@spitfiredealer great post. I take it you're enjoying the change of job? Every summer when I start building shit I think, "I could do this for a living".

Apart from my son it is the best thing I ever did, changing career and getting outside.

Jesus, I remember laying one, no two, of these 25 years ago when I built my house. One around a pool, and then the patio. Then the big day came to to rent the masonry saw and cut the slate for all the coping on the pool and patio wall. One day rental. We had pre-measured every piece. So it was just saw, saw, saw, while someone laid it–sometimes you would have to trim. About 12 straight hours. My forearm stared vibrating all over again, a life of its own, as soon as I saw the pics in this thread. Beautiful job. And I can assure you, you will remember it (especially the years you adjust and relay parts...!) -M

That's not good news… I never got a pair in black either. Well if they come back again at 22oz I'm in for a pair in each colorway! Seriously heavy duty kit! -
