There's little doubt that Don's building efforts will be slapstick,
slapdash, slaphappy and...errr....I've run out of slaps.

The other day he emailed me and asked which side of the anchor bolt nut
faces up. Yikes! ;)

Just prior to pouring the slab one of the concrete guys asked me why I was
screwing the nuts and washers on the bolts.
He asked, 'Waddaya putting the nuts on for, they're just gonna get concrete
on em?'
I said, 'Twofold, so they won't get lost and because sloppy concrete people
always get concrete all over the bolts I can just unscrew the nuts and
automatically clean the bolt threads at the same time'.

BTW Rico, why didn't you remind me during that phonecall that there's always
a long drillbit in the container of Tapcons, so that I don't need to go buy
one for $8.?

BTW2, I think I have made 1 critical error in my design aspect on this
thing, but I also think I have a workable solution.
Once I solve the problem I'll disclose what it is. Yes, this is an issue
that could lead to structural failure if not addressed. GASP! LOL
