my grandson was helping me from a safe distance take down and buck a cherry tree . i got it done and waved him over . he looked it over and said " wow papa you made that tree small really fast " . i never thought of it that way but i guess that sums it up .

A kids perspective...
I got hired on a six story residential assisted living project as a trim carpenter. Of course half of the lazy H foot print was in the dry, but still working on the rest of it with a tower crane as it was basically concrete floors and concrete interior dividing walls between the units supporting the next floor. Metal stud exterior.
I worked there a week, and on the weekend drove the family by the site to show them where I was now working..
Our youngest son, maybe six at the time, said, "How did you build it so fast?"
