood that hadnt been used yet. We were blamed of course. Wasnt us, wish we had though. Well that piece of plywood ended up getting used on the roof. The guy that layed it didnt even notice or care. F*ck you was now PROMINENTLY visible as you drove into the driveway. She uhhh once again took that as a personal affront. The contractor( who detested her) pushed the roofing schedule back 2 weeks and told him do that part last. Not much justice but every sub got a laugh since they ended up detesting her also. Gee I hope shes on Ironworks!
