Looks off, were you just eyeballing it or something?
Where are you finding primers?
And other private sales
Primed another 250 cases this morning. Mrs. Dude is loading them now. She's better than having a progressive press.
You do underground utility work?
How much of other peoples work did you fuck up in the process?
Your wife got any sisters? Preferably with a good job and low self esteem. ?
I work around framers and they are constantly running over our underground utility work. Crushing valve boxes, hitting manhole covers and knocking over hydrants. It’s all commercial work and it’s part of the game. I see those fork lifts and I see crushed drain covers.Umm what?
Can't speak for them, but I know there's some ignorant fucks in the trade.
What is your trade, and how much structural framing have you hacked and slashed out to accommodate your work?!
Underground utilities- Storm sewer, sanitary, water mains, fire and domestic water lines. Haven’t had to tear up too much framing if any. We’re usually out of there where usually out of the area when they come around. Our contact usually ends 5 feet from the building. I have soaked some of their shit flushing lines out. On accident of course.
Zero lot line. Bout 6' between.
Haha
I did a light pole, gas line, and a 6 " water main when I was green on the machine.
You guys not believe in locates?
That shot happens though. I was working with a guy and he hit our own shit more than once lol. Nice guy but I hate doing shit more than once. He set his bucket down on my 4 foot level too. Shit happens
I locate the hell out of everything now...but I have a few thousand hours behind me...when I started I didn't even know what a locate was haha.
Back when I was doing all the damage I was green and thrown into the seat of some machinery owned by a crazy co-op/profit sharing construction company of wildlings . All my mistakes were made working for them in my first hundred or so hours of experience.
Nowadays I rarely make a mistake or damage anything unintentionally...I got da good skills.
I have seen some seriously fucked up mistakes in my time...I could write a book of WTF Truck and Equipment mistakes on job sites...As you say Shit Happens
I have respect for others and their work. A lot of folks don't share that attitude unfortunately.
If I fuck shit up I have no issue taking responsibility.
Is the tall foundation because of snow melt soaking ground?
Do they have basements there? Very few basements here because of water table.
I don't know residential only commercial
Essentially for thermal resistance/frost and flash flooding. Keep in mind it still has to be brought up to grade and loamed.
Nice
A decent crawl space is always a good thing also...wish I had one
My crawl space is a nightmare
Crawl space? Full on 8'-10' basements.
One model we build has 14' ceilings in half the basement. It's a 3 level split that is ignorant to frame and pays sweet fuck all
Ah, that sounds great
I thought it looked like some basement framing or something
I would love a basement here but you can't have them unless you are up on a hill
I live between a couple larger rivers and just above the 100 year floodplain level

On big jobs it’s understandable and part of the job. Sometimes we have shit everywhere and it’s hard to miss, especially for guys that haven’t been in the job site long, it can sneak up on ya. I’ve hit our stuff more than once myself. We’ve been in jobs where the framers had zero regard for other’s work though. They fucked all kinds of shit up, granted they got charged for it but it was almost like they had a wager on who could wreck the most stuff.
