We're working 5x10s with the overtime.

After a month, it adds up to a couple hundred more[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Pennies or Dollars? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

We're working on a concrete casting place that's relocating from Fremont. Guys are doing demo work right now. They want it done in about 3-4 weeks. But they still haven't decided what they are going to do for this interior office...that all needs to go into plancheck... And they are going to have a rude awakening when the city kicks it back because of nobody doing Title 24 (well, we're doing our portion of Title 24.)

Title 24 is energy efficiency standards for the State of California for those not in the know...and care. LOL

After Uncle Sam gets his share, it might as well be pennies[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I remember you mentioning that before. The project my crew is working on will keep us busy until we all retire. Have you heard of Diablo Grande?

LOL! Yes you can[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] It's funny you mention baking. It looks like the rv industry is getting away from LP ovens in trailers. They were braggin' about moving the microwave down where the gas oven would be[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] The reasoning is, that you will have another cabinet[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] For us, we use the oven more then the microwave. My oldest is always baking[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Anyways, the trailer we are looking at, does have a gas oven and a microwave[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

gotta repair the camper. it has some front clip rot. I love the enclosed trailer, and I feel the same way about the travel trailer. a camper is too small. ah...but to haul all those toys & gear, we need the enclosed trailer. and i can't afford a toy hauler/travel trailer combo. we sorta use the cargo trailer for camping in aswell, but it's not as nice as the travel trailer. does this sound as confused as i am?

It wasn't confusing[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I only had to read it 3 times[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] LOL! I could figure it out[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] When you rent that second house out, you need to raise the rent to pay for a 40' toy hauler for the family and you[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Let someone else make the payment for you[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Diable Grande? If that's not it, nope. And that's only because I Googled it.

This place is pretty cool. Used to be UpRight (scissor lifts). New company is consolidating plants in Fremont, Tulare, Modesto and who knows where else. Pretty cool. They have their metal division (metal (Alum.) lids for utility vaults is operational. The toss all the metal in a jig and the robotic welder goes after it while they are moving the last unit into the finished area. They've got a plasma cutter that's probably 8' wide and 20' long. Be cool to watch that thing go to town. The workers love their new shop. I guess it's huge compared to the old place, plus they've got a TON of cranes. Jib cranes all over, plus there's about 6 or 8 cranes that run on beams in "runways" about 40' apart.
