    It might count as modern art. It looked like painters caulk up close.

    At least they sharpied the guage of the metal on it so you know what to use when it's redone

    During a heater certification I came across another plenum by the fine installers at Ghetto HVAC. It's air tight however so they deserve that at least. Takes longer to it the wrong way, Who needs the right tools anyway!
