Source control, ventilation, and filtration are the keys to healthy indoor air quality. Dehumidification is important too.

Why are they on the roof without beer?
Shout out to Andy C. Namaste my friend.
http://www.hay98.com/
No beer on his jobs, or mine. When yer on 160 degree's of copper, you'd die.
We average 2 quarts gatorade before lunch ( each) 4 or 5 glasses of icetea at lunch, and at least a gallon of water by 400 pm.
All them drips and drops ya can't see on the roof are sweat, not flux..LOL.
I bet we gain and lose about five pounds during a warm day, a hot day? We go home. ( and drink the beer).

You ever try that fall arrest tool belt harness thing?

http://www.hay98.com/
As of TODAY..it is mandatory. I was ground man for a spell and had to have a hardhat on...gotta drill a few holes for vents, hottern a box turtle crossing blacktop.
The fall arrest is MORE dangerous than without..esp on copper. They are nuts. "yeah, gimme a rope to step on, on a chicken ladder, with a tag line to catch on everything not nailed down, that's safety"?
We need a revolt, or revolver..but I DID hear...it is 2 wimmen inspectors..me an Dale might get lucky, IF we can lick our own eyebrows and breathe thru our ears.
I bet they both look like Mr. MaGoo tho'...............in that case, I'll pay the fine. Spheramid Enterprises Architectural Woodworks

Great looking job, guys. Was that in Fincastle KY or VA?

I'd wondered, as Fincastle Va is just up the road from here.Building would fit in there well.Ratz, was going to suggest grabbing a bheer or two.Thought just popped into my head, though. Have you two considered getting some of the Camelback hydration systems? Might be worth looking into. IIRC, you can get them at U.S. Cavalry.Leon Jester
No fancy hydration systems..we carry up and wear THE ABSOLUTE least amount of stuff, that will eventually come back down off the roof.
it may require an additional trip down to get something from the truck, but still beats tripping over yet another thing.

The pic with DAle on the chicken ladder, shows the amount of sweat we can produce in a short time..LOL I hope it is visable.
We about have it kicked, we hadda bail out after lunch today..it was just unbearable and we had a long week as it was..
I guess it was 22 sq. or so and about 100 man hours..I am not sure anymore...I am not thinking clear due to the stupidity ..er i mean, Humidity..and sunblinded as well.

Lindo's mom was Greek, his father Latino. You know what Greek sex is? Lindo, if I remember correctly, has a master's in English. He's almost a "rainman" kind of cat - He can recite "Moby Dick" and just about any classic novel almost word for word- he's the best read man I've ever met. He just doesn't want to have any responsibility. He had a horrible childhood and he's not had a day since he's been an adult that he didn't have fun 59 mins out of every hour.

Naw, that was Jim. Couldn't understand that the crimp on downspout went with the flow, but could figure the trifecta payoff on a horse race to the penny in his head. He's the guy that was checking you all out in Perryville. I'll crack his head with a 4' level if I can get within 3 1/2 feet of him. He ripped me off and left Josh without a penny to his name a week before Christmas while he was vacationing in South America on our money.Hey Mister Sushi, you forgot to cook my fish.

seriously, nice looking job - it'll be great after its had a couple of seasons to mellow - I'd be proud to have a roof like that...

It was my bad..i didn't get the hang of it and the #'s to Greenman promptly..and then we just kinda had to run the back side so the ridge would fold.
David, I'd love a roof like that on my crib...but as the story goes, the roofer has a leaky house, and the doctor's kid the sniffles. LOL

Sphere, (and GreenCu) that roof is killer. Awesome job, you oughta be proud.
Oh, one more thing, Morphine rocks. Didn't know anyone else knew of 'em. Cure for Pain CD stays in the truck at all times. FAT BASS LINES RULE. Saw 'em live in 1998 or so, before dude died. Sick show. Too bad I was a shipwreck at the time... don't remember much, just that it was nuts.

The remander of that band (minus Sandman + a girl singer) is called Stringmen. I've heard a few cuts and they're not the same, but still interesting. You probably know, but Treat Her Right was Mark Sandman's band before Morphine. Worth seeking out.Hey Mister Sushi, you forgot to cook my fish.

Cool. I'll check it out.
I'm free now to direct a movie, sing a song, or write a book about yours truly. How I'm so interesting, I'm so great, but I'm really just a f#$K up and it's such a waste. To burn down all these walls around me, flexin' like heartbeat, we don't like to speak, don't talk to me, for about a week. I'm sorry it just hurts to explain. Something's goin on that makes my guts ache, inside. I got guilt, I got fear, I got regret, I'm just a panic stricken waste, I'm such a jerk. I was honest, I swear. Last thing I want to do, is ever cause you pain.
I'm free now, free to look out the window, free to live my story, free to sing along....
EDIT: Sorry Greencu.... the serenade was actually intended for Sphere, but if you wanna sing to me.... I'll sing back. LOL!

actually...( ahem..i was thinking again) figgure how many pennies ( that you toss away) to cover 2600 ft of roof...and triple it.
Add to that..3x the weight of 16oz Cu at three times the speed of a mexican on peyote times a half hour lunch squared..and then deduct the "ugly fat wimmen in the pool" factor..
I would surmise..it cost a buck 2 eighty an inch. Spheramid Enterprises Architectural Woodworks
