I want to buy my partner a tool kit for our home but he is very fussy when it comes to quality. He works in the construction industry so they would have to be of a proffessional quality rather than home DIY (even though they are for use in the house). I can’t ask him because he’ll guess what he’s getting for christmas hehe!

How is illegal immigration impacting your industry?

Ryan P asked:

I’m in the construction industry and get paid $ 30.00 hour as a carpenter. I’m losing work to illegal immigrants who are getting $15.00 an hr. They pay no taxes, insurance, or transportation and sometimes own no tools of their own. In the end they are making more money than me and the builder is paying less to get the work done.
Who said they are not taking jobs no one wants?

the “eggster” asked:


The recent announcements of a building frame reinforcing improvement has been met with various arguements and battles against the new frame reinforcing system, from the building design fields of the construction industry.

Do these people think that this new improvement is at war with them? It is not. The hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, fires, floods, tsunamis, etc; are at war with their designs of building frames!

As a building Designer, any new method that helps me provide a safer, more protective, easier to assemble and inspect building frame is a welcome development to the industry that I am a part of! My #1 priority is to design safe buildings for those who will construct and occupy the building system that has my signature on.
Since Closed-Nets, a total-frame, steel-bodied, flex-reinforcing continuous frame accessory product, adds shear resistances, increased frame strengths, construction and maintenence costs reductions, these become a tool for progress!
