Try not to let the smoke out of the wires.
I cut it and cut it, but it's still to short.
When you have a flat, " just keep the flat side on top."If you try to fail, and succeed.
Which have you done ?

If you think Ive got extra parts on my truck now, just wait untill I am done with your house.

My cousin is a carpenter (a very good one too). He runs around the jobsight (now in this area EVERY home is pushing a million plus) sayin' "good enough for this shack". Or he'll yell out in his loudest, redneck vioce " perfect". So when the customer/homeowner/GC, or other tradesman ask "why did you say that?" he tells em "you gotta hollar perfect every now and then to let everyone know your doin a good job". He's busier then ever with work but sometimes he drives the customer (especially a new customer) up the wall. They all call him back though.
