Davinici: be careful going backwards, dont trip on your SHOE mouldings
Nice Museum you have in town :} Pikes Rock was pretty COOL (groaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan yeah that was a stretch )
My daughter lived in Loveland for a few years :yes:
ARI I think we r on the same page.
Jay: So is it safe to think that at the speed you can do all this trim that 1 1/2 to 2 mins per door to hang and trim is a fair time?
Never mind :wink:
Why write it if "never mind"? a bit passive aggressive eh?, you sound like ari, who after saying again he doesn't believe me about something (which he didn't read quite correctly, as I stated above), but then at the end says "this conversation has run its course)....can't have it both ways, throw out a challenge/call someone out and say "that's enough of this". :no:
If you guys want some more explanation, I've got the time.
As far as doors (on these same houses), there were normally 21-22 doors, including 3-4 sets of double doors. Standard 6-8 masonite doors, pre-cased, etc.
Normally on the first day starting at 7:00 a.m., while my guy was setting up the cut station and measuring the upstairs for trim, I'd move the doors to all their locations (with help for the double doors).
Grab the shims (I used the plastic ones, stored in a cut open gallon jug with handle still attached for easy access, also the plastic ons snap off quicker/cleaner than wood ones), toolbelt, plenty of nails, cordless dewalt or paslode, pry bar and go to town.
Doors were shimmed all the way around and closing evenly at stop, all the way around. No bounce at hinges, etc.
I would have all the doors installed by lunch (usually some time between 12-12:30).
So....is this again, yet another impossible feat by
SuperCarpenter? Or just someone who likes to hustle while working and always is looking for the most efficient way to do things?
Not that you two seem inclined to listen to real-world experiences, but you can find me here:

As far as production trim techniques, if you haven't read Gary Katz's numerous books, website, dvd's it would do you good.
If either of you would like to call me, feel free. Maybe I can give you some other resources.
