00:00:11,478 --> 00:00:13,013

Hello and welcome to another episode

 

2

00:00:13,013 --> 00:00:14,681

of On the Floor with Wayne and Rob.

 

3

00:00:14,681 --> 00:00:15,081

I'm Wayne

 

4

00:00:15,081 --> 00:00:16,349

Highlander, National Sales

 

5

00:00:16,349 --> 00:00:17,851

Manager for Bona Adhesives.

 

6

00:00:17,851 --> 00:00:20,120

And I'm Rob Johnson from Bona Training.

 

7

00:00:21,621 --> 00:00:22,922

How we doing, Rob?

 

8

00:00:22,922 --> 00:00:23,656

Really good.

 

9

00:00:23,656 --> 00:00:25,458

But how are you doing today?

 

10

00:00:25,458 --> 00:00:27,360

I'm doing fantastic.

 

11

00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:29,929

Did you get that picture I sent you?

 

12

00:00:29,929 --> 00:00:30,830

Which one?

 

13

00:00:31,598 --> 00:00:33,400

The one of my bathroom.

 

14

00:00:33,733 --> 00:00:34,501

Of all the.

 

15

00:00:34,501 --> 00:00:36,870

The the color swatches.

 

16

00:00:37,137 --> 00:00:38,171

Yes.

 

17

00:00:38,171 --> 00:00:39,873

Yeah, that's a nightmare.

 

18

00:00:39,873 --> 00:00:41,474

That's my girl.

 

19

00:00:41,474 --> 00:00:42,976

Man. That.

 

20

00:00:42,976 --> 00:00:44,177

That's too many options.

 

21

00:00:44,177 --> 00:00:46,012

My girl.

 

22

00:00:46,012 --> 00:00:47,447

It's just a bathroom, right?

 

23

00:00:47,447 --> 00:00:49,015

It's a small bathroom, too.

 

24

00:00:49,015 --> 00:00:51,017

I mean, it's small.

 

25

00:00:51,017 --> 00:00:51,451

Yeah.

 

26

00:00:51,451 --> 00:00:52,318

There's, like, 37

 

27

00:00:52,318 --> 00:00:53,720

different color samples.

 

28

00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,791

There's 30, to be exact, 30 samples.

 

29

00:00:58,458 --> 00:00:59,392

And I said,

 

30

00:00:59,392 --> 00:01:01,428

I think half of them are white

 

31

00:01:02,162 --> 00:01:05,131

and the other half are like beige.

 

32

00:01:05,465 --> 00:01:06,032

Yeah.

 

33

00:01:06,633 --> 00:01:07,500

So I walked into that.

 

34

00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:08,902

And I know I have mentioned on the

 

35

00:01:08,902 --> 00:01:09,936

show before that

 

36

00:01:11,438 --> 00:01:12,172

I had

 

37

00:01:12,172 --> 00:01:13,606

eight swatches on the wall

 

38

00:01:13,606 --> 00:01:15,675

one time in the bedroom.

 

39

00:01:15,675 --> 00:01:18,078

That they were there for almost a year.

 

40

00:01:19,479 --> 00:01:20,513

And every once in a while

 

41

00:01:20,513 --> 00:01:22,615

I'd see Pauline,

 

42

00:01:22,615 --> 00:01:23,983

you know, just standing in the room

 

43

00:01:23,983 --> 00:01:25,485

staring at it

 

44

00:01:25,652 --> 00:01:26,586

in the morning,

 

45

00:01:26,586 --> 00:01:28,121

in the afternoon, at night,

 

46

00:01:28,121 --> 00:01:30,390

just so she could see

 

47

00:01:30,390 --> 00:01:32,792

where the colors are going to go.

 

48

00:01:32,792 --> 00:01:34,027

And then the other day,

 

49

00:01:34,027 --> 00:01:35,261

I walked into the bathroom

 

50

00:01:35,261 --> 00:01:37,397

and I said, Oh, here we go.

 

51

00:01:37,497 --> 00:01:39,532

Be painting in ten months, ten months.

 

52

00:01:39,532 --> 00:01:42,869

I go set you set your watch to this one.

 

53

00:01:43,136 --> 00:01:43,937

And.

 

54

00:01:45,472 --> 00:01:47,240

So I just had to send you the pictures

 

55

00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:48,475

just so you.

 

56

00:01:48,475 --> 00:01:49,476

Crack me up and I saw you.

 

57

00:01:49,476 --> 00:01:51,344

Believe me, that

 

58

00:01:52,078 --> 00:01:53,980

this is just part of my life.

 

59

00:01:53,980 --> 00:01:54,514

Mm hmm.

 

60

00:01:56,015 --> 00:01:56,549

A matter of fact,

 

61

00:01:56,549 --> 00:01:58,184

she has so many swatches on the walls,

 

62

00:01:58,184 --> 00:01:58,718

it's.

 

63

00:01:59,285 --> 00:02:01,321

It's taken up a good chunk of the wall, I

 

64

00:02:01,321 --> 00:02:02,322

would think, you know, just

 

65

00:02:03,623 --> 00:02:03,890

more.

 

66

00:02:03,890 --> 00:02:05,925

Watch 30 more and cover the whole place.

 

67

00:02:05,925 --> 00:02:07,594

Yeah, and you're done.

 

68

00:02:07,660 --> 00:02:10,630

You have to paint.

 

69

00:02:11,764 --> 00:02:12,165

All right.

 

70

00:02:12,165 --> 00:02:14,067

We got a lot to touch on today,

 

71

00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:16,536

so we'll kind of go quick.

 

72

00:02:16,769 --> 00:02:19,005

We are going to talk about myths

 

73

00:02:19,005 --> 00:02:21,741

in the hardwood flooring industry.

 

74

00:02:21,741 --> 00:02:22,742

A lot of these are things

 

75

00:02:22,742 --> 00:02:24,577

that during the course of our career

 

76

00:02:24,577 --> 00:02:25,712

we thought was a thing

 

77

00:02:25,712 --> 00:02:27,647

or we realized or found out that

 

78

00:02:27,647 --> 00:02:29,449

not so much

 

79

00:02:30,316 --> 00:02:31,985

when you get it in your mind

 

80

00:02:31,985 --> 00:02:35,855

that it's a certain way.

 

81

00:02:35,855 --> 00:02:37,724

Do you remember

 

82

00:02:39,025 --> 00:02:40,627

Nirvana

 

83

00:02:40,627 --> 00:02:43,396

Smells like Teen Spirit,

 

84

00:02:43,396 --> 00:02:46,166

never mind of the Nevermind album,

 

85

00:02:46,166 --> 00:02:47,100

which by the way,

 

86

00:02:47,100 --> 00:02:50,403

that album changed the course of music.

 

87

00:02:51,004 --> 00:02:53,673

It on a in a heartbeat on a dime.

 

88

00:02:54,374 --> 00:02:56,843

It took away that every hair band's

 

89

00:02:57,610 --> 00:03:00,213

mojo and left me in the dust.

 

90

00:03:00,713 --> 00:03:03,016

The track probably killed hair bands,

 

91

00:03:03,016 --> 00:03:05,084

that grunge music that started it.

 

92

00:03:05,852 --> 00:03:07,954

I think it absolutely did.

 

93

00:03:07,954 --> 00:03:09,155

Yeah, it made those other

 

94

00:03:09,155 --> 00:03:10,590

banjos, hair bands seem silly,

 

95

00:03:11,624 --> 00:03:12,125

right?

 

96

00:03:12,125 --> 00:03:13,059

They all just started

 

97

00:03:13,059 --> 00:03:14,761

pumping out their greatest hits albums.

 

98

00:03:14,761 --> 00:03:17,197

It's over after that thing. No.

 

99

00:03:17,197 --> 00:03:17,797

Yeah.

 

100

00:03:17,797 --> 00:03:19,999

So we'll do a greatest hits

 

101

00:03:19,999 --> 00:03:22,268

and maybe a Christmas album. Yeah.

 

102

00:03:22,268 --> 00:03:24,571

But when that song first came out

 

103

00:03:25,505 --> 00:03:26,973

and the song starts up

 

104

00:03:26,973 --> 00:03:28,675

and that heavy guitar and every day

 

105

00:03:28,675 --> 00:03:30,777

and there we are now.

 

106

00:03:30,777 --> 00:03:33,913

Entertain us, I thought was.

 

107

00:03:34,113 --> 00:03:36,916

Here we are now in containers

 

108

00:03:38,851 --> 00:03:40,253

for the longest time.

 

109

00:03:40,253 --> 00:03:42,422

I thought that was the lyrics.

 

110

00:03:42,422 --> 00:03:44,591

So sometimes you get stuff in your head

 

111

00:03:44,591 --> 00:03:46,526

that you think is a certain way

 

112

00:03:46,526 --> 00:03:48,861

and not so much.

 

113

00:03:48,861 --> 00:03:51,297

So maybe blinded by the light.

 

114

00:03:52,498 --> 00:03:53,166

What?

 

115

00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:54,334

Blinded by the light.

 

116

00:03:54,334 --> 00:03:55,902

The song. Blinded by the light.

 

117

00:03:55,902 --> 00:03:57,537

Yeah.

 

118

00:03:57,537 --> 00:03:59,372

You know what the words are to that?

 

119

00:03:59,372 --> 00:04:00,173

No.

 

120

00:04:00,807 --> 00:04:02,875

Blinded by the light.

 

121

00:04:03,209 --> 00:04:03,509

Yeah.

 

122

00:04:03,509 --> 00:04:04,077

Well, revved.

 

123

00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:06,946

Up like a deuce wanderer in the night.

 

124

00:04:07,614 --> 00:04:09,716

It's revved up like a deuce.

 

125

00:04:09,849 --> 00:04:12,986

Not what everybody thought it was.

 

126

00:04:13,319 --> 00:04:15,021

I'll be darned.

 

127

00:04:15,021 --> 00:04:17,323

Yeah, I never exactly.

 

128

00:04:17,323 --> 00:04:17,724

Yeah.

 

129

00:04:17,724 --> 00:04:18,891

It blurred the lines

 

130

00:04:18,891 --> 00:04:20,660

a little bit there, too.

 

131

00:04:20,660 --> 00:04:21,828

That's right.

 

132

00:04:21,828 --> 00:04:22,462

Yeah.

 

133

00:04:22,695 --> 00:04:22,895

Right.

 

134

00:04:22,895 --> 00:04:23,463

Cause everybody

 

135

00:04:23,463 --> 00:04:24,530

heard that song the first time

 

136

00:04:24,530 --> 00:04:25,465

go, oh, my God, what?

 

137

00:04:25,465 --> 00:04:27,066

They just say, you can't say that.

 

138

00:04:28,801 --> 00:04:30,169

Well, backed up like a deuce.

 

139

00:04:30,169 --> 00:04:31,571

You know what's this is a new one.

 

140

00:04:31,571 --> 00:04:34,407

This is. This is a first.

 

141

00:04:34,407 --> 00:04:36,743

You and I both sang on the show.

 

142

00:04:37,677 --> 00:04:39,679

That's right.

 

143

00:04:39,679 --> 00:04:41,281

Well, I think. Did it.

 

144

00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:42,882

Do you remember?

 

145

00:04:43,149 --> 00:04:45,084

Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven.

 

146

00:04:45,084 --> 00:04:46,619

I thought was

 

147

00:04:46,619 --> 00:04:50,256

there is a y'know down the road

 

148

00:04:50,657 --> 00:04:52,058

maybe last night by saying

 

149

00:04:52,058 --> 00:04:54,260

and their lyrics are really as as

 

150

00:04:54,260 --> 00:04:56,496

I went on down the road

 

151

00:04:56,496 --> 00:04:57,330

but everybody

 

152

00:04:57,330 --> 00:04:58,264

it sounds like

 

153

00:04:58,264 --> 00:04:59,666

there's a y'know down the road

 

154

00:04:59,666 --> 00:05:02,135

there's a I knew it was probably probably

 

155

00:05:02,935 --> 00:05:03,603

15 years.

 

156

00:05:03,603 --> 00:05:05,171

I thought that was the lyrics.

 

157

00:05:05,171 --> 00:05:06,739

So anyhow,

 

158

00:05:07,473 --> 00:05:09,475

so, so sometimes everything you do

 

159

00:05:09,475 --> 00:05:10,610

and what you think is a.

 

160

00:05:10,610 --> 00:05:12,545

Pretty good Led Zeppelin, you,

 

161

00:05:12,545 --> 00:05:14,714

you can really get that high.

 

162

00:05:14,714 --> 00:05:15,982

That's, you know.

 

163

00:05:15,982 --> 00:05:17,083

That's tough.

 

164

00:05:17,083 --> 00:05:18,017

Yeah.

 

165

00:05:18,017 --> 00:05:19,652

The thing for us, I don't like that I.

 

166

00:05:19,652 --> 00:05:20,887

Try to coach people

 

167

00:05:21,888 --> 00:05:23,623

that karaoke night.

 

168

00:05:23,623 --> 00:05:24,257

Yeah.

 

169

00:05:24,257 --> 00:05:26,526

Helping it pick out their songs

 

170

00:05:26,526 --> 00:05:27,293

and on a song

 

171

00:05:27,293 --> 00:05:28,161

like that,

 

172

00:05:28,161 --> 00:05:29,162

you know, I'd say

 

173

00:05:29,162 --> 00:05:30,596

you really got to be able to hit that

 

174

00:05:30,596 --> 00:05:32,365

high note. Yeah.

 

175

00:05:32,365 --> 00:05:32,632

It's like,

 

176

00:05:32,632 --> 00:05:34,200

stay away from anything David Lee

 

177

00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,102

Roth does. You can't.

 

178

00:05:36,769 --> 00:05:38,838

Well, you can't do David Lee Roth.

 

179

00:05:39,138 --> 00:05:40,073

Okay.

 

180

00:05:40,073 --> 00:05:40,973

There are certain

 

181

00:05:40,973 --> 00:05:41,841

there are certain people

 

182

00:05:41,841 --> 00:05:43,242

you cannot cover.

 

183

00:05:43,242 --> 00:05:44,344

Exactly.

 

184

00:05:44,344 --> 00:05:46,646

Yeah. Yeah, another one.

 

185

00:05:46,646 --> 00:05:49,082

Nobody can cover George Jones.

 

186

00:05:49,082 --> 00:05:49,982

Nobody.

 

187

00:05:49,982 --> 00:05:52,618

Nobody can cover George Jones.

 

188

00:05:52,618 --> 00:05:55,621

That's just the way it is.

 

189

00:05:55,621 --> 00:05:56,856

And you write about David Lee Roth.

 

190

00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:57,623

Another one.

 

191

00:05:57,623 --> 00:05:59,025

I don't know how you

 

192

00:05:59,025 --> 00:06:00,660

I don't know how you follow that.

 

193

00:06:00,660 --> 00:06:01,661

But real quick,

 

194

00:06:01,661 --> 00:06:03,696

before we get on to our subject,

 

195

00:06:03,696 --> 00:06:05,331

I'm listening to a band right now,

 

196

00:06:05,331 --> 00:06:07,533

I reckon Love Man,

 

197

00:06:07,533 --> 00:06:08,668

and the band is called

 

198

00:06:08,668 --> 00:06:11,437

Midland, Amazon, Mary and Midland

 

199

00:06:12,038 --> 00:06:13,272

the Country Band.

 

200

00:06:13,272 --> 00:06:15,475

But it's a it's kind of a throwback.

 

201

00:06:15,641 --> 00:06:15,908

And

 

202

00:06:16,909 --> 00:06:17,377

they've got a new

 

203

00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:18,945

album called On the Rocks.

 

204

00:06:18,945 --> 00:06:21,080

There's not a bad song on the album.

 

205

00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,248

It's as

 

206

00:06:22,348 --> 00:06:23,583

well as what I think is best

 

207

00:06:23,583 --> 00:06:24,717

album to come out in a long time in

 

208

00:06:24,717 --> 00:06:25,251

country music.

 

209

00:06:25,251 --> 00:06:27,153

And and I don't like today's

 

210

00:06:27,153 --> 00:06:28,488

country music.

 

211

00:06:28,955 --> 00:06:30,590

What's the name of it? Midland.

 

212

00:06:30,590 --> 00:06:31,991

Yeah. Am I in?

 

213

00:06:31,991 --> 00:06:33,960

Excuse me. Midland.

 

214

00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:34,660

And the album

 

215

00:06:34,660 --> 00:06:36,863

is called On the Rocks on the.

 

216

00:06:36,863 --> 00:06:38,931

I can't get past it, man.

 

217

00:06:38,931 --> 00:06:39,232

I keep

 

218

00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:40,199

every time I get on the car,

 

219

00:06:40,199 --> 00:06:41,267

I listen to it.

 

220

00:06:41,434 --> 00:06:43,536

It's radio crazy.

 

221

00:06:43,536 --> 00:06:45,772

It is kind of like a mixture of both.

 

222

00:06:46,973 --> 00:06:48,040

But it's not that bro

 

223

00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:48,875

country music

 

224

00:06:48,875 --> 00:06:50,309

or that, you know, whatever.

 

225

00:06:50,309 --> 00:06:50,943

What are they doing with

 

226

00:06:50,943 --> 00:06:51,511

country music

 

227

00:06:51,511 --> 00:06:53,413

now that it's on the air

 

228

00:06:53,413 --> 00:06:54,447

for the most part?

 

229

00:06:54,447 --> 00:06:55,648

Boy, I don't want to sound

 

230

00:06:55,648 --> 00:06:57,216

like an old geezer, but

 

231

00:06:58,284 --> 00:06:59,519

when I switch a station

 

232

00:06:59,519 --> 00:07:00,987

because I think,

 

233

00:07:00,987 --> 00:07:01,421

you know,

 

234

00:07:01,421 --> 00:07:03,489

what is it doing on the pop station?

 

235

00:07:04,590 --> 00:07:06,125

But I'm on a country station.

 

236

00:07:06,125 --> 00:07:08,461

Yeah. It was one I remember.

 

237

00:07:08,861 --> 00:07:10,096

God rest his soul.

 

238

00:07:10,096 --> 00:07:12,765

Good old Charlie Daniels, man.

 

239

00:07:12,765 --> 00:07:16,335

He did not like that.

 

240

00:07:16,369 --> 00:07:17,770

He did not like that kind of

 

241

00:07:17,770 --> 00:07:18,571

country music

 

242

00:07:18,571 --> 00:07:19,472

where you can't tell

 

243

00:07:19,472 --> 00:07:21,707

if it's country music or not.

 

244

00:07:21,707 --> 00:07:23,342

Well, country music

 

245

00:07:23,342 --> 00:07:25,278

finally got what they've been wanting

 

246

00:07:25,278 --> 00:07:26,179

since.

 

247

00:07:26,512 --> 00:07:27,447

Probably Hank Williams

 

248

00:07:27,447 --> 00:07:29,182

picked up a guitar.

 

249

00:07:29,315 --> 00:07:30,917

Country music has been struggling

 

250

00:07:30,917 --> 00:07:32,852

to find a younger audience

 

251

00:07:32,852 --> 00:07:34,987

from 50 years ago

 

252

00:07:35,588 --> 00:07:37,690

because old people don't buy albums,

 

253

00:07:38,191 --> 00:07:39,258

they don't go to concerts,

 

254

00:07:39,258 --> 00:07:40,860

they don't buy t shirts.

 

255

00:07:40,860 --> 00:07:42,829

So they've been trying to get a younger

 

256

00:07:42,829 --> 00:07:43,496

audience, younger

 

257

00:07:43,496 --> 00:07:45,331

and younger, younger audience.

 

258

00:07:45,331 --> 00:07:47,133

And with Whatsername came out,

 

259

00:07:47,133 --> 00:07:48,534

I mean that the crossover,

 

260

00:07:48,534 --> 00:07:50,069

what's the name of

 

261

00:07:50,069 --> 00:07:51,838

an album read or where there was a

 

262

00:07:53,139 --> 00:07:54,207

Oh, the girl.

 

263

00:07:54,207 --> 00:07:54,907

The girl was

 

264

00:07:54,907 --> 00:07:56,943

always writing about ex-boyfriends.

 

265

00:07:57,310 --> 00:08:00,179

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

266

00:08:00,179 --> 00:08:01,113

Taylor Swift.

 

267

00:08:01,113 --> 00:08:02,181

It was Swift. Yeah.

 

268

00:08:02,181 --> 00:08:03,583

Taylor Swift,

 

269

00:08:03,583 --> 00:08:05,985

which in early stuff was very country.

 

270

00:08:06,185 --> 00:08:06,686

Yeah.

 

271

00:08:06,686 --> 00:08:08,421

And she's completely switched.

 

272

00:08:08,421 --> 00:08:09,121

Right.

 

273

00:08:10,122 --> 00:08:11,691

Completely off topic. So let's go.

 

274

00:08:11,691 --> 00:08:12,758

So myths that we thought

 

275

00:08:12,758 --> 00:08:13,759

were, were a thing

 

276

00:08:13,759 --> 00:08:14,760

and then we realized over

 

277

00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,497

time is not the case going flawed myths.

 

278

00:08:17,497 --> 00:08:20,399

Here we go. Yeah.

 

279

00:08:20,700 --> 00:08:21,634

You got anything.

 

280

00:08:21,634 --> 00:08:24,170

More solid, the better

 

281

00:08:24,837 --> 00:08:26,672

to have anything.

 

282

00:08:26,672 --> 00:08:27,673

More solid, the better.

 

283

00:08:27,673 --> 00:08:29,041

What the hell you mean by that?

 

284

00:08:29,041 --> 00:08:29,342

Yeah.

 

285

00:08:29,809 --> 00:08:31,310

If a finish is high and solids,

 

286

00:08:31,310 --> 00:08:32,378

it's got to be a better finish.

 

287

00:08:32,378 --> 00:08:33,446

Oh, see?

 

288

00:08:33,446 --> 00:08:36,148

See, that was not very well communicated.

 

289

00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:39,252

I was thinking you were saying more songs

 

290

00:08:39,252 --> 00:08:43,122

like Solid with Boring versus Engineer.

 

291

00:08:43,122 --> 00:08:45,224

So you're saying you're finished?

 

292

00:08:45,791 --> 00:08:46,158

Yes.

 

293

00:08:46,158 --> 00:08:47,860

Oh, well, that's a whole different

 

294

00:08:47,860 --> 00:08:48,394

paint job.

 

295

00:08:49,795 --> 00:08:50,396

Okay.

 

296

00:08:50,396 --> 00:08:51,364

The more solid is, the better.

 

297

00:08:51,364 --> 00:08:53,432

Explain yourself, please.

 

298

00:08:53,599 --> 00:08:56,636

It's not how many solids

 

299

00:08:56,669 --> 00:08:57,570

are in a finish, it's

 

300

00:08:57,570 --> 00:08:59,672

the quality of the solids.

 

301

00:08:59,672 --> 00:09:01,541

Thank you for saying that.

 

302

00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:03,876

It's the quality of the resins.

 

303

00:09:03,876 --> 00:09:05,945

It's the quality of the solids.

 

304

00:09:06,312 --> 00:09:08,481

A satin finish is going to have

 

305

00:09:08,848 --> 00:09:10,883

more solid standard gloss finish

 

306

00:09:10,883 --> 00:09:13,886

because satin has flattening agents in it

 

307

00:09:13,886 --> 00:09:15,922

that do nothing for strength.

 

308

00:09:15,922 --> 00:09:16,822

But it's a solid.

 

309

00:09:16,822 --> 00:09:19,292

So that's part of the makeup.

 

310

00:09:19,292 --> 00:09:21,928

So do not get in that whole

 

311

00:09:21,928 --> 00:09:23,596

deal of the higher

 

312

00:09:23,596 --> 00:09:26,065

the solid content the better the finish.

 

313

00:09:26,365 --> 00:09:27,667

Not true

 

314

00:09:27,667 --> 00:09:30,436

because solid white, solid bird feathers,

 

315

00:09:31,070 --> 00:09:31,704

you know what I mean?

 

316

00:09:31,704 --> 00:09:32,538

So it's

 

317

00:09:32,538 --> 00:09:34,941

I could throw anything in there, right?

 

318

00:09:35,274 --> 00:09:37,176

It has bugged me for the longest time.

 

319

00:09:37,176 --> 00:09:38,878

I'm glad you said that, because

 

320

00:09:38,878 --> 00:09:40,112

it is so misleading

 

321

00:09:41,213 --> 00:09:42,648

that it's

 

322

00:09:42,648 --> 00:09:44,250

bugged me more than I can tell you.

 

323

00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:45,251

So I'm glad to hear you say that.

 

324

00:09:45,251 --> 00:09:46,686

That is absolutely in fact,

 

325

00:09:46,686 --> 00:09:48,321

it is the quality of the resins

 

326

00:09:48,321 --> 00:09:50,690

in the solids versus the amount, as

 

327

00:09:51,557 --> 00:09:53,259

is otherwise, whatever.

 

328

00:09:53,259 --> 00:09:55,661

We put any solids in there just put more.

 

329

00:09:55,661 --> 00:09:57,563

And you know, you would think

 

330

00:09:57,563 --> 00:09:59,765

that it's a ridiculous conceptual thing.

 

331

00:09:59,765 --> 00:10:00,132

I mean,

 

332

00:10:00,132 --> 00:10:02,034

and that is why

 

333

00:10:02,034 --> 00:10:03,669

the entire world has been chasing

 

334

00:10:03,669 --> 00:10:04,770

traffic and traffic.

 

335

00:10:04,770 --> 00:10:07,773

HD Yep, it's not the solid content,

 

336

00:10:07,773 --> 00:10:09,842

it's the quality of the solids

 

337

00:10:09,842 --> 00:10:12,778

and the resins that we use, the polymers,

 

338

00:10:12,778 --> 00:10:13,546

all of that.

 

339

00:10:13,546 --> 00:10:15,781

That's, that's what matters.

 

340

00:10:17,149 --> 00:10:19,085

Also hardness, by the way,

 

341

00:10:19,085 --> 00:10:20,853

do you have that down on your list?

 

342

00:10:20,853 --> 00:10:22,421

People think it's a harder

 

343

00:10:22,421 --> 00:10:25,024

the harder the finish, the better.

 

344

00:10:25,024 --> 00:10:27,026

Absolutely not the case, too,

 

345

00:10:28,094 --> 00:10:30,062

I can tell you manufacture.

 

346

00:10:30,062 --> 00:10:32,264

Oh, gosh, back in a

 

347

00:10:32,431 --> 00:10:34,734

C twenties, back in the eighties,

 

348

00:10:34,734 --> 00:10:36,102

came out with a product.

 

349

00:10:36,102 --> 00:10:37,203

It said the hardest days.

 

350

00:10:37,203 --> 00:10:37,837

It was

 

351

00:10:37,937 --> 00:10:38,504

it was hard

 

352

00:10:38,504 --> 00:10:41,407

as hard as can be supremely hard finished

 

353

00:10:42,074 --> 00:10:44,310

and and failed because

 

354

00:10:45,978 --> 00:10:47,246

it didn't have all the other properties

 

355

00:10:47,246 --> 00:10:48,147

that you needed to finish.

 

356

00:10:48,147 --> 00:10:48,781

There's a lot of the

 

357

00:10:48,781 --> 00:10:49,215

a lot of

 

358

00:10:49,215 --> 00:10:49,682

the ways

 

359

00:10:49,682 --> 00:10:51,150

you you you measure finish

 

360

00:10:51,150 --> 00:10:53,019

like maybe ten different metrics

 

361

00:10:53,019 --> 00:10:54,286

of how you determine

 

362

00:10:54,286 --> 00:10:56,255

what what makes up the finished

 

363

00:10:56,255 --> 00:10:57,590

that being one of them.

 

364

00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:59,258

And but there are many,

 

365

00:10:59,258 --> 00:11:00,493

many other other products

 

366

00:11:00,493 --> 00:11:01,927

that are that are extremely important.

 

367

00:11:01,927 --> 00:11:03,996

So that is also one that is just not

 

368

00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:05,297

gets it.

 

369

00:11:05,297 --> 00:11:06,832

Well, it's harder

 

370

00:11:06,832 --> 00:11:09,935

that's not it's not what people think

 

371

00:11:09,935 --> 00:11:10,770

it is.

 

372

00:11:10,770 --> 00:11:11,070

Yeah.

 

373

00:11:11,070 --> 00:11:13,139

Because something I learned an

 

374

00:11:13,139 --> 00:11:14,306

old timer, the guy,

 

375

00:11:15,408 --> 00:11:16,409

Mike Sundell, I'll

 

376

00:11:16,409 --> 00:11:17,076

say his name

 

377

00:11:17,076 --> 00:11:19,879

hopefully Mike is listening to the show.

 

378

00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:20,980

Just one of the best guys

 

379

00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:22,848

I ever met in my life in the industry.

 

380

00:11:22,848 --> 00:11:25,751

And and he was my dad's

 

381

00:11:26,085 --> 00:11:28,054

he was one of my dad's first salesmen.

 

382

00:11:28,054 --> 00:11:30,423

So I met him when we were still doing

 

383

00:11:30,423 --> 00:11:31,791

bowling alleys.

 

384

00:11:31,791 --> 00:11:34,293

And like I said, he invented the t bar,

 

385

00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:36,696

taught me how to pull the T bar and

 

386

00:11:39,899 --> 00:11:40,966

he was talking to me,

 

387

00:11:40,966 --> 00:11:43,269

he said, Ah, what I want you to do,

 

388

00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:45,137

I want you to go home,

 

389

00:11:46,072 --> 00:11:48,374

take a piece of cellophane,

 

390

00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:50,242

put some polyurethane on one side

 

391

00:11:50,242 --> 00:11:51,711

and some water based on the other,

 

392

00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:54,747

and let the two films dry.

 

393

00:11:54,747 --> 00:11:55,381

He said, Then

 

394

00:11:55,381 --> 00:11:57,650

I want you to take the polyurethane and

 

395

00:11:58,050 --> 00:12:00,386

try to pull it, stretch it,

 

396

00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,557

and then do the water bass.

 

397

00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:07,059

And this is the whole key to water bass.

 

398

00:12:07,059 --> 00:12:08,327

When you stretch the water

 

399

00:12:08,327 --> 00:12:09,428

bass, you could stretch it

 

400

00:12:09,428 --> 00:12:11,697

to ten, 12, 15, whatever,

 

401

00:12:11,697 --> 00:12:13,199

and it would go back,

 

402

00:12:13,199 --> 00:12:15,000

okay, it will go back.

 

403

00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,302

Polyurethane,

 

404

00:12:16,302 --> 00:12:18,838

like you said, hardness, hardness equals

 

405

00:12:18,838 --> 00:12:20,306

brittle boom.

 

406

00:12:20,306 --> 00:12:20,973

It just snaps.

 

407

00:12:20,973 --> 00:12:22,875

It doesn't stretch, doesn't do anything.

 

408

00:12:22,875 --> 00:12:25,511

Yeah. So,

 

409

00:12:25,678 --> 00:12:26,912

yeah, right. Ha ha.

 

410

00:12:26,912 --> 00:12:29,381

Just because the finish is super hard.

 

411

00:12:29,381 --> 00:12:29,715

Yeah.

 

412

00:12:29,715 --> 00:12:30,783

Does not mean that it's

 

413

00:12:30,783 --> 00:12:32,918

going to have good wear capabilities.

 

414

00:12:32,918 --> 00:12:34,520

Not the answer. Yeah.

 

415

00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,321

All right, you know what?

 

416

00:12:35,321 --> 00:12:37,723

You were so good. Go again.

 

417

00:12:37,890 --> 00:12:41,494

No need to a braid.

 

418

00:12:41,494 --> 00:12:42,762

I'm sorry.

 

419

00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:44,330

Boy, did I screw that one up.

 

420

00:12:44,330 --> 00:12:45,164

Hello?

 

421

00:12:45,297 --> 00:12:46,465

Need to a braid?

 

422

00:12:46,465 --> 00:12:48,934

All coats? Yeah.

 

423

00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:49,702

And I.

 

424

00:12:49,702 --> 00:12:50,636

I really thought

 

425

00:12:50,636 --> 00:12:53,072

that I wasn't even going to use this one,

 

426

00:12:53,072 --> 00:12:55,908

but I had a crew come in last week.

 

427

00:12:56,175 --> 00:12:56,609

Um,

 

428

00:12:57,877 --> 00:12:59,378

and I'm going to

 

429

00:12:59,378 --> 00:13:00,279

tell you what they said,

 

430

00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:01,380

and I got to talking a little bit

 

431

00:13:01,380 --> 00:13:02,014

about this crew.

 

432

00:13:02,014 --> 00:13:02,414

I'm going to

 

433

00:13:02,414 --> 00:13:03,482

jump off track here

 

434

00:13:03,482 --> 00:13:06,552

because it was like a day at the U.N.

 

435

00:13:06,552 --> 00:13:07,920

with that crew

 

436

00:13:10,422 --> 00:13:11,590

when I was talking to him

 

437

00:13:11,590 --> 00:13:13,726

about hot coating finishes. Right.

 

438

00:13:14,260 --> 00:13:16,562

How you can't hack code oil and you can't

 

439

00:13:16,762 --> 00:13:18,798

and you cannot code the water.

 

440

00:13:18,798 --> 00:13:21,167

The 48 hour hacker window.

 

441

00:13:22,401 --> 00:13:23,569

Well, this

 

442

00:13:23,569 --> 00:13:25,437

this guy is like, well, what do you

 

443

00:13:25,437 --> 00:13:26,772

what are you talking about?

 

444

00:13:26,772 --> 00:13:28,841

So I really started to

 

445

00:13:28,841 --> 00:13:31,143

talk to the crew about it.

 

446

00:13:31,143 --> 00:13:33,479

Now, the owner had stepped outside,

 

447

00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:33,746

you know,

 

448

00:13:33,746 --> 00:13:36,182

he had to make a call or something.

 

449

00:13:36,182 --> 00:13:38,818

And two of his workers are scream ing to

 

450

00:13:39,952 --> 00:13:41,453

get in here.

 

451

00:13:41,453 --> 00:13:44,657

You got to hear this.

 

452

00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:45,724

I was the same guy.

 

453

00:13:45,724 --> 00:13:46,025

I mean,

 

454

00:13:46,025 --> 00:13:48,460

I used water bass for years and years

 

455

00:13:48,961 --> 00:13:50,429

until literally one day

 

456

00:13:50,429 --> 00:13:52,464

I was just sitting in the truck

 

457

00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,500

having lunch with Pete, and I started to

 

458

00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:55,367

read the can

 

459

00:13:56,368 --> 00:13:57,403

and it said, no need

 

460

00:13:57,403 --> 00:13:58,771

to upgrade

 

461

00:13:58,771 --> 00:14:01,907

as long as you're under 8 hours.

 

462

00:14:01,907 --> 00:14:03,242

And I was like, What?

 

463

00:14:03,542 --> 00:14:05,678

And and I said to Peter, go read this.

 

464

00:14:05,711 --> 00:14:06,612

Is this right?

 

465

00:14:06,612 --> 00:14:08,480

What I said to him,

 

466

00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,149

What do you think that means?

 

467

00:14:10,149 --> 00:14:11,116

Yeah,

 

468

00:14:11,250 --> 00:14:12,785

surely it doesn't mean

 

469

00:14:12,785 --> 00:14:14,520

we don't have to bump it.

 

470

00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:15,921

Because you have to buff

 

471

00:14:15,921 --> 00:14:16,956

in between codes,

 

472

00:14:16,956 --> 00:14:18,691

whether it's oil or water or anything.

 

473

00:14:18,691 --> 00:14:19,391

Well,

 

474

00:14:19,792 --> 00:14:22,261

they finally ran out, pulled the owner in

 

475

00:14:22,828 --> 00:14:25,030

and you know, this guy it

 

476

00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:28,634

they didn't realize that they had and

 

477

00:14:28,801 --> 00:14:30,970

and was one of those crews that

 

478

00:14:30,970 --> 00:14:32,738

he learned it from his uncle

 

479

00:14:32,738 --> 00:14:34,206

this is the way his uncle did it.

 

480

00:14:34,206 --> 00:14:36,942

So this is the way they did it.

 

481

00:14:36,942 --> 00:14:39,211

But, you know, they this crew also works

 

482

00:14:39,211 --> 00:14:40,279

on some brake jobs,

 

483

00:14:40,279 --> 00:14:42,615

you know, three or 4000 feet.

 

484

00:14:42,615 --> 00:14:44,250

They're buffing in between every code,

 

485

00:14:44,250 --> 00:14:45,751

clean and buff and everything.

 

486

00:14:45,751 --> 00:14:47,753

Well, you know, they were just

 

487

00:14:48,687 --> 00:14:50,022

they were just blown away.

 

488

00:14:50,022 --> 00:14:52,258

So even though I always thought,

 

489

00:14:52,258 --> 00:14:53,792

oh, that's an old myth and everybody

 

490

00:14:53,792 --> 00:14:54,293

knows it

 

491

00:14:55,294 --> 00:14:56,128

now, it's kind of

 

492

00:14:56,128 --> 00:14:57,930

why I threw it up there.

 

493

00:14:57,930 --> 00:14:59,965

Think about the labor savings, man.

 

494

00:15:00,466 --> 00:15:02,101

If you asked me, Mike,

 

495

00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:03,435

what I hated to do the worst

 

496

00:15:03,435 --> 00:15:04,103

in this industry.

 

497

00:15:04,103 --> 00:15:04,803

If I could take away

 

498

00:15:04,803 --> 00:15:06,138

one thing that we have to do,

 

499

00:15:06,138 --> 00:15:07,806

it'd be vacuuming.

 

500

00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:08,774

I mean, you

 

501

00:15:08,774 --> 00:15:11,310

vacuum in vacuum and vacuum and vacuum.

 

502

00:15:11,310 --> 00:15:13,178

So you have to break the floor.

 

503

00:15:13,178 --> 00:15:15,848

And to cut out that step

 

504

00:15:15,848 --> 00:15:17,583

because you're getting a chemical bond

 

505

00:15:17,583 --> 00:15:19,919

is huge, man. Good.

 

506

00:15:20,352 --> 00:15:20,686

All right.

 

507

00:15:20,686 --> 00:15:21,420

Hey, this crew

 

508

00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:24,990

I had, I'm going to give a shout out

 

509

00:15:24,990 --> 00:15:28,127

to the guys from above and beyond floors.

 

510

00:15:29,161 --> 00:15:31,363

Trenton, New Jersey,

 

511

00:15:31,363 --> 00:15:32,231

there are a couple of guys

 

512

00:15:32,231 --> 00:15:34,366

that came from Poland.

 

513

00:15:34,366 --> 00:15:36,001

One guy came from Kazakhstan.

 

514

00:15:36,001 --> 00:15:37,736

Another guy came from Mexico.

 

515

00:15:37,736 --> 00:15:39,838

So like I said, it was like

 

516

00:15:39,838 --> 00:15:42,741

it was like working in the U.N..

 

517

00:15:42,741 --> 00:15:43,742

I mean,

 

518

00:15:44,009 --> 00:15:45,210

I've said it before

 

519

00:15:45,210 --> 00:15:48,047

and nobody should have as much fun

 

520

00:15:48,047 --> 00:15:50,316

at school as we did at that school.

 

521

00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:51,550

I mean, just laughing

 

522

00:15:52,618 --> 00:15:53,452

the whole time.

 

523

00:15:53,452 --> 00:15:54,787

So we're almost done.

 

524

00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:56,021

We're probably halfway

 

525

00:15:56,021 --> 00:15:58,257

through the second day

 

526

00:15:58,257 --> 00:15:59,491

and the owner says to me,

 

527

00:15:59,491 --> 00:16:01,794

Rob, what are you beer,

 

528

00:16:01,794 --> 00:16:03,662

you know, beer or whiskey, man?

 

529

00:16:03,662 --> 00:16:05,197

So I said, You know,

 

530

00:16:05,197 --> 00:16:06,131

I really don't drink.

 

531

00:16:06,131 --> 00:16:07,900

I go once in a while,

 

532

00:16:07,900 --> 00:16:09,601

I'll have a Sambuca on the rocks.

 

533

00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:13,172

That's is like Sambuca.

 

534

00:16:13,172 --> 00:16:13,739

What's that guy?

 

535

00:16:13,739 --> 00:16:14,640

It's kind of I don't know.

 

536

00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,376

It's like a little more like a

 

537

00:16:17,643 --> 00:16:19,345

licorice type taste.

 

538

00:16:19,345 --> 00:16:22,047

I said, you know, I like it.

 

539

00:16:22,047 --> 00:16:22,414

Boom.

 

540

00:16:22,414 --> 00:16:24,483

The guy disappears.

 

541

00:16:25,050 --> 00:16:26,552

He comes back

 

542

00:16:26,552 --> 00:16:28,988

about 2 hours later.

 

543

00:16:28,988 --> 00:16:30,990

Oh, Fredo was helping Jeff for Fredo.

 

544

00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:33,926

He was also it was his crew, right?

 

545

00:16:34,293 --> 00:16:38,330

His guys, they brought Jeff

 

546

00:16:39,098 --> 00:16:41,333

gift wrap bottle of whiskey.

 

547

00:16:41,333 --> 00:16:42,134

Wow.

 

548

00:16:42,134 --> 00:16:45,537

They bought me gift wrap bottles in Buka,

 

549

00:16:45,537 --> 00:16:46,605

but it was wrapped to.

 

550

00:16:47,573 --> 00:16:48,407

And I.

 

551

00:16:48,540 --> 00:16:51,176

Get a nice gift I like that was nice.

 

552

00:16:51,810 --> 00:16:53,145

Anybody come to the schools?

 

553

00:16:53,145 --> 00:16:53,946

I love gifts.

 

554

00:16:53,946 --> 00:16:55,080

You keep giving me gifts.

 

555

00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,616

I'll take a gift any time. Great.

 

556

00:16:57,616 --> 00:16:59,852

So then he pulls out another bottle

 

557

00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,422

of Rosé Sambuca.

 

558

00:17:03,422 --> 00:17:06,058

I never even heard of it.

 

559

00:17:06,058 --> 00:17:08,060

He goes, Oh, you know, I got this for us.

 

560

00:17:08,060 --> 00:17:10,763

Blah, blah, blah. Eric Great.

 

561

00:17:10,763 --> 00:17:11,363

Next thing you know,

 

562

00:17:11,363 --> 00:17:12,965

he pulls out a bunch of plastic shot

 

563

00:17:12,965 --> 00:17:16,068

glasses in the middle of the school.

 

564

00:17:16,068 --> 00:17:18,103

He starts porn shots for everybody.

 

565

00:17:18,103 --> 00:17:20,639

So I was like, All right, the

 

566

00:17:22,474 --> 00:17:25,044

and so I thought, you know, some, like,

 

567

00:17:25,077 --> 00:17:26,545

I we really can't do that.

 

568

00:17:26,545 --> 00:17:29,581

And he goes, please, he goes in Poland,

 

569

00:17:30,949 --> 00:17:31,350

you know,

 

570

00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:33,152

this is how we show respect

 

571

00:17:33,152 --> 00:17:35,187

to our teachers.

 

572

00:17:35,187 --> 00:17:37,389

And he goes, this is you know,

 

573

00:17:37,389 --> 00:17:38,590

this is how we do it in Poland.

 

574

00:17:38,590 --> 00:17:40,259

So, you know,

 

575

00:17:40,259 --> 00:17:41,860

I said, okay, you know what?

 

576

00:17:41,860 --> 00:17:42,861

It's you know,

 

577

00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:46,098

one shot's not going to kill anybody.

 

578

00:17:46,465 --> 00:17:47,332

You know.

 

579

00:17:47,966 --> 00:17:49,034

We all have a shot

 

580

00:17:49,034 --> 00:17:50,102

and we get back to work.

 

581

00:17:50,102 --> 00:17:53,906

And I'm thinking, you know, don't run

 

582

00:17:53,906 --> 00:17:55,808

heavy machinery. Mhm.

 

583

00:17:55,808 --> 00:17:56,942

Oh next thing you know he comes

 

584

00:17:56,942 --> 00:17:59,178

walking around with another shot.

 

585

00:17:59,178 --> 00:18:01,580

I'm like oh all right wait a minute.

 

586

00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:02,347

You know,

 

587

00:18:04,016 --> 00:18:05,751

really this this'll be

 

588

00:18:05,751 --> 00:18:08,787

the end.

 

589

00:18:08,787 --> 00:18:10,589

They want to finish the bottle.

 

590

00:18:10,589 --> 00:18:11,423

So I was like, All right,

 

591

00:18:11,423 --> 00:18:13,358

we got to turn the machines off

 

592

00:18:13,358 --> 00:18:14,660

and we'll finish the rest of the day

 

593

00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:16,161

doing PowerPoint and testing

 

594

00:18:16,161 --> 00:18:16,962

and things like that.

 

595

00:18:16,962 --> 00:18:19,665

How about that? Okay.

 

596

00:18:19,665 --> 00:18:23,202

The craziest class I had ever seen.

 

597

00:18:23,202 --> 00:18:25,237

They had never pulled a T-bar.

 

598

00:18:25,237 --> 00:18:26,238

Okay?

 

599

00:18:26,405 --> 00:18:27,072

When I was showing them

 

600

00:18:27,072 --> 00:18:28,140

how to pull a T-bar.

 

601

00:18:28,140 --> 00:18:29,942

You want to talk about

 

602

00:18:29,942 --> 00:18:32,578

guys like a duck to water?

 

603

00:18:33,445 --> 00:18:34,813

I was like, okay,

 

604

00:18:34,813 --> 00:18:35,981

I was calling them liars.

 

605

00:18:35,981 --> 00:18:36,515

There's there's

 

606

00:18:36,515 --> 00:18:39,051

no way you've never pulled the T-bar.

 

607

00:18:39,051 --> 00:18:39,485

Well.

 

608

00:18:39,751 --> 00:18:41,453

Or, you know, whether the alcohol

 

609

00:18:41,453 --> 00:18:43,489

made me a better instructor, maybe it.

 

610

00:18:43,622 --> 00:18:43,989

Wasn't

 

611

00:18:45,057 --> 00:18:45,858

me.

 

612

00:18:46,859 --> 00:18:48,560

But the that like

 

613

00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:48,861

I said,

 

614

00:18:48,861 --> 00:18:51,630

it was like a shot out of the U.N.

 

615

00:18:51,630 --> 00:18:54,299

funniest bunch of guys, you know, here

 

616

00:18:54,333 --> 00:18:55,200

and all that.

 

617

00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,869

You know, the other thing about this job,

 

618

00:18:56,869 --> 00:18:59,671

my job is I do train a lot of guys from

 

619

00:19:00,806 --> 00:19:03,976

all over the world, you know, and man,

 

620

00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:04,810

when you start

 

621

00:19:04,810 --> 00:19:06,979

and I don't want to get political here,

 

622

00:19:06,979 --> 00:19:07,980

but when you start hearing

 

623

00:19:07,980 --> 00:19:09,114

what really goes on in

 

624

00:19:09,114 --> 00:19:11,517

socialist countries

 

625

00:19:11,617 --> 00:19:13,352

Russia, Cuba, Poland,

 

626

00:19:13,352 --> 00:19:16,688

Kazakhstan, Ukraine, wow.

 

627

00:19:16,922 --> 00:19:18,457

You people

 

628

00:19:18,457 --> 00:19:20,325

people really need to hear these stories

 

629

00:19:20,325 --> 00:19:21,827

because it's just incredible

 

630

00:19:21,827 --> 00:19:23,929

what those people go through

 

631

00:19:23,929 --> 00:19:26,231

and what they go through to get here to,

 

632

00:19:26,231 --> 00:19:30,002

you know, get away from that and mayhem.

 

633

00:19:30,002 --> 00:19:31,803

We're watching a movie right

 

634

00:19:31,803 --> 00:19:32,538

now, my wife and I.

 

635

00:19:32,538 --> 00:19:33,939

It takes place in a different country.

 

636

00:19:33,939 --> 00:19:35,507

And holy smokes,

 

637

00:19:35,507 --> 00:19:36,842

I told you guys that everybody

 

638

00:19:36,842 --> 00:19:38,310

should have to watch this movie

 

639

00:19:38,310 --> 00:19:40,212

that never complains about what

 

640

00:19:40,212 --> 00:19:41,713

we have here, so.

 

641

00:19:41,713 --> 00:19:42,481

All right,

 

642

00:19:42,481 --> 00:19:44,917

we got a bunch more to get through,

 

643

00:19:44,917 --> 00:19:46,018

so go ahead. I like your.

 

644

00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:47,319

I like your list here, man.

 

645

00:19:47,319 --> 00:19:48,420

So why don't you just keep going?

 

646

00:19:48,420 --> 00:19:49,488

Oh, this was one

 

647

00:19:49,488 --> 00:19:51,924

my grandfather used to say, Robby,

 

648

00:19:51,924 --> 00:19:54,126

the worse it stinks, the better it is.

 

649

00:19:54,126 --> 00:19:56,428

Yeah. Talking about finish.

 

650

00:19:56,428 --> 00:19:58,297

And it was that same day

 

651

00:19:58,297 --> 00:19:59,765

I remember the guy

 

652

00:19:59,765 --> 00:20:00,732

looked like he was born

 

653

00:20:00,732 --> 00:20:02,000

milk out on the lanes

 

654

00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,902

and there was water based

 

655

00:20:03,902 --> 00:20:05,537

finish had no smell at all.

 

656

00:20:05,537 --> 00:20:06,939

And I'm thinking it's going to be the

 

657

00:20:06,939 --> 00:20:08,640

worst finish in the world if

 

658

00:20:09,875 --> 00:20:10,242

yeah.

 

659

00:20:10,342 --> 00:20:10,943

We all say.

 

660

00:20:10,943 --> 00:20:12,711

Well, it was the best.

 

661

00:20:12,711 --> 00:20:13,312

Yep.

 

662

00:20:14,346 --> 00:20:16,114

Finishes

 

663

00:20:17,382 --> 00:20:17,950

What do you call it?

 

664

00:20:17,950 --> 00:20:20,252

A wood filler.

 

665

00:20:20,252 --> 00:20:21,286

You know, that was old thing.

 

666

00:20:21,286 --> 00:20:23,522

I mean, it had had a stink.

 

667

00:20:23,522 --> 00:20:25,224

It had to have all them chemicals in it

 

668

00:20:25,224 --> 00:20:27,593

to be effective.

 

669

00:20:27,593 --> 00:20:30,229

All right, good stuff.

 

670

00:20:30,229 --> 00:20:31,463

Well, hell, keep going.

 

671

00:20:31,463 --> 00:20:33,098

I like your list deeper.

 

672

00:20:33,098 --> 00:20:34,733

The scratch is best

 

673

00:20:34,733 --> 00:20:36,902

for inner cold abrasion.

 

674

00:20:36,902 --> 00:20:38,270

And I guess

 

675

00:20:39,104 --> 00:20:40,272

this has got to be one

 

676

00:20:40,272 --> 00:20:42,040

for real old timers like you.

 

677

00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:42,874

When I

 

678

00:20:43,909 --> 00:20:45,043

remember we used to do

 

679

00:20:45,043 --> 00:20:47,045

in a code abrasion with

 

680

00:20:47,045 --> 00:20:48,313

a used 80 grits, right?

 

681

00:20:48,313 --> 00:20:50,482

Yeah. Yeah. All right. Yeah.

 

682

00:20:50,482 --> 00:20:51,450

And the gouges

 

683

00:20:51,450 --> 00:20:53,986

that we were putting in those floors to

 

684

00:20:53,986 --> 00:20:54,620

get that

 

685

00:20:54,620 --> 00:20:57,256

and get another code on their guys.

 

686

00:20:57,623 --> 00:21:00,659

And what I found out and you know,

 

687

00:21:00,659 --> 00:21:02,527

everybody knows I work for basic coatings

 

688

00:21:02,527 --> 00:21:04,062

and I work for Boehner.

 

689

00:21:04,062 --> 00:21:06,965

And when you hear the same thing, I think

 

690

00:21:07,766 --> 00:21:09,601

when I hear the same exact thing

 

691

00:21:09,601 --> 00:21:10,802

from both labs,

 

692

00:21:11,737 --> 00:21:12,271

you know, like, all

 

693

00:21:12,271 --> 00:21:13,872

right, this has got to be the,

 

694

00:21:13,872 --> 00:21:15,440

you know, the real one.

 

695

00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,510

And both labs

 

696

00:21:18,510 --> 00:21:19,511

said the same thing,

 

697

00:21:19,511 --> 00:21:21,613

that it's not the depth of the scratch,

 

698

00:21:22,114 --> 00:21:24,182

it's actually how many scratches

 

699

00:21:24,716 --> 00:21:25,584

you're going to put in.

 

700

00:21:25,584 --> 00:21:27,286

The more scratches you get in there

 

701

00:21:27,286 --> 00:21:29,521

for, the better your adhesion.

 

702

00:21:29,521 --> 00:21:30,789

So, you know,

 

703

00:21:30,789 --> 00:21:33,825

my room pad is going to give you a

 

704

00:21:33,825 --> 00:21:35,160

you know, it's a 320 grit,

 

705

00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,261

so you're going to get that

 

706

00:21:36,261 --> 00:21:37,296

many more scratches

 

707

00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:38,797

than you would ever use

 

708

00:21:38,797 --> 00:21:41,333

on a used 120 screen or whatever. Yeah.

 

709

00:21:41,566 --> 00:21:44,102

And it's not the depth of the scratch

 

710

00:21:44,102 --> 00:21:45,771

that holds the finish.

 

711

00:21:45,771 --> 00:21:48,240

It's the number of scratches.

 

712

00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,442

Yeah, it's funny.

 

713

00:21:50,442 --> 00:21:52,110

As soon as you said that,

 

714

00:21:52,110 --> 00:21:54,680

it brought back memories of,

 

715

00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,348

you know, having my back to use screens

 

716

00:21:56,348 --> 00:21:58,450

and kind of feeling them, well,

 

717

00:21:58,717 --> 00:22:01,019

I'll use this, this, this used enough

 

718

00:22:01,586 --> 00:22:02,821

or not having a new one

 

719

00:22:02,821 --> 00:22:04,056

and going out into the garage

 

720

00:22:04,056 --> 00:22:05,924

and burning it on the concrete

 

721

00:22:05,924 --> 00:22:07,459

to get some of that aggressiveness

 

722

00:22:07,459 --> 00:22:09,594

up like a 150 screen.

 

723

00:22:09,594 --> 00:22:10,929

So I could trust it.

 

724

00:22:10,929 --> 00:22:11,463

And then we start

 

725

00:22:11,463 --> 00:22:13,532

in the back of the house, scared to death

 

726

00:22:13,532 --> 00:22:15,100

that it was going to leave, you know,

 

727

00:22:15,100 --> 00:22:17,035

hey, any any scratches in the floor.

 

728

00:22:17,035 --> 00:22:18,303

So, I mean, I don't miss those days.

 

729

00:22:19,738 --> 00:22:21,006

That's what I love about the.

 

730

00:22:21,006 --> 00:22:23,108

The maroon pads and our diamonds.

 

731

00:22:23,842 --> 00:22:24,509

Yeah.

 

732

00:22:24,810 --> 00:22:25,944

Man. Water bass finish.

 

733

00:22:25,944 --> 00:22:27,679

Take two of those 240 diamonds.

 

734

00:22:27,679 --> 00:22:30,415

Put in a double stacked room pad

 

735

00:22:30,415 --> 00:22:31,950

and you will just

 

736

00:22:31,950 --> 00:22:35,220

barely removes any depth to finish.

 

737

00:22:35,587 --> 00:22:39,157

Yeah, but when I did that, Jim,

 

738

00:22:39,157 --> 00:22:41,026

a couple of years ago,

 

739

00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:43,595

that was the exact system we used

 

740

00:22:45,831 --> 00:22:48,300

the maroon pads with the diamonds

 

741

00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:52,170

on, you know, diamonds underneath.

 

742

00:22:52,170 --> 00:22:54,573

We laid down a CO two 350

 

743

00:22:54,573 --> 00:22:57,409

and we came back in the next day

 

744

00:22:57,409 --> 00:23:00,045

and the custodian goes, It's not dry.

 

745

00:23:00,379 --> 00:23:02,781

Still not dry.

 

746

00:23:02,781 --> 00:23:05,550

And I looked at BOM and I go,

 

747

00:23:05,550 --> 00:23:07,953

If this isn't dry,

 

748

00:23:07,953 --> 00:23:09,388

we're in so much trouble.

 

749

00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:10,322

Because I think we had laid

 

750

00:23:10,322 --> 00:23:12,057

the code around 3:00.

 

751

00:23:12,057 --> 00:23:12,891

So

 

752

00:23:14,159 --> 00:23:15,660

what when you looked at that floor,

 

753

00:23:15,660 --> 00:23:17,462

it looked like we had just laid the code.

 

754

00:23:17,462 --> 00:23:19,598

It looked that what.

 

755

00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:20,432

Right.

 

756

00:23:20,532 --> 00:23:21,466

And it was

 

757

00:23:21,466 --> 00:23:22,467

it was dry as is on

 

758

00:23:22,467 --> 00:23:23,468

because the guy

 

759

00:23:23,602 --> 00:23:24,469

lost his breath

 

760

00:23:24,469 --> 00:23:26,838

when I took a step out on the floor.

 

761

00:23:26,838 --> 00:23:28,340

Yeah, I go, no, she's dry.

 

762

00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:30,242

And he's like, no way. I go, Yep, dry.

 

763

00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:32,544

Isabel walked right out on it. Wow.

 

764

00:23:32,778 --> 00:23:35,280

So, I mean, compared to the old days

 

765

00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,149

when we're like you said when you were

 

766

00:23:39,117 --> 00:23:41,820

you were doubling up 150 screen.

 

767

00:23:41,820 --> 00:23:43,188

So it wouldn't

 

768

00:23:43,321 --> 00:23:44,990

the amazing what we can now.

 

769

00:23:44,990 --> 00:23:46,291

Oh man is

 

770

00:23:46,291 --> 00:23:46,892

when you

 

771

00:23:46,892 --> 00:23:48,326

look at the advances in the industry

 

772

00:23:48,326 --> 00:23:51,363

that's surely is one of the one of the

 

773

00:23:51,363 --> 00:23:52,764

most notable ones

 

774

00:23:52,764 --> 00:23:53,198

the inner cold

 

775

00:23:53,198 --> 00:23:54,966

abrasion systems out there.

 

776

00:23:54,966 --> 00:23:55,367

Yeah.

 

777

00:23:55,367 --> 00:23:57,636

So and the diamonds game changer.

 

778

00:23:58,236 --> 00:24:00,338

Oh, yeah, yeah.

 

779

00:24:00,439 --> 00:24:02,474

All right, what else you got.

 

780

00:24:02,908 --> 00:24:03,108

Too?

 

781

00:24:03,108 --> 00:24:04,843

Part epoxy is the best

 

782

00:24:04,843 --> 00:24:10,148

for repairs and molding.

 

783

00:24:10,148 --> 00:24:13,018

I really through this one for you.

 

784

00:24:13,018 --> 00:24:14,653

Explain that one. No.

 

785

00:24:14,653 --> 00:24:15,086

Well, you're

 

786

00:24:15,086 --> 00:24:17,122

the national adhesives manager.

 

787

00:24:17,122 --> 00:24:18,390

I thought you'd have a blast

 

788

00:24:18,390 --> 00:24:21,359

with this one.

 

789

00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:22,060

Well.

 

790

00:24:22,260 --> 00:24:24,729

Or a two part epoxy is best.

 

791

00:24:24,763 --> 00:24:27,799

If the moves if anything moves,

 

792

00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:29,734

the epoxy shatters.

 

793

00:24:29,734 --> 00:24:36,241

And we have no bond.

 

794

00:24:36,241 --> 00:24:38,143

No. Wow.

 

795

00:24:38,143 --> 00:24:39,077

To to borrow

 

796

00:24:39,077 --> 00:24:39,611

two bucks

 

797

00:24:39,611 --> 00:24:41,680

is sometimes the best for repairs

 

798

00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,849

and molding.

 

799

00:24:43,849 --> 00:24:46,151

So I'm talking about wind shakes

 

800

00:24:46,685 --> 00:24:47,786

and stuff like that,

 

801

00:24:47,786 --> 00:24:48,386

you know what I mean?

 

802

00:24:48,386 --> 00:24:48,854

You're line

 

803

00:24:48,854 --> 00:24:50,155

cracks in the boards

 

804

00:24:50,155 --> 00:24:52,390

and that kind of stuff or, or,

 

805

00:24:53,692 --> 00:24:55,594

you know, that type of repair.

 

806

00:24:55,594 --> 00:24:56,928

For a board. Repair.

 

807

00:24:56,928 --> 00:24:57,462

Yeah.

 

808

00:24:57,462 --> 00:24:59,464

For a quick you know, for a quick one.

 

809

00:24:59,464 --> 00:25:00,832

Okay. Yeah.

 

810

00:25:00,832 --> 00:25:03,034

So I still like

 

811

00:25:03,034 --> 00:25:04,836

I think there's a place for them

 

812

00:25:04,836 --> 00:25:06,571

and I always have

 

813

00:25:06,571 --> 00:25:07,172

have a,

 

814

00:25:07,172 --> 00:25:09,207

you know, a party kid in my, in my band.

 

815

00:25:09,608 --> 00:25:10,542

We're doing repairs

 

816

00:25:10,542 --> 00:25:12,244

for just that, for like a wind shape.

 

817

00:25:12,244 --> 00:25:12,644

Okay.

 

818

00:25:12,644 --> 00:25:14,412

So I think what I should have said on

 

819

00:25:14,412 --> 00:25:15,780

this was

 

820

00:25:15,780 --> 00:25:18,416

when I said repairs, I meant patching.

 

821

00:25:18,416 --> 00:25:19,818

Okay. Okay.

 

822

00:25:19,818 --> 00:25:20,285

Hey, listen,

 

823

00:25:20,285 --> 00:25:21,853

no need to be embarrassed,

 

824

00:25:21,853 --> 00:25:25,524

so we'll go on to the next.

 

825

00:25:25,524 --> 00:25:27,425

Yeah, no, I see what you're saying.

 

826

00:25:27,425 --> 00:25:29,594

Yeah, for for repairs. Absolutely.

 

827

00:25:29,828 --> 00:25:31,963

Especially you want that floor

 

828

00:25:31,963 --> 00:25:33,632

to have the long Asian properties

 

829

00:25:33,632 --> 00:25:35,834

of, of the, of adhesive. Right.

 

830

00:25:35,834 --> 00:25:37,369

You don't want them so, so

 

831

00:25:38,370 --> 00:25:39,437

tight that they won't move

 

832

00:25:39,437 --> 00:25:40,472

it and give it all.

 

833

00:25:40,472 --> 00:25:41,940

You got to have some of that location.

 

834

00:25:41,940 --> 00:25:42,507

So yeah.

 

835

00:25:42,507 --> 00:25:45,010

And that in that regard angry.

 

836

00:25:45,010 --> 00:25:46,945

So that's what I meant by that.

 

837

00:25:46,945 --> 00:25:47,646

Okay.

 

838

00:25:47,913 --> 00:25:50,315

You're not going to use the old days.

 

839

00:25:50,315 --> 00:25:52,517

We used epoxy to patch everything. Yeah.

 

840

00:25:52,584 --> 00:25:53,251

That bad.

 

841

00:25:53,251 --> 00:25:55,353

That's the last thing you want to do.

 

842

00:25:55,353 --> 00:25:56,021

Yeah.

 

843

00:25:57,155 --> 00:25:57,522

All right.

 

844

00:25:57,522 --> 00:25:59,257

You and I need to have better production

 

845

00:25:59,257 --> 00:26:00,625

meetings, I think.

 

846

00:26:00,625 --> 00:26:06,197

Or at least a production meeting,

 

847

00:26:06,197 --> 00:26:06,831

you know?

 

848

00:26:06,831 --> 00:26:08,033

You know, things are tough

 

849

00:26:08,033 --> 00:26:09,534

if we're using all your notes.

 

850

00:26:09,534 --> 00:26:10,902

But go ahead.

 

851

00:26:11,169 --> 00:26:13,071

Go to the next

 

852

00:26:13,204 --> 00:26:15,373

little low cost tools, bent blade,

 

853

00:26:15,373 --> 00:26:16,641

save money.

 

854

00:26:17,375 --> 00:26:19,110

I have to say, I never did

 

855

00:26:19,110 --> 00:26:20,245

think that way.

 

856

00:26:20,245 --> 00:26:22,314

That was never moment that I thought,

 

857

00:26:22,314 --> 00:26:23,782

oh, I always thought.

 

858

00:26:24,883 --> 00:26:27,185

That that was so me.

 

859

00:26:27,185 --> 00:26:32,857

Really, I'm the opposite to a fault.

 

860

00:26:32,857 --> 00:26:33,992

I think it what.

 

861

00:26:33,992 --> 00:26:36,194

Makes my son

 

862

00:26:37,095 --> 00:26:39,164

and sometimes I still fall into that

 

863

00:26:40,231 --> 00:26:42,167

to that trap you know.

 

864

00:26:42,167 --> 00:26:43,268

And my kid says to me

 

865

00:26:43,268 --> 00:26:46,237

that if I see one more Diablo drill bit

 

866

00:26:46,237 --> 00:26:48,473

or Diablo sub plate,

 

867

00:26:48,473 --> 00:26:50,108

I'm going to bang in the head with it.

 

868

00:26:50,108 --> 00:26:51,743

You got to stop.

 

869

00:26:51,743 --> 00:26:52,811

And he was showing me,

 

870

00:26:52,811 --> 00:26:54,179

you know, his stoplights

 

871

00:26:54,179 --> 00:26:55,146

and yeah,

 

872

00:26:55,146 --> 00:26:57,315

you know, they're 8000 dollars, but,

 

873

00:26:58,083 --> 00:26:59,517

you know, make beautiful cuts there.

 

874

00:26:59,517 --> 00:27:02,153

Perfect where?

 

875

00:27:02,153 --> 00:27:04,856

Oh, man, I just got into that now.

 

876

00:27:05,056 --> 00:27:05,991

That's good.

 

877

00:27:05,991 --> 00:27:07,058

Oh, well,

 

878

00:27:07,058 --> 00:27:07,692

you know, I can buy

 

879

00:27:07,692 --> 00:27:09,127

five Diablo Blades

 

880

00:27:09,127 --> 00:27:11,363

compared to your one blade. Yeah.

 

881

00:27:11,963 --> 00:27:12,530

He's like, yeah,

 

882

00:27:12,530 --> 00:27:14,032

but a brand new Diablo blade

 

883

00:27:14,032 --> 00:27:15,900

isn't going to make a beautiful cut like

 

884

00:27:15,900 --> 00:27:17,335

my blade does. Yeah.

 

885

00:27:18,803 --> 00:27:19,638

And what I,

 

886

00:27:19,638 --> 00:27:21,106

you know, another

 

887

00:27:21,106 --> 00:27:23,408

one that he got me with was

 

888

00:27:23,408 --> 00:27:25,710

his first tool, Palm Sander.

 

889

00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:28,246

I don't know what he paid for.

 

890

00:27:28,246 --> 00:27:28,913

I think he told me

 

891

00:27:28,913 --> 00:27:30,949

paid like 400 bucks or something.

 

892

00:27:30,949 --> 00:27:33,051

I'm like, what are. You out of your mind?

 

893

00:27:33,051 --> 00:27:34,185

I can buy

 

894

00:27:34,252 --> 00:27:37,355

I can buy ten Palm Sanders for $400.

 

895

00:27:37,622 --> 00:27:38,356

Yeah.

 

896

00:27:38,556 --> 00:27:40,258

And he goes just,

 

897

00:27:40,258 --> 00:27:41,693

I'm going to save you some time.

 

898

00:27:41,693 --> 00:27:42,360

He goes, Don't say

 

899

00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:44,429

another word, just use it.

 

900

00:27:44,429 --> 00:27:46,765

Try it. Yeah.

 

901

00:27:46,798 --> 00:27:47,732

So

 

902

00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:50,402

I guess that was my myth.

 

903

00:27:50,402 --> 00:27:52,337

Low cost tools, bits and blades

 

904

00:27:52,337 --> 00:27:53,705

save money.

 

905

00:27:53,738 --> 00:27:54,406

Yeah.

 

906

00:27:54,406 --> 00:27:56,007

Because they don't save time,

 

907

00:27:56,007 --> 00:27:57,242

I'll tell you that.

 

908

00:27:57,242 --> 00:27:58,276

No,

 

909

00:27:58,276 --> 00:27:58,543

you end

 

910

00:27:58,543 --> 00:27:59,244

up having to buy

 

911

00:27:59,244 --> 00:28:02,047

them over and over and over again.

 

912

00:28:02,313 --> 00:28:03,448

So, yeah, I'm

 

913

00:28:03,448 --> 00:28:04,983

kind of the other way around,

 

914

00:28:04,983 --> 00:28:05,850

maybe even to a fault.

 

915

00:28:05,850 --> 00:28:07,552

And I am, by the way,

 

916

00:28:07,552 --> 00:28:09,888

you know, I'm huge into bass fishing,

 

917

00:28:09,888 --> 00:28:11,322

you know, and I'm

 

918

00:28:11,322 --> 00:28:12,691

you know, I'm a tool guy,

 

919

00:28:12,691 --> 00:28:14,726

but I have no love

 

920

00:28:14,726 --> 00:28:16,895

for for old, old fishing equipment.

 

921

00:28:17,395 --> 00:28:20,065

I have no love for for old to

 

922

00:28:20,065 --> 00:28:21,933

I don't have know romantic

 

923

00:28:21,933 --> 00:28:23,535

feel about old tools.

 

924

00:28:23,535 --> 00:28:25,570

Like some guys would put all stars

 

925

00:28:25,603 --> 00:28:27,105

in their house or in their

 

926

00:28:27,105 --> 00:28:28,473

their man cave or something

 

927

00:28:28,473 --> 00:28:29,774

or they'll put, you know,

 

928

00:28:29,774 --> 00:28:31,643

or they want to buy old fishing equipment

 

929

00:28:31,643 --> 00:28:32,844

because oh, it's all

 

930

00:28:32,844 --> 00:28:34,479

I have zero interest in that.

 

931

00:28:34,479 --> 00:28:36,915

I want the best technology you can get.

 

932

00:28:36,915 --> 00:28:39,084

So that same with like all Corvettes

 

933

00:28:39,084 --> 00:28:40,018

and everything.

 

934

00:28:40,018 --> 00:28:41,152

I love the way they look,

 

935

00:28:41,152 --> 00:28:41,619

but what I,

 

936

00:28:41,619 --> 00:28:42,454

what I spend the money

 

937

00:28:42,454 --> 00:28:44,823

on a really nice old car like that.

 

938

00:28:45,023 --> 00:28:47,192

No, because it doesn't have that air

 

939

00:28:47,192 --> 00:28:48,793

that comes up to your seat.

 

940

00:28:48,793 --> 00:28:49,561

Have you ever had one of

 

941

00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:50,862

those, by the way? Oh,

 

942

00:28:51,896 --> 00:28:53,665

you haven't lived

 

943

00:28:53,665 --> 00:28:54,199

until you

 

944

00:28:54,199 --> 00:28:55,600

said in an automobile

 

945

00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,670

that has cold air flowing up your butt.

 

946

00:28:59,671 --> 00:29:01,172

I'm telling you, Rob.

 

947

00:29:01,172 --> 00:29:02,640

This is important to you.

 

948

00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,676

I was hugely important.

 

949

00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:06,478

I was in an F-150 truck.

 

950

00:29:06,478 --> 00:29:07,846

I think it was

 

951

00:29:07,846 --> 00:29:09,614

driving to a jobsite in Michigan

 

952

00:29:09,614 --> 00:29:11,282

with somebody looking at a job.

 

953

00:29:11,282 --> 00:29:12,951

It was hot. It could be sweating.

 

954

00:29:12,951 --> 00:29:14,419

It was hot driving down a road.

 

955

00:29:14,419 --> 00:29:17,555

I said, oh, my God, is there like

 

956

00:29:17,555 --> 00:29:18,256

air conditioner

 

957

00:29:18,256 --> 00:29:20,391

flowing through the seat up into my body

 

958

00:29:20,391 --> 00:29:23,161

right now? You go? Yeah, I went.

 

959

00:29:23,161 --> 00:29:24,195

I got out my phone.

 

960

00:29:24,195 --> 00:29:25,430

I put that on my list of things

 

961

00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:27,132

I need to have in an automobile

 

962

00:29:27,132 --> 00:29:28,166

that was the greatest thing

 

963

00:29:28,166 --> 00:29:29,601

I've ever seen in my life.

 

964

00:29:29,601 --> 00:29:33,138

I have zero interest in the old 1968

 

965

00:29:34,105 --> 00:29:35,740

Z 28 Camaro.

 

966

00:29:35,740 --> 00:29:38,076

As much as I love the way they look

 

967

00:29:38,076 --> 00:29:40,311

with funky bucket seats or whatever,

 

968

00:29:40,311 --> 00:29:42,881

that doesn't have all the new technology.

 

969

00:29:43,615 --> 00:29:44,916

So I.

 

970

00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:47,452

I don't think there's any prettier car

 

971

00:29:47,452 --> 00:29:49,888

than a 72 stingray.

 

972

00:29:51,389 --> 00:29:51,723

Yeah.

 

973

00:29:51,723 --> 00:29:53,358

I mean,

 

974

00:29:53,358 --> 00:29:56,094

that is got to be the one of the most

 

975

00:29:56,728 --> 00:29:58,830

badass looking cars in the world.

 

976

00:29:59,230 --> 00:30:00,031

But

 

977

00:30:01,032 --> 00:30:02,667

what a horrible, right?

 

978

00:30:02,667 --> 00:30:04,869

Yeah, they all were.

 

979

00:30:04,869 --> 00:30:06,304

Yeah. Yeah.

 

980

00:30:06,471 --> 00:30:08,840

69 Chevelle, the Z, 28.

 

981

00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:11,442

All that all all in the RS Camaro is.

 

982

00:30:11,543 --> 00:30:13,578

Oh, man, they're beautiful to look at.

 

983

00:30:14,312 --> 00:30:15,914

No, give me that.

 

984

00:30:15,914 --> 00:30:16,181

Yeah.

 

985

00:30:16,181 --> 00:30:17,482

All right. We got so many.

 

986

00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,050

We're going to keep moving

 

987

00:30:19,284 --> 00:30:22,153

wood acclimated at my distributor.

 

988

00:30:22,153 --> 00:30:22,954

I actually never thought

 

989

00:30:22,954 --> 00:30:24,889

that was the case either.

 

990

00:30:25,123 --> 00:30:25,924

I never thought

 

991

00:30:25,924 --> 00:30:27,458

that it would exactly made my stupid.

 

992

00:30:27,458 --> 00:30:29,327

But I guess some people probably do.

 

993

00:30:29,327 --> 00:30:31,796

A lot of people do well,

 

994

00:30:31,796 --> 00:30:32,831

especially when

 

995

00:30:32,831 --> 00:30:34,032

the distributor tells, you

 

996

00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,502

know, we keep our

 

997

00:30:37,502 --> 00:30:41,439

we keep our place acclimated.

 

998

00:30:41,439 --> 00:30:42,373

Yeah.

 

999

00:30:42,373 --> 00:30:44,242

It's not acclimated to the job site.

 

1000

00:30:44,242 --> 00:30:45,743

Mm. Yeah, you're right.

 

1001

00:30:45,743 --> 00:30:46,344

Yeah.

 

1002

00:30:47,278 --> 00:30:47,912

All right.

 

1003

00:30:47,912 --> 00:30:49,247

Been doing this for 40 years.

 

1004

00:30:49,247 --> 00:30:50,448

I don't need no training.

 

1005

00:30:50,448 --> 00:30:55,086

I don't need no stinking training.

 

1006

00:30:55,086 --> 00:30:57,155

But Sierra madre,

 

1007

00:30:57,155 --> 00:30:58,323

the treasure of Sierra madre,

 

1008

00:30:58,323 --> 00:30:59,791

one of the greatest lines

 

1009

00:30:59,791 --> 00:31:00,625

ever in a movie.

 

1010

00:31:00,625 --> 00:31:02,727

We don't need those stinking badges.

 

1011

00:31:02,727 --> 00:31:03,962

Badges, badges.

 

1012

00:31:03,962 --> 00:31:05,897

We don't need no stinking badges.

 

1013

00:31:05,897 --> 00:31:06,731

That movie.

 

1014

00:31:06,831 --> 00:31:08,132

Is that where that came from?

 

1015

00:31:08,132 --> 00:31:09,334

I thought that came from a Clint

 

1016

00:31:09,334 --> 00:31:11,803

Eastwood movie. No,

 

1017

00:31:11,803 --> 00:31:14,505

I don't think so.

 

1018

00:31:14,505 --> 00:31:16,741

No, I know the scene. Yeah, definitely.

 

1019

00:31:17,275 --> 00:31:21,679

Not damning to look it up.

 

1020

00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:23,548

Speaking of movies,

 

1021

00:31:23,548 --> 00:31:25,516

why you're looking that up?

 

1022

00:31:25,817 --> 00:31:27,118

I watched the movie the other night.

 

1023

00:31:27,118 --> 00:31:27,952

I don't know if you've seen

 

1024

00:31:27,952 --> 00:31:31,155

if you ever seen the movie The Irishman.

 

1025

00:31:31,155 --> 00:31:33,992

No. I know you live it.

 

1026

00:31:33,992 --> 00:31:37,161

Hmm.

 

1027

00:31:37,161 --> 00:31:39,597

You haven't seen this one yet? No.

 

1028

00:31:39,597 --> 00:31:40,131

Is it new?

 

1029

00:31:41,132 --> 00:31:42,634

I think it

 

1030

00:31:42,634 --> 00:31:45,870

might be a year or two old Scorsese.

 

1031

00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:48,373

He did it. Pesci's in it.

 

1032

00:31:48,373 --> 00:31:49,874

De Niro.

 

1033

00:31:51,476 --> 00:31:52,277

I don't.

 

1034

00:31:52,277 --> 00:31:54,746

It doesn't ring a bell.

 

1035

00:31:54,812 --> 00:31:56,080

Um.

 

1036

00:31:56,915 --> 00:31:59,250

But yeah, it came from the 1948 film

 

1037

00:31:59,250 --> 00:32:01,052

The Treasure of Sierra madre.

 

1038

00:32:01,052 --> 00:32:01,953

Okay.

 

1039

00:32:02,553 --> 00:32:04,889

1948 classic.

 

1040

00:32:04,889 --> 00:32:05,456

Hey, I'm goin.

 

1041

00:32:05,456 --> 00:32:11,562

Sorry, I don't recall the movie, so.

 

1042

00:32:12,797 --> 00:32:14,866

Mm hmm.

 

1043

00:32:14,866 --> 00:32:16,334

There's another big star in it.

 

1044

00:32:16,334 --> 00:32:18,603

I can't think of his name.

 

1045

00:32:18,603 --> 00:32:19,237

Who is the guy

 

1046

00:32:19,237 --> 00:32:22,740

he was the coach in in any given Sunday.

 

1047

00:32:22,740 --> 00:32:24,742

Big time actor De Niro.

 

1048

00:32:24,742 --> 00:32:26,044

Not De Niro.

 

1049

00:32:26,644 --> 00:32:27,545

Al Pacino.

 

1050

00:32:27,545 --> 00:32:29,147

Pacino. Yeah.

 

1051

00:32:29,147 --> 00:32:30,982

So it's directed by Scorsese.

 

1052

00:32:30,982 --> 00:32:33,584

You Pacino's in it, Pesci's in it.

 

1053

00:32:33,584 --> 00:32:35,620

De Niro is in it.

 

1054

00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,322

It's about Jimmy Hoffa,

 

1055

00:32:37,322 --> 00:32:38,990

the whole Hoffa story.

 

1056

00:32:38,990 --> 00:32:40,858

I did see that movie.

 

1057

00:32:40,858 --> 00:32:42,660

I did see that movie. Yes.

 

1058

00:32:42,660 --> 00:32:45,063

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Where

 

1059

00:32:46,064 --> 00:32:47,765

Pacino was Hoffa.

 

1060

00:32:47,765 --> 00:32:48,566

Yes.

 

1061

00:32:48,566 --> 00:32:52,770

I thought he was a great Hoffa.

 

1062

00:32:52,770 --> 00:32:54,605

You know, he was.

 

1063

00:32:54,605 --> 00:32:56,341

But of over that

 

1064

00:32:56,341 --> 00:32:58,943

that mafia movie now I'm tired of

 

1065

00:32:59,344 --> 00:33:01,512

I they've been done there

 

1066

00:33:01,713 --> 00:33:03,247

they're played out

 

1067

00:33:03,748 --> 00:33:04,449

I.

 

1068

00:33:04,482 --> 00:33:05,950

I got

 

1069

00:33:05,950 --> 00:33:08,286

I kind of sound like such a snob here.

 

1070

00:33:09,554 --> 00:33:11,189

I really had a problem

 

1071

00:33:11,189 --> 00:33:13,291

with the aging of the characters.

 

1072

00:33:15,093 --> 00:33:16,260

Well, yeah.

 

1073

00:33:16,260 --> 00:33:17,261

See DeNiro

 

1074

00:33:17,261 --> 00:33:18,696

trying to play

 

1075

00:33:18,696 --> 00:33:20,832

a guy in his early twenties.

 

1076

00:33:20,832 --> 00:33:21,799

It just.

 

1077

00:33:22,266 --> 00:33:24,002

It was confusing.

 

1078

00:33:24,469 --> 00:33:26,537

I would hope that they just find somebody

 

1079

00:33:26,537 --> 00:33:28,206

that kind of look like him

 

1080

00:33:28,206 --> 00:33:30,141

and do it that way.

 

1081

00:33:30,141 --> 00:33:31,843

But when they are all playing younger

 

1082

00:33:31,843 --> 00:33:33,644

versions of themselves.

 

1083

00:33:33,644 --> 00:33:34,312

Yeah.

 

1084

00:33:35,046 --> 00:33:36,447

It was a long movie too.

 

1085

00:33:36,447 --> 00:33:37,215

I had to take a break

 

1086

00:33:37,215 --> 00:33:38,716

there in that movie.

 

1087

00:33:38,783 --> 00:33:41,586

Okay, so, okay, so since you said that,

 

1088

00:33:41,853 --> 00:33:42,420

I just

 

1089

00:33:42,420 --> 00:33:44,155

I saw not too long ago

 

1090

00:33:44,155 --> 00:33:46,858

Clint Eastwood's last movie, Cry Macho,

 

1091

00:33:46,858 --> 00:33:48,626

that Drew needs to stop making movies

 

1092

00:33:48,626 --> 00:33:49,861

for me to get a hold of him

 

1093

00:33:50,895 --> 00:33:53,064

as the worst damn movie ever see my life.

 

1094

00:33:53,064 --> 00:33:54,098

And in one part of the movie,

 

1095

00:33:54,098 --> 00:33:56,401

he's on a horse training a horse.

 

1096

00:33:56,401 --> 00:33:57,468

And but then they showed him

 

1097

00:33:57,468 --> 00:33:58,903

when the horse is going crazy.

 

1098

00:33:58,903 --> 00:33:59,837

It was a wide shot

 

1099

00:33:59,837 --> 00:34:02,106

from like 60 yards away.

 

1100

00:34:02,106 --> 00:34:02,740

I kept thinking,

 

1101

00:34:02,740 --> 00:34:03,408

if that man falls,

 

1102

00:34:03,408 --> 00:34:04,575

that horse of that horse,

 

1103

00:34:04,575 --> 00:34:06,144

he's going to break a hill.

 

1104

00:34:06,644 --> 00:34:07,712

And then he had a love interest.

 

1105

00:34:07,712 --> 00:34:08,579

It was like

 

1106

00:34:09,013 --> 00:34:11,115

45 years old, younger than him.

 

1107

00:34:11,115 --> 00:34:12,150

Oh, if I can get rhythm,

 

1108

00:34:12,150 --> 00:34:13,051

get out of here with that.

 

1109

00:34:13,051 --> 00:34:15,153

Come on, man is over.

 

1110

00:34:15,153 --> 00:34:16,721

I love you, man. But it's it's.

 

1111

00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:19,290

Everybody's got to show, play. All right.

 

1112

00:34:19,290 --> 00:34:22,193

What do you think of the mule?

 

1113

00:34:22,193 --> 00:34:25,296

The mule. The mule.

 

1114

00:34:25,463 --> 00:34:26,764

Oh, I didn't like it.

 

1115

00:34:26,764 --> 00:34:27,932

Didn't like it.

 

1116

00:34:28,032 --> 00:34:29,467

No, I'm. I'm over him.

 

1117

00:34:29,467 --> 00:34:30,134

I mean, you know.

 

1118

00:34:30,134 --> 00:34:32,503

Like his his really old guy, Gran.

 

1119

00:34:32,503 --> 00:34:33,504

Torino.

 

1120

00:34:33,504 --> 00:34:34,639

Now, you remember him

 

1121

00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:35,440

back in the day

 

1122

00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,176

when he was the man in the snow.

 

1123

00:34:38,176 --> 00:34:39,043

I didn't like the mule

 

1124

00:34:40,912 --> 00:34:41,212

here.

 

1125

00:34:41,279 --> 00:34:42,213

Yeah, I like Gran

 

1126

00:34:42,213 --> 00:34:43,648

Torino, oddly enough, a little bit,

 

1127

00:34:43,648 --> 00:34:44,582

because it was kind of more

 

1128

00:34:44,582 --> 00:34:45,116

his character.

 

1129

00:34:45,116 --> 00:34:46,250

He's a tough guy,

 

1130

00:34:46,250 --> 00:34:48,719

and and it worked in that movie, so.

 

1131

00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:49,253

Yeah.

 

1132

00:34:50,154 --> 00:34:50,755

All right.

 

1133

00:34:50,755 --> 00:34:51,889

What else you got?

 

1134

00:34:52,056 --> 00:34:53,791

I don't know where we're doing.

 

1135

00:34:53,791 --> 00:34:54,692

Finished guinea pigs

 

1136

00:34:54,692 --> 00:34:57,728

with a screen and go.

 

1137

00:34:57,728 --> 00:34:59,430

I have to say.

 

1138

00:35:00,331 --> 00:35:01,766

No way.

 

1139

00:35:01,866 --> 00:35:02,600

Yeah.

 

1140

00:35:03,534 --> 00:35:05,069

If it's being one

 

1141

00:35:05,069 --> 00:35:06,871

you put finish on top of floor

 

1142

00:35:06,871 --> 00:35:08,372

that's playing

 

1143

00:35:08,473 --> 00:35:09,841

usually it's just going to cause

 

1144

00:35:09,841 --> 00:35:11,042

more paneling.

 

1145

00:35:11,042 --> 00:35:13,377

Finish dries, it pulls tight,

 

1146

00:35:13,377 --> 00:35:14,078

it pulls tight.

 

1147

00:35:14,078 --> 00:35:15,780

It's going to find weak spots

 

1148

00:35:15,780 --> 00:35:17,582

that's going to peel again.

 

1149

00:35:17,582 --> 00:35:18,449

Yeah. Yeah.

 

1150

00:35:18,449 --> 00:35:20,418

You get a feeling for

 

1151

00:35:20,418 --> 00:35:22,687

a screen and coat isn't going to fix it.

 

1152

00:35:22,687 --> 00:35:24,388

You got a sander.

 

1153

00:35:24,689 --> 00:35:26,891

Like putting a house on a bad foundation.

 

1154

00:35:26,891 --> 00:35:28,259

It just doesn't. Doesn't work.

 

1155

00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:30,528

Yeah, exactly. Exactly.

 

1156

00:35:32,130 --> 00:35:34,065

But it runs any direction.

 

1157

00:35:34,065 --> 00:35:39,170

It's spinning circular.

 

1158

00:35:39,170 --> 00:35:39,871

Yeah, we know.

 

1159

00:35:39,871 --> 00:35:42,907

We got to clock the bumpers.

 

1160

00:35:42,907 --> 00:35:43,941

And it's amazing

 

1161

00:35:43,941 --> 00:35:46,277

how many guys come to the school.

 

1162

00:35:46,277 --> 00:35:47,879

I guess it's because I'm in training.

 

1163

00:35:47,879 --> 00:35:49,447

I've been training for a long time.

 

1164

00:35:49,447 --> 00:35:51,415

So, you know, a lot of this stuff

 

1165

00:35:51,415 --> 00:35:53,684

just seems like second nature.

 

1166

00:35:53,684 --> 00:35:54,285

But

 

1167

00:35:55,353 --> 00:35:56,821

there's a lot of people out there,

 

1168

00:35:56,821 --> 00:35:58,556

a lot of guys come to the schools like,

 

1169

00:35:58,556 --> 00:35:59,891

come on, it doesn't really matter.

 

1170

00:35:59,891 --> 00:36:02,393

Does it matter whether you can?

 

1171

00:36:02,393 --> 00:36:03,227

You know,

 

1172

00:36:03,361 --> 00:36:03,995

one of the things

 

1173

00:36:03,995 --> 00:36:04,829

I've been showing guys,

 

1174

00:36:04,829 --> 00:36:07,031

you can only heal it on that right

 

1175

00:36:07,031 --> 00:36:09,367

corner. Mm hmm.

 

1176

00:36:09,367 --> 00:36:09,667

You know,

 

1177

00:36:09,667 --> 00:36:10,902

you try handling it to the left.

 

1178

00:36:10,902 --> 00:36:12,003

Doesn't go.

 

1179

00:36:12,003 --> 00:36:12,403

To work.

 

1180

00:36:12,403 --> 00:36:15,573

Yeah, doesn't work. So

 

1181

00:36:15,573 --> 00:36:19,677

clock in the buffer.

 

1182

00:36:19,677 --> 00:36:20,945

Big machines

 

1183

00:36:20,945 --> 00:36:23,147

go left to right or right to left.

 

1184

00:36:23,147 --> 00:36:23,748

It doesn't matter.

 

1185

00:36:25,416 --> 00:36:27,752

But actually, though it does.

 

1186

00:36:27,752 --> 00:36:29,086

It does matter.

 

1187

00:36:29,086 --> 00:36:30,755

Yeah. You can run them the wrong way.

 

1188

00:36:30,755 --> 00:36:32,924

Don't get me wrong. You can. They'll run.

 

1189

00:36:32,957 --> 00:36:34,158

They'll cut

 

1190

00:36:35,026 --> 00:36:36,761

the problem with running them

 

1191

00:36:36,761 --> 00:36:38,095

from the right side of the room

 

1192

00:36:38,095 --> 00:36:39,597

to the left

 

1193

00:36:39,764 --> 00:36:41,966

is you have that outside wheel

 

1194

00:36:43,601 --> 00:36:45,836

that's not going to run where

 

1195

00:36:45,836 --> 00:36:48,105

the sand or has sand it. Yeah yeah.

 

1196

00:36:48,439 --> 00:36:49,907

So anything it hits

 

1197

00:36:49,907 --> 00:36:54,011

it telegraphs to the cut head.

 

1198

00:36:54,011 --> 00:36:55,913

Yeah, that's a fact.

 

1199

00:36:55,913 --> 00:36:57,048

And I know some guys

 

1200

00:36:57,048 --> 00:36:58,849

still have a hard time with that one.

 

1201

00:36:58,849 --> 00:37:00,284

These. Yeah, I've never had any problems.

 

1202

00:37:00,284 --> 00:37:01,285

I've never had any problems.

 

1203

00:37:01,285 --> 00:37:02,153

I run the belt.

 

1204

00:37:02,153 --> 00:37:03,487

They're right to left,

 

1205

00:37:03,487 --> 00:37:04,922

but they are truly designed

 

1206

00:37:04,922 --> 00:37:06,457

to run left to right.

 

1207

00:37:06,457 --> 00:37:08,159

In the old days, the drum Sanders.

 

1208

00:37:08,159 --> 00:37:09,594

Well, drum Sanders are designed

 

1209

00:37:09,594 --> 00:37:10,962

to cut from right to left.

 

1210

00:37:10,962 --> 00:37:12,763

Yes. Back in the day.

 

1211

00:37:12,763 --> 00:37:13,531

But and also

 

1212

00:37:13,531 --> 00:37:15,967

they were usually slanted at an angle.

 

1213

00:37:16,467 --> 00:37:18,336

But back then to the Billy

 

1214

00:37:18,336 --> 00:37:19,870

wasn't near as good as it is right now.

 

1215

00:37:19,870 --> 00:37:21,172

We have to think Fergal

 

1216

00:37:21,172 --> 00:37:21,672

in those

 

1217

00:37:21,672 --> 00:37:23,107

those type of factors

 

1218

00:37:23,107 --> 00:37:24,675

for that in a way

 

1219

00:37:24,675 --> 00:37:27,378

that the milling of the floor

 

1220

00:37:27,378 --> 00:37:29,714

has gotten much, much, much better.

 

1221

00:37:29,714 --> 00:37:31,315

And you don't have so much over

 

1222

00:37:31,315 --> 00:37:32,483

when the stock wasn't

 

1223

00:37:32,483 --> 00:37:34,285

really picked up over the next one

 

1224

00:37:34,285 --> 00:37:36,320

and then you had a grind.

 

1225

00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,356

So much of that off the force

 

1226

00:37:38,356 --> 00:37:39,824

that's come out now

 

1227

00:37:39,824 --> 00:37:41,292

are way better

 

1228

00:37:41,292 --> 00:37:42,660

milled than they were in the past. So

 

1229

00:37:44,028 --> 00:37:45,796

the work coach the better.

 

1230

00:37:45,796 --> 00:37:49,267

Yeah that can that

 

1231

00:37:49,333 --> 00:37:51,302

100% I agree with that one

 

1232

00:37:51,302 --> 00:37:52,770

yeah you know I've had customers

 

1233

00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:54,372

tell me that hey

 

1234

00:37:54,872 --> 00:37:56,207

I'll give you another $500.

 

1235

00:37:56,207 --> 00:37:57,775

Just put one more code on it

 

1236

00:37:57,775 --> 00:37:58,609

and we'll tell them.

 

1237

00:37:58,609 --> 00:38:00,311

No, we want the money.

 

1238

00:38:00,311 --> 00:38:01,646

You've got three coats on there.

 

1239

00:38:01,646 --> 00:38:03,648

It doesn't need another coat.

 

1240

00:38:03,648 --> 00:38:04,882

You're working on that last good.

 

1241

00:38:04,882 --> 00:38:05,916

You got a lot of build there.

 

1242

00:38:05,916 --> 00:38:07,485

You got a great system

 

1243

00:38:07,485 --> 00:38:09,887

and you just don't need that next coat.

 

1244

00:38:10,354 --> 00:38:12,023

So save your money.

 

1245

00:38:12,023 --> 00:38:14,492

Well, sometimes to what?

 

1246

00:38:14,492 --> 00:38:15,660

What I used to do

 

1247

00:38:15,660 --> 00:38:18,396

and what I tell our students.

 

1248

00:38:18,396 --> 00:38:19,563

Now, you get the homeowner,

 

1249

00:38:19,563 --> 00:38:21,732

you know, they do sealers and do tacos.

 

1250

00:38:22,366 --> 00:38:23,501

You're good to go.

 

1251

00:38:23,501 --> 00:38:26,170

That's the that's our recommended system.

 

1252

00:38:26,671 --> 00:38:28,439

Well, you know, some of the homeowners.

 

1253

00:38:29,507 --> 00:38:29,807

Well, if

 

1254

00:38:29,807 --> 00:38:32,343

two top coats is good, I want four.

 

1255

00:38:32,343 --> 00:38:33,477

Yeah, okay.

 

1256

00:38:33,811 --> 00:38:34,745

No problem.

 

1257

00:38:34,745 --> 00:38:36,147

I'll give you four.

 

1258

00:38:36,147 --> 00:38:38,149

But it's got to be on my time frame.

 

1259

00:38:39,083 --> 00:38:41,052

I'll do the two and two,

 

1260

00:38:41,052 --> 00:38:42,687

then I'll come back in two weeks

 

1261

00:38:42,687 --> 00:38:44,055

a braid it

 

1262

00:38:44,121 --> 00:38:46,557

and then I'll give you another two coats.

 

1263

00:38:46,557 --> 00:38:46,991

That way

 

1264

00:38:46,991 --> 00:38:49,493

we know everything is completely cured.

 

1265

00:38:49,493 --> 00:38:51,896

Can't be just because they wanted.

 

1266

00:38:51,896 --> 00:38:53,230

But the other thing is, I never want

 

1267

00:38:53,230 --> 00:38:53,831

tell anybody.

 

1268

00:38:53,831 --> 00:38:54,498

No,

 

1269

00:38:54,965 --> 00:38:55,366

and that's

 

1270

00:38:55,366 --> 00:38:57,501

nice easy money there to right.

 

1271

00:38:58,402 --> 00:38:59,470

Give them what they want

 

1272

00:38:59,470 --> 00:39:02,773

but it has to be done correctly.

 

1273

00:39:02,773 --> 00:39:03,174

Yeah.

 

1274

00:39:03,174 --> 00:39:05,042

And I think too that you can the

 

1275

00:39:05,042 --> 00:39:05,476

the problem

 

1276

00:39:05,476 --> 00:39:07,244

with putting multiple coach on

 

1277

00:39:07,244 --> 00:39:08,012

and the like

 

1278

00:39:08,012 --> 00:39:09,213

I see you had to do a repair

 

1279

00:39:09,213 --> 00:39:10,281

there is to bring a finish

 

1280

00:39:10,281 --> 00:39:11,682

and you have to put a fourth coat on

 

1281

00:39:12,650 --> 00:39:14,719

then God forbid that doesn't go good.

 

1282

00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,120

Now you're looking at a fifth coat.

 

1283

00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:16,721

The more coat

 

1284

00:39:16,721 --> 00:39:17,121

you put on,

 

1285

00:39:17,121 --> 00:39:19,190

the more difficult becomes to coat.

 

1286

00:39:19,190 --> 00:39:20,224

I think it's like a surface

 

1287

00:39:20,224 --> 00:39:20,958

tension issue.

 

1288

00:39:20,958 --> 00:39:22,193

I don't know what what it is

 

1289

00:39:22,193 --> 00:39:24,161

exactly, but it does make it

 

1290

00:39:24,161 --> 00:39:25,429

get so slick.

 

1291

00:39:25,429 --> 00:39:27,598

The finish almost can't lay down

 

1292

00:39:27,598 --> 00:39:29,633

and it goes.

 

1293

00:39:29,633 --> 00:39:30,768

We get these little tiny,

 

1294

00:39:30,768 --> 00:39:32,403

tiny bubbles and stuff.

 

1295

00:39:32,403 --> 00:39:34,772

I think that especially with oil based,

 

1296

00:39:35,673 --> 00:39:36,273

the more you put

 

1297

00:39:36,273 --> 00:39:37,608

on, sometimes more challenging

 

1298

00:39:37,608 --> 00:39:38,909

it becomes to a.

 

1299

00:39:38,909 --> 00:39:41,345

And that two weeks that's for water bass.

 

1300

00:39:42,446 --> 00:39:43,080

Yeah.

 

1301

00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:43,614

If it's oil.

 

1302

00:39:43,614 --> 00:39:46,450

Bass I'll be back next month. Yeah. Yeah.

 

1303

00:39:46,517 --> 00:39:47,251

You want to make sure

 

1304

00:39:47,251 --> 00:39:49,320

that everything is cure

 

1305

00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:50,721

cured out completely

 

1306

00:39:50,721 --> 00:39:51,589

and correctly

 

1307

00:39:51,589 --> 00:39:53,324

before you start laying

 

1308

00:39:53,324 --> 00:39:54,792

multiple coats on there?

 

1309

00:39:54,792 --> 00:39:56,927

Cause, I mean, that's what we know.

 

1310

00:39:56,927 --> 00:39:57,361

That's why

 

1311

00:39:57,361 --> 00:39:58,529

we recommend our,

 

1312

00:39:58,529 --> 00:40:00,865

you know, our system to to

 

1313

00:40:00,898 --> 00:40:02,533

we know everything's going to cure root

 

1314

00:40:03,501 --> 00:40:04,635

correctly.

 

1315

00:40:05,002 --> 00:40:06,470

There's something also to be said for

 

1316

00:40:06,470 --> 00:40:07,438

if you really not get

 

1317

00:40:07,438 --> 00:40:08,072

we're out of the park

 

1318

00:40:08,072 --> 00:40:11,275

like it's a ten on a ten scale

 

1319

00:40:11,976 --> 00:40:12,410

I really do

 

1320

00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:13,778

want to put that next go down.

 

1321

00:40:13,778 --> 00:40:14,278

You know what I mean?

 

1322

00:40:14,278 --> 00:40:15,479

If we put up, we said a group

 

1323

00:40:15,479 --> 00:40:16,247

with three coats on

 

1324

00:40:16,247 --> 00:40:17,615

and we put three goats on,

 

1325

00:40:17,615 --> 00:40:19,250

we knocked it out of the park.

 

1326

00:40:19,250 --> 00:40:21,152

Let's let's take the wind,

 

1327

00:40:21,152 --> 00:40:21,752

you know what I mean?

 

1328

00:40:21,752 --> 00:40:22,953

And not tempt fate

 

1329

00:40:22,953 --> 00:40:24,889

and put that fourth coat on and now said,

 

1330

00:40:24,889 --> 00:40:26,157

you've got a job site

 

1331

00:40:26,157 --> 00:40:27,725

first thing going on.

 

1332

00:40:27,725 --> 00:40:28,359

Right.

 

1333

00:40:29,059 --> 00:40:30,995

All right.

 

1334

00:40:30,995 --> 00:40:33,130

First, personal protection

 

1335

00:40:33,431 --> 00:40:36,867

equipment is for wimps.

 

1336

00:40:36,867 --> 00:40:38,769

That was the mindset.

 

1337

00:40:38,769 --> 00:40:40,137

It really was.

 

1338

00:40:40,137 --> 00:40:40,638

Yeah. Yeah.

 

1339

00:40:40,638 --> 00:40:41,071

I remember

 

1340

00:40:41,071 --> 00:40:43,174

the name of this show, Wood Floor Myths.

 

1341

00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:44,608

Yeah.

 

1342

00:40:44,608 --> 00:40:47,311

That was remember the first time I put

 

1343

00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:50,514

my falling

 

1344

00:40:50,514 --> 00:40:51,248

and my

 

1345

00:40:51,248 --> 00:40:53,551

mother in law came out to a job one time

 

1346

00:40:55,152 --> 00:40:57,455

and it we were doing a 16

 

1347

00:40:57,488 --> 00:40:58,522

lane bowling alley

 

1348

00:40:58,522 --> 00:41:00,458

a couple towns away from where we live.

 

1349

00:41:00,458 --> 00:41:01,759

So they brought the guys to lunch.

 

1350

00:41:01,759 --> 00:41:03,461

They brought us lunch.

 

1351

00:41:03,461 --> 00:41:05,729

And when they came in, you know,

 

1352

00:41:05,763 --> 00:41:07,832

my mother in law's a nurse at the time,

 

1353

00:41:08,933 --> 00:41:11,235

and she could not believe

 

1354

00:41:11,235 --> 00:41:14,071

the the noise of the machines.

 

1355

00:41:14,338 --> 00:41:16,307

I mean, she was just,

 

1356

00:41:16,307 --> 00:41:17,775

you know, blown away.

 

1357

00:41:17,775 --> 00:41:19,210

She could hear it out in the parking lot.

 

1358

00:41:19,210 --> 00:41:21,779

But when she opened the doors to come in,

 

1359

00:41:21,779 --> 00:41:24,548

you know, so she said to Paul, she goes,

 

1360

00:41:24,582 --> 00:41:26,083

you better

 

1361

00:41:26,083 --> 00:41:27,718

get him some type of hair protection.

 

1362

00:41:27,718 --> 00:41:28,519

He's going to be death

 

1363

00:41:28,519 --> 00:41:31,856

by the time he's 40.

 

1364

00:41:31,856 --> 00:41:34,091

So she actually went out that day

 

1365

00:41:34,091 --> 00:41:35,559

and bought me a set of

 

1366

00:41:36,727 --> 00:41:38,162

hair and protection.

 

1367

00:41:38,162 --> 00:41:40,431

And I think they're called pelts

 

1368

00:41:40,431 --> 00:41:41,165

or they're

 

1369

00:41:41,165 --> 00:41:41,899

they're the ones that

 

1370

00:41:41,899 --> 00:41:43,834

the guys at the airport use,

 

1371

00:41:43,834 --> 00:41:45,302

you know, those big ones like that.

 

1372

00:41:45,302 --> 00:41:46,704

Yeah. Yeah.

 

1373

00:41:47,004 --> 00:41:48,739

And I remember Pauline said, Oh,

 

1374

00:41:48,739 --> 00:41:50,107

you know, I got you something.

 

1375

00:41:50,107 --> 00:41:52,443

My mother got you something.

 

1376

00:41:52,443 --> 00:41:54,011

And I remember looking at those things

 

1377

00:41:54,011 --> 00:41:55,746

and they will

 

1378

00:41:55,746 --> 00:41:58,182

laugh me out of the building, you know.

 

1379

00:41:58,716 --> 00:41:59,450

Yeah.

 

1380

00:41:59,517 --> 00:42:01,118

And anyways,

 

1381

00:42:01,118 --> 00:42:01,886

we're on a job

 

1382

00:42:01,886 --> 00:42:04,922

and I'm edging inside of a closet

 

1383

00:42:04,922 --> 00:42:07,091

and it's, you know, you,

 

1384

00:42:07,091 --> 00:42:09,493

you veg inside of a closet, right.

 

1385

00:42:09,493 --> 00:42:11,896

Without even protection.

 

1386

00:42:11,896 --> 00:42:13,464

So I was like, this is crazy.

 

1387

00:42:13,464 --> 00:42:15,766

I'm going to go get those those earmuffs.

 

1388

00:42:15,766 --> 00:42:16,934

I know. I got them on the truck.

 

1389

00:42:16,934 --> 00:42:18,969

I put those earmuffs on

 

1390

00:42:18,969 --> 00:42:21,839

and I was like, You got to be kidding me.

 

1391

00:42:21,906 --> 00:42:22,473

I mean,

 

1392

00:42:23,707 --> 00:42:25,709

but man, oh, man,

 

1393

00:42:25,709 --> 00:42:26,944

that crap

 

1394

00:42:26,944 --> 00:42:29,747

that I heard from every guy in that crew.

 

1395

00:42:29,747 --> 00:42:31,148

Yeah. And I was.

 

1396

00:42:31,148 --> 00:42:32,516

I was taking them off like, no,

 

1397

00:42:32,516 --> 00:42:33,584

you got to try these things.

 

1398

00:42:33,584 --> 00:42:35,152

This is unbelievable.

 

1399

00:42:35,152 --> 00:42:36,387

This is going to change your life.

 

1400

00:42:36,387 --> 00:42:39,657

And, you know, absolutely never.

 

1401

00:42:39,657 --> 00:42:40,658

No way.

 

1402

00:42:41,058 --> 00:42:41,725

Well, my.

 

1403

00:42:41,725 --> 00:42:42,326

Same guys

 

1404

00:42:42,326 --> 00:42:43,594

who were polar moisture carrier

 

1405

00:42:43,594 --> 00:42:45,095

with no respirators.

 

1406

00:42:45,095 --> 00:42:47,197

No. Yes.

 

1407

00:42:47,932 --> 00:42:50,034

You know, the old timers. Yep.

 

1408

00:42:50,034 --> 00:42:51,936

When I when I asked for iPad.

 

1409

00:42:51,936 --> 00:42:54,204

So like six months into the trade

 

1410

00:42:54,204 --> 00:42:55,739

and Diego all day long,

 

1411

00:42:55,739 --> 00:42:57,174

that's all I did for for six

 

1412

00:42:57,174 --> 00:42:58,375

months is pretty much hand-to-hand

 

1413

00:42:58,375 --> 00:42:59,510

and hook.

 

1414

00:42:59,510 --> 00:43:02,379

And I asked my uncle for an iPad

 

1415

00:43:02,379 --> 00:43:04,348

and I'll never forget what he said.

 

1416

00:43:04,348 --> 00:43:04,648

What are you,

 

1417

00:43:04,648 --> 00:43:05,182

one of those kids

 

1418

00:43:05,182 --> 00:43:10,321

that wants to live forever?

 

1419

00:43:10,321 --> 00:43:11,589

So all right.

 

1420

00:43:11,589 --> 00:43:12,489

So I put down a few

 

1421

00:43:12,489 --> 00:43:14,425

I put down a few of my list of myths

 

1422

00:43:14,425 --> 00:43:17,361

that I thought was was it was the case.

 

1423

00:43:17,361 --> 00:43:19,196

And it turned out not to be put off.

 

1424

00:43:19,196 --> 00:43:20,764

And one of them was Orbital Sanders.

 

1425

00:43:20,764 --> 00:43:21,765

I just talked about hands

 

1426

00:43:21,765 --> 00:43:23,567

and we looked at our nose

 

1427

00:43:23,567 --> 00:43:26,737

so much at Orbital Sanders Oh my gosh.

 

1428

00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:28,505

And when a new kid showed up on

 

1429

00:43:28,505 --> 00:43:29,273

a job and asked him,

 

1430

00:43:29,273 --> 00:43:30,441

he could use one

 

1431

00:43:30,441 --> 00:43:32,509

and we were disgusted with him,

 

1432

00:43:32,509 --> 00:43:33,277

you know what I mean?

 

1433

00:43:33,277 --> 00:43:35,012

Like nobody used orbital Sanders

 

1434

00:43:35,012 --> 00:43:35,913

we all hands

 

1435

00:43:35,913 --> 00:43:37,615

had was the only way to do it right

 

1436

00:43:37,615 --> 00:43:39,083

and they turned out beautiful.

 

1437

00:43:39,083 --> 00:43:39,950

Don't get me wrong.

 

1438

00:43:39,950 --> 00:43:41,318

We saying was so great.

 

1439

00:43:41,318 --> 00:43:43,187

They turned out beautiful.

 

1440

00:43:43,187 --> 00:43:44,421

But there's a

 

1441

00:43:44,421 --> 00:43:47,224

there's a better way to do it.

 

1442

00:43:47,224 --> 00:43:48,359

That's a real good one.

 

1443

00:43:48,359 --> 00:43:50,060

You're right. Yes. I felt the same way.

 

1444

00:43:51,662 --> 00:43:52,296

This is going to be

 

1445

00:43:52,296 --> 00:43:53,897

completely controversial.

 

1446

00:43:53,897 --> 00:43:55,699

This next one, I'm going to say

 

1447

00:43:55,699 --> 00:43:58,402

it's a it's a myth.

 

1448

00:43:58,402 --> 00:43:59,536

And I still some people

 

1449

00:43:59,536 --> 00:44:00,270

believe this today.

 

1450

00:44:00,270 --> 00:44:01,372

And I

 

1451

00:44:01,372 --> 00:44:02,573

I'm going to say something

 

1452

00:44:02,573 --> 00:44:03,340

as if people are going to go,

 

1453

00:44:03,340 --> 00:44:04,341

oh, he's out of his mind

 

1454

00:44:04,341 --> 00:44:06,210

or he's a hack or whatever.

 

1455

00:44:06,210 --> 00:44:07,578

You do not have to remove.

 

1456

00:44:07,578 --> 00:44:08,712

What's your molding on his hand?

 

1457

00:44:08,712 --> 00:44:10,014

Change up

 

1458

00:44:10,547 --> 00:44:11,382

now

 

1459

00:44:12,883 --> 00:44:14,585

is it smart to or whatever?

 

1460

00:44:14,585 --> 00:44:15,986

Because you can be money

 

1461

00:44:15,986 --> 00:44:16,820

for the shoe molding

 

1462

00:44:16,820 --> 00:44:18,989

or because you don't, you know,

 

1463

00:44:18,989 --> 00:44:20,057

the shoe moldings beat up.

 

1464

00:44:20,057 --> 00:44:21,158

You would put down the jewelry.

 

1465

00:44:21,158 --> 00:44:22,626

Okay, I get it.

 

1466

00:44:22,626 --> 00:44:24,361

But I can promise you,

 

1467

00:44:24,361 --> 00:44:25,763

I do not need to remove shoe

 

1468

00:44:25,763 --> 00:44:27,965

molding to sand the floor properly.

 

1469

00:44:27,965 --> 00:44:28,899

And I'm not talking

 

1470

00:44:28,899 --> 00:44:29,400

to be

 

1471

00:44:29,433 --> 00:44:31,201

leaving digs in the corner

 

1472

00:44:31,201 --> 00:44:32,970

or leaving a little, little halos

 

1473

00:44:32,970 --> 00:44:33,771

or anything, that kind of stuff.

 

1474

00:44:33,771 --> 00:44:35,072

There should not be any of that.

 

1475

00:44:35,072 --> 00:44:36,674

There should be zero of that.

 

1476

00:44:36,674 --> 00:44:37,708

But you can.

 

1477

00:44:37,708 --> 00:44:39,610

You can. Absolutely.

 

1478

00:44:39,610 --> 00:44:40,878

We did a lot of historical work.

 

1479

00:44:40,878 --> 00:44:41,679

We didn't want to

 

1480

00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:42,880

or couldn't take up shoe molding.

 

1481

00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,949

And you could get that at the edge.

 

1482

00:44:46,050 --> 00:44:47,651

You're right up on it.

 

1483

00:44:47,651 --> 00:44:49,353

Now, touching it doesn't doesn't count.

 

1484

00:44:49,353 --> 00:44:51,689

If you touch it, you can't touch it.

 

1485

00:44:51,689 --> 00:44:52,256

And then

 

1486

00:44:53,424 --> 00:44:54,992

sometimes you don't even need

 

1487

00:44:54,992 --> 00:44:55,993

to use a scraper.

 

1488

00:44:55,993 --> 00:44:56,694

You can

 

1489

00:44:56,694 --> 00:44:57,695

if you've got a good eye

 

1490

00:44:57,695 --> 00:44:58,262

and whatever you get,

 

1491

00:44:58,262 --> 00:44:59,263

you can get right up on there

 

1492

00:44:59,263 --> 00:45:01,999

without kissing the the the molding

 

1493

00:45:02,399 --> 00:45:03,867

or that you got to hook it,

 

1494

00:45:03,867 --> 00:45:05,069

use the scraper

 

1495

00:45:05,069 --> 00:45:06,737

to finish off the end of it.

 

1496

00:45:06,737 --> 00:45:09,139

So the myth the myth would be.

 

1497

00:45:09,540 --> 00:45:10,741

That you have to remove it ever.

 

1498

00:45:10,741 --> 00:45:12,876

You have to remove shoe molding. Yeah.

 

1499

00:45:13,444 --> 00:45:15,713

No, I wish I wish Pete was on the show.

 

1500

00:45:16,814 --> 00:45:18,315

Pete and I

 

1501

00:45:18,582 --> 00:45:21,118

hardly ever remove shoe molding.

 

1502

00:45:22,086 --> 00:45:23,520

Hardly ever.

 

1503

00:45:23,754 --> 00:45:26,023

It was just too much of a pain.

 

1504

00:45:26,390 --> 00:45:27,991

Yeah, to do it.

 

1505

00:45:27,991 --> 00:45:30,327

To get it back on there, put new on,

 

1506

00:45:30,327 --> 00:45:32,963

you know, whatever it was is

 

1507

00:45:32,963 --> 00:45:33,964

way too much.

 

1508

00:45:33,964 --> 00:45:37,034

You know, we got to the point where

 

1509

00:45:38,035 --> 00:45:39,369

we could get right up to the

 

1510

00:45:39,369 --> 00:45:41,371

molding without destroying it,

 

1511

00:45:41,371 --> 00:45:43,640

without really doing anything to it.

 

1512

00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:44,308

Yeah.

 

1513

00:45:44,541 --> 00:45:46,243

There are people that are adamant

 

1514

00:45:46,243 --> 00:45:48,045

that that adamant

 

1515

00:45:48,045 --> 00:45:50,314

that you have to remove the shoe molding.

 

1516

00:45:50,681 --> 00:45:52,316

I'm not saying they're wrong,

 

1517

00:45:52,316 --> 00:45:56,687

but I'm saying I'm right.

 

1518

00:45:56,687 --> 00:45:57,121

Okay.

 

1519

00:45:57,121 --> 00:45:58,789

So the other one is

 

1520

00:45:58,789 --> 00:46:00,991

you can't raise your prices.

 

1521

00:46:01,358 --> 00:46:03,560

And that would that you know,

 

1522

00:46:03,894 --> 00:46:05,062

we talk about this so much,

 

1523

00:46:05,062 --> 00:46:07,064

I don't want to be this a death, but

 

1524

00:46:07,064 --> 00:46:08,098

I absolutely thought

 

1525

00:46:08,098 --> 00:46:09,600

that there was a ceiling

 

1526

00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,702

and I thought that ceiling was was here.

 

1527

00:46:12,736 --> 00:46:14,772

And it is way farther up

 

1528

00:46:14,772 --> 00:46:15,973

than I ever thought possible.

 

1529

00:46:15,973 --> 00:46:16,707

And you can raise

 

1530

00:46:16,707 --> 00:46:18,242

and we're seeing guys today

 

1531

00:46:18,242 --> 00:46:19,610

that are actually making

 

1532

00:46:19,610 --> 00:46:21,044

seriously good money

 

1533

00:46:21,044 --> 00:46:21,678

because they don't

 

1534

00:46:21,678 --> 00:46:22,813

they don't have that limitation

 

1535

00:46:22,813 --> 00:46:23,847

in their mind

 

1536

00:46:23,847 --> 00:46:24,815

of where they need to be

 

1537

00:46:24,815 --> 00:46:26,984

because someone is at this price.

 

1538

00:46:26,984 --> 00:46:29,319

So now it is more

 

1539

00:46:31,221 --> 00:46:31,722

relevant

 

1540

00:46:31,722 --> 00:46:34,057

today than ever in our history.

 

1541

00:46:34,725 --> 00:46:36,160

Inflation has gone up higher

 

1542

00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:37,861

now than it ever has.

 

1543

00:46:37,861 --> 00:46:38,262

I mean,

 

1544

00:46:38,262 --> 00:46:39,463

you got to got

 

1545

00:46:39,463 --> 00:46:43,367

to got to raise your prices, you know,

 

1546

00:46:43,534 --> 00:46:45,002

the materials going to

 

1547

00:46:45,002 --> 00:46:46,203

whatever the labor is

 

1548

00:46:46,203 --> 00:46:48,038

and there's a lot of work out there

 

1549

00:46:48,038 --> 00:46:49,239

you've got to raise you has.

 

1550

00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,241

Gone up labor. Yeah.

 

1551

00:46:51,909 --> 00:46:54,778

Gas material everything travel

 

1552

00:46:54,945 --> 00:46:56,680

everything has gone up

 

1553

00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,415

so you have to raise your prices

 

1554

00:46:58,415 --> 00:46:59,817

just to survive.

 

1555

00:46:59,817 --> 00:47:01,585

Don't get stuck thinking

 

1556

00:47:01,585 --> 00:47:04,254

I got to be a nice guy,

 

1557

00:47:04,254 --> 00:47:05,689

be a nice guy to yourself

 

1558

00:47:05,689 --> 00:47:06,990

and raise your prices.

 

1559

00:47:06,990 --> 00:47:08,058

You have to raise your price.

 

1560

00:47:08,058 --> 00:47:12,262

Now again, Robyn, I are not accountants,

 

1561

00:47:12,796 --> 00:47:13,130

Robert,

 

1562

00:47:13,130 --> 00:47:13,597

I don't know

 

1563

00:47:13,597 --> 00:47:15,399

your business model or whatever.

 

1564

00:47:15,399 --> 00:47:17,000

But in the psychiatrist's.

 

1565

00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,602

Yeah, not yeah.

 

1566

00:47:18,602 --> 00:47:19,503

There's there a lot of us,

 

1567

00:47:19,503 --> 00:47:20,971

we're not doctors.

 

1568

00:47:20,971 --> 00:47:21,371

No.

 

1569

00:47:21,371 --> 00:47:24,675

In my, my opinion is only my opinion

 

1570

00:47:24,675 --> 00:47:26,977

is that this really, really

 

1571

00:47:27,744 --> 00:47:28,445

that was one thing

 

1572

00:47:28,445 --> 00:47:30,013

that I was stuck on as a young guy

 

1573

00:47:30,013 --> 00:47:32,583

thinking that to 75 is the max

 

1574

00:47:33,250 --> 00:47:34,885

because that's what the big guys

 

1575

00:47:34,885 --> 00:47:36,153

and that's what the, you know,

 

1576

00:47:36,153 --> 00:47:39,356

the high end guys are getting even then

 

1577

00:47:39,590 --> 00:47:41,959

I'm sure it was way further on

 

1578

00:47:41,959 --> 00:47:42,726

than we thought it was.

 

1579

00:47:42,726 --> 00:47:43,794

So that's one of them.

 

1580

00:47:43,794 --> 00:47:45,262

Every training,

 

1581

00:47:45,262 --> 00:47:48,365

almost every training I do, somebody will

 

1582

00:47:48,365 --> 00:47:50,067

whisper in my ear,

 

1583

00:47:50,067 --> 00:47:52,202

You can't get more than 250 this time.

 

1584

00:47:52,569 --> 00:47:54,605

Yeah. Every single.

 

1585

00:47:54,972 --> 00:47:56,573

And there's always a guy in the back

 

1586

00:47:57,708 --> 00:48:00,177

who's charging seven.

 

1587

00:48:00,177 --> 00:48:01,879

Yes. Yeah.

 

1588

00:48:01,879 --> 00:48:03,380

Always, always.

 

1589

00:48:03,380 --> 00:48:05,482

There's a little bit of a B.S. factor.

 

1590

00:48:05,482 --> 00:48:06,884

I'm, I'm, I'm

 

1591

00:48:06,884 --> 00:48:08,886

I will let's let's be honest.

 

1592

00:48:08,886 --> 00:48:10,854

I mean there are sometimes

 

1593

00:48:10,854 --> 00:48:11,688

or there's

 

1594

00:48:11,688 --> 00:48:13,557

regionally there's that guy

 

1595

00:48:13,557 --> 00:48:15,692

I'm making doing eight bucks a foot,

 

1596

00:48:15,692 --> 00:48:17,060

but the guy's living in Beverly

 

1597

00:48:17,060 --> 00:48:18,528

Hills versus

 

1598

00:48:18,528 --> 00:48:18,829

a guy

 

1599

00:48:18,829 --> 00:48:20,530

making four bucks a foot in Mississippi.

 

1600

00:48:20,530 --> 00:48:21,798

Might be the same thing,

 

1601

00:48:21,798 --> 00:48:22,266

you know what I mean?

 

1602

00:48:22,266 --> 00:48:24,234

So there is that to account for.

 

1603

00:48:24,234 --> 00:48:25,936

But in your area,

 

1604

00:48:25,936 --> 00:48:27,337

you know, it's all relative.

 

1605

00:48:27,337 --> 00:48:28,772

I got two more.

 

1606

00:48:28,772 --> 00:48:30,340

One is

 

1607

00:48:32,743 --> 00:48:34,578

Cincy medallions.

 

1608

00:48:34,578 --> 00:48:36,513

I thought that would be more of a thing

 

1609

00:48:36,513 --> 00:48:37,281

by now.

 

1610

00:48:37,281 --> 00:48:38,615

Men, when they first came out to see

 

1611

00:48:38,615 --> 00:48:40,083

and see the router,

 

1612

00:48:40,083 --> 00:48:40,717

the medallions

 

1613

00:48:40,717 --> 00:48:43,120

that you could buy, the all the the boy

 

1614

00:48:44,554 --> 00:48:45,555

growing up the.

 

1615

00:48:45,555 --> 00:48:47,257

Oshkosh medallion was

 

1616

00:48:48,325 --> 00:48:50,394

the greatest medallion of all time.

 

1617

00:48:50,394 --> 00:48:52,429

It came with everything. You need it?

 

1618

00:48:52,429 --> 00:48:52,863

Yeah.

 

1619

00:48:52,863 --> 00:48:53,363

The bits

 

1620

00:48:53,363 --> 00:48:54,932

inside the template and everything.

 

1621

00:48:54,932 --> 00:48:57,034

Template, the bits, everything.

 

1622

00:48:57,034 --> 00:48:58,402

I thought that was like,

 

1623

00:48:58,402 --> 00:49:00,137

wow, this is the direction in history.

 

1624

00:49:00,137 --> 00:49:01,204

There's going to be a lot of these.

 

1625

00:49:01,204 --> 00:49:03,173

It's going to be very common to do these.

 

1626

00:49:03,173 --> 00:49:04,007

And it really still

 

1627

00:49:04,007 --> 00:49:04,675

is a small,

 

1628

00:49:04,675 --> 00:49:08,078

small, small part of the industry.

 

1629

00:49:08,078 --> 00:49:08,979

So

 

1630

00:49:11,081 --> 00:49:13,283

that really died quick.

 

1631

00:49:13,283 --> 00:49:13,951

It did.

 

1632

00:49:13,951 --> 00:49:15,686

And they look

 

1633

00:49:15,686 --> 00:49:16,787

dated a little bit

 

1634

00:49:16,787 --> 00:49:18,722

when you see them flaws right now.

 

1635

00:49:18,722 --> 00:49:20,524

So and here's the thing to do.

 

1636

00:49:20,524 --> 00:49:23,727

You remember, did you have because

 

1637

00:49:23,727 --> 00:49:26,263

Tom Peter got me a set

 

1638

00:49:26,263 --> 00:49:28,732

that I used to keep in a a big tube

 

1639

00:49:29,933 --> 00:49:31,735

and they were like they were like

 

1640

00:49:31,735 --> 00:49:35,005

a vinyl version of the medallion.

 

1641

00:49:35,005 --> 00:49:36,606

So you get during an estimate.

 

1642

00:49:36,606 --> 00:49:37,841

Oh, yes,

 

1643

00:49:37,841 --> 00:49:38,342

take it out

 

1644

00:49:38,342 --> 00:49:39,843

and throw it on the floor and go, look,

 

1645

00:49:39,843 --> 00:49:41,011

I'll give you this.

 

1646

00:49:41,011 --> 00:49:42,813

Yeah, put that out on the floor.

 

1647

00:49:42,813 --> 00:49:44,681

And once I started doing that,

 

1648

00:49:44,681 --> 00:49:45,282

I thought,

 

1649

00:49:45,282 --> 00:49:46,350

I'm going to sell Medallion

 

1650

00:49:46,350 --> 00:49:47,284

with every job.

 

1651

00:49:47,284 --> 00:49:50,687

Yeah. And, and

 

1652

00:49:52,622 --> 00:49:54,324

here's the thing too, is

 

1653

00:49:54,324 --> 00:49:54,791

with, with,

 

1654

00:49:54,791 --> 00:50:00,530

with these laser cut products,

 

1655

00:50:00,530 --> 00:50:02,733

they're so perfect that

 

1656

00:50:03,967 --> 00:50:05,068

there's something to be said for

 

1657

00:50:05,068 --> 00:50:05,836

hand-cut for

 

1658

00:50:05,836 --> 00:50:08,705

even if it is not as perfect, as a,

 

1659

00:50:08,739 --> 00:50:11,441

as a perfect CMC router.

 

1660

00:50:11,441 --> 00:50:13,710

And it's like if you see a horror movie

 

1661

00:50:13,810 --> 00:50:15,212

back in the thirties

 

1662

00:50:15,212 --> 00:50:16,713

and forties or whatever it would,

 

1663

00:50:16,713 --> 00:50:17,047

you know,

 

1664

00:50:17,047 --> 00:50:17,914

it was black and white,

 

1665

00:50:17,914 --> 00:50:19,483

it was grainy, it wasn't

 

1666

00:50:19,483 --> 00:50:21,618

there was no phenomenal special effects.

 

1667

00:50:22,119 --> 00:50:24,421

But they, they just worked,

 

1668

00:50:24,421 --> 00:50:25,022

you know what I mean?

 

1669

00:50:25,022 --> 00:50:26,323

They they got in there

 

1670

00:50:26,323 --> 00:50:27,457

really, really scary

 

1671

00:50:27,457 --> 00:50:28,959

whatever versus today,

 

1672

00:50:28,959 --> 00:50:32,162

like with CGI and all the special effects

 

1673

00:50:32,162 --> 00:50:33,530

and how they can make it.

 

1674

00:50:33,530 --> 00:50:34,965

They can make anything now,

 

1675

00:50:34,965 --> 00:50:37,034

but it doesn't have the same feel.

 

1676

00:50:37,034 --> 00:50:38,402

And I think there's something

 

1677

00:50:38,402 --> 00:50:41,338

to be said about and cut for is

 

1678

00:50:41,338 --> 00:50:42,873

even if they're not as fancy

 

1679

00:50:42,873 --> 00:50:45,475

as some of their scenes cut medallions.

 

1680

00:50:45,475 --> 00:50:46,209

But anyhow,

 

1681

00:50:46,209 --> 00:50:47,044

I thought medallions

 

1682

00:50:47,044 --> 00:50:47,310

would be

 

1683

00:50:47,310 --> 00:50:49,146

a real bigger thing than they are.

 

1684

00:50:49,146 --> 00:50:51,481

And my last my last myth

 

1685

00:50:51,481 --> 00:50:52,682

that I thought is

 

1686

00:50:52,682 --> 00:50:54,251

that you have to do this alone.

 

1687

00:50:54,251 --> 00:50:56,286

You're on your own running a

 

1688

00:50:56,286 --> 00:50:57,454

and starting a business

 

1689

00:50:57,454 --> 00:50:58,221

and running a business.

 

1690

00:50:58,221 --> 00:51:00,757

And, you know, because,

 

1691

00:51:01,024 --> 00:51:02,059

you know, years ago, where

 

1692

00:51:02,059 --> 00:51:03,160

where do you get any help? You're out.

 

1693

00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:04,728

You're doing this on your own.

 

1694

00:51:04,728 --> 00:51:07,531

And I'm sure that's a myth.

 

1695

00:51:08,532 --> 00:51:09,566

There are people

 

1696

00:51:09,566 --> 00:51:10,700

that there's

 

1697

00:51:10,700 --> 00:51:12,569

mentoring programs out there.

 

1698

00:51:12,569 --> 00:51:13,537

There are people there.

 

1699

00:51:13,537 --> 00:51:14,638

There's organizations

 

1700

00:51:14,638 --> 00:51:17,040

that will help mentor small businesses.

 

1701

00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,876

I wrote down a couple of one is score

 

1702

00:51:19,876 --> 00:51:22,245

sc0re is you can Google.

 

1703

00:51:22,245 --> 00:51:24,948

There is like 300 chapters in America.

 

1704

00:51:24,948 --> 00:51:27,617

Another one is the SBA, DC

 

1705

00:51:27,617 --> 00:51:29,686

Small Business Development Centers

 

1706

00:51:29,686 --> 00:51:31,788

that you can find that get some help,

 

1707

00:51:31,788 --> 00:51:33,790

get some mentoring on,

 

1708

00:51:33,790 --> 00:51:35,092

you know, so there's

 

1709

00:51:35,092 --> 00:51:36,493

that's something that I would have

 

1710

00:51:36,493 --> 00:51:38,829

when I was a 25 year old kid, man,

 

1711

00:51:38,829 --> 00:51:39,463

I didn't

 

1712

00:51:39,463 --> 00:51:40,397

I didn't know

 

1713

00:51:40,397 --> 00:51:42,032

anybody that would really do

 

1714

00:51:42,032 --> 00:51:43,400

that, you know, other than, you know,

 

1715

00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:44,468

my father in law, whatever,

 

1716

00:51:44,468 --> 00:51:46,503

whatever little knowledge that he wasn't,

 

1717

00:51:46,503 --> 00:51:47,204

you know,

 

1718

00:51:48,638 --> 00:51:50,140

held a lot of help.

 

1719

00:51:50,173 --> 00:51:50,707

But,

 

1720

00:51:52,142 --> 00:51:52,542

you know,

 

1721

00:51:52,542 --> 00:51:54,211

if there was organizations out there

 

1722

00:51:54,211 --> 00:51:55,245

that were like that,

 

1723

00:51:55,245 --> 00:51:56,746

then I would have been

 

1724

00:51:56,746 --> 00:51:57,481

what a huge

 

1725

00:51:57,481 --> 00:51:59,583

why not take advantage of these?

 

1726

00:51:59,583 --> 00:52:00,917

Some of the most successful people

 

1727

00:52:00,917 --> 00:52:02,285

I know in this industry today,

 

1728

00:52:03,453 --> 00:52:04,254

I have

 

1729

00:52:04,254 --> 00:52:06,123

you have youth mentors

 

1730

00:52:06,123 --> 00:52:07,991

and have become mentors.

 

1731

00:52:07,991 --> 00:52:09,226

So yeah.

 

1732

00:52:09,226 --> 00:52:11,428

So just maybe keep that in mind.

 

1733

00:52:11,428 --> 00:52:18,301

Now, I don't have the time to be a mentor

 

1734

00:52:19,503 --> 00:52:20,937

to anybody.

 

1735

00:52:22,105 --> 00:52:23,640

You know, I but,

 

1736

00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,009

but in another circumstances

 

1737

00:52:26,009 --> 00:52:27,277

I would, I would

 

1738

00:52:27,277 --> 00:52:29,479

I would probably would enjoy that.

 

1739

00:52:29,479 --> 00:52:30,780

Maybe you could point somebody

 

1740

00:52:30,780 --> 00:52:31,748

in the right direction,

 

1741

00:52:31,748 --> 00:52:33,850

just like you just did.

 

1742

00:52:33,850 --> 00:52:35,285

Yeah. There you go.

 

1743

00:52:35,285 --> 00:52:37,354

There you go. Yeah, that's it.

 

1744

00:52:37,354 --> 00:52:39,289

Because I have a feeling I would say,

 

1745

00:52:39,289 --> 00:52:39,489

well,

 

1746

00:52:39,489 --> 00:52:40,824

how come you didn't do this yourself?

 

1747

00:52:40,824 --> 00:52:42,926

You let me do this for you now

 

1748

00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:44,294

or get your act together

 

1749

00:52:44,294 --> 00:52:46,530

before you come to me. There it is.

 

1750

00:52:46,530 --> 00:52:47,230

You know,

 

1751

00:52:47,230 --> 00:52:48,465

that's what people don't understand

 

1752

00:52:48,465 --> 00:52:48,832

about you.

 

1753

00:52:48,832 --> 00:52:50,066

You're a giver.

 

1754

00:52:50,066 --> 00:52:51,234

It's a s, right?

 

1755

00:52:51,234 --> 00:52:52,736

You are a giver, man.

 

1756

00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:54,571

All right.

 

1757

00:52:54,571 --> 00:52:55,639

So we'll hear some myths.

 

1758

00:52:55,639 --> 00:52:57,307

And we have you pointed out

 

1759

00:52:57,307 --> 00:52:59,075

with one time, Rob, that with this,

 

1760

00:52:59,075 --> 00:53:01,077

our generation has probably seen the

 

1761

00:53:01,077 --> 00:53:02,012

some of the most changes

 

1762

00:53:02,012 --> 00:53:03,580

in this industry.

 

1763

00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:04,381

If you look at where

 

1764

00:53:04,381 --> 00:53:05,315

we started our career

 

1765

00:53:05,315 --> 00:53:06,883

to where it is right now,

 

1766

00:53:06,883 --> 00:53:08,218

who would have thunk

 

1767

00:53:08,451 --> 00:53:10,053

all the changes that we would see?

 

1768

00:53:10,053 --> 00:53:11,388

And and so

 

1769

00:53:11,388 --> 00:53:12,923

and the other thing is

 

1770

00:53:12,923 --> 00:53:15,125

it is always evolving. This is ongoing.

 

1771

00:53:15,625 --> 00:53:16,927

And it'll be interesting

 

1772

00:53:16,927 --> 00:53:18,895

even ten years from now,

 

1773

00:53:18,895 --> 00:53:20,096

the changes in the industry

 

1774

00:53:20,096 --> 00:53:23,533

that will be out there.

 

1775

00:53:23,533 --> 00:53:24,301

All right.

 

1776

00:53:24,734 --> 00:53:26,703

You got it. So there you go.
