I’ve said it before, but gotta say it again, just LOVE the team that’s working with me these days. It’s like a sports team, it’s all about chemistry. The three core members of the team just click and I hear laughter all day long in the shop. That’s a wonderful thing. We work [...]

Another two day update. The MBA crew continued with the siding and the roof on the building. We’re very closed to have a closed in building. AUGUST 23 You can see the back of the building is completely sided, the scaffolding in the foreground is for the workers to get up to put the roof [...]

Today was a very big step forward in the construction of our new facility. For the first time, we’re building up, rather than tearing down! It all started before dawn with a big concrete pump truck and ended with the delivery of our building! 5:30AM Metal Building Associates have already poured almost half of the [...]
The action has been fast and furious the past week or so as we get ready for a VERY big day tomorrow! If the weather holds up, the Slab will be poured and the building arrives! But first, some of the work that’s been going on at the job site. Here’s a [...]
