countertop install, sweating it
Did this install today, i built this house 2 years ago, 2nd owners move in, call us asking for additional kitchen island, and additional 8ft run of base cabs and uppers, two women with new twins. i did not get the read on them right away, but quickly into the design process i new i had two a-holes. you now the type, very combative, looking for a fight. got through the cab installation. the concrete tops, i had to match what i had done two years ago, the island would be a different color. i was sweating the install, had a final payment of 3500, figured they would find some reason not to pay me. thank god it went perfect, they where eating on it before we left.

The links you have here are to the original photobucket location. If you moved them in photobucket, then you'll have to edit your posts to show the new location.
Its easiest just to delete the old link in your post and make a new one real quick using the  button. Find your photobucket picture, copy the link, and hit the  button and paste the link in. The editor will parse out the [IMG] tags. No need to worry with trying to edit those.
Hope that helps.
