lol. I sell mostly rigging supplies. We sell slings, and chain, and synthetic slings (I can sew!), and shackles, and electric hoists, and winches and etc.

Basically anything involving labor saving and building. I also have literally made any effort to make a sale (frequently if a customer insists they can't find something, I will google it > find a price and availability > mark it up 30% > pocket the money). So yeah if you put a buyer in contact with me, i'll distribute whatever you're selling XD


if you're actually interested, we're the regions largest distributor for these guys:

http://www.thecrosbygroup.com/

I also sell miles of this stuff all day:

All good, we wish we didn't *** up so we can pocket all this instead of evening out XD Guess we should just be happy we break even when we *** up.

One project tho just finished up I should be raking in the profit there. If they pay my 30k change order for trim they added. If not I swear I will go down there and rip it off the wall for all the *** and many times I had to revisit the change order.

Architect: But we deleted trim
Skull: NO you didn't here you changed it from Handrail to lean rail and at walls with nothing you added Handrail you just deleted, plus more. PAY UP! >:O NAOW!

Overestimating from subs makes me nervous, but you never hear about it until crisis mode has gone into effect.

LOL You are! And it's always a work in progress. But I do build in extra pricing to cover a slip up or two.

Well yah but this ain't no normal beast. Rehab of old building built in 50s and doing the rehab while occupied with tenants. And we bid it like 5 times, with drawing changes and them always bringing down the scope of work cause what they wanted was too much for them. -_-

Another project, which much be a *** on the GCs, has like 800+ RFIs. Thats the one I mentioned before with the 83k Change Order.

I have a habit of blaming GCs over anyone. I'm not sure why. I know there's no room for contingencies. The competitiveness amongst the GCs for their bids always leaves room for numbers to be skewed on their end of the estimate when it comes to estimating cost among their subs.

Competition among subs for GCs.

Competition among GCs for the projects themselves.

I only have one horror story for each that are outrageous, but I think I've dumped both on here before.

/sigh

We all need a trip to the Bahamas!

I don't nickel and dime them first, but once they start getting petty, so do we. And yes I own up to my mistakes and we live with them, but we make up for them too.

That 83k change order comes from the design of a engineered wood beam thru bolted to steel and countersunk into wood, then trimed around with paint grade trim, all with material that has to be special ordered cuz of the hippies and their "save the trees" crap. Its worth $1,300 a unit. I wanted more but its also 64 of these locations...so we cut a small price due to quantity.

I make up other things on smaller change orders, a couple extra hundred bucks on 1-2k change orders. I'm fair =P

But if you mean that rehab project, no. *** them. They fail to understand that occupied units cost more down time for everyone.

I'd love to hear it! All I got is harping against Owners and Architects. >_>;

Ohhh ohh that rehab project, rejected 3 times my caulking for the kitchen counter tops, that meets the requirements of doing that, rejected because they spec well over and beyond requirements, for exterior applications of caulk, used at interior!!!! So much rage there...I kept my mouth shut and tongue bit when I met that architect...but I could feel the blood vessel in my head...

Yup still occupied units. And so its also a retirement home....so...can't really get ornery when they do too....just kinda take it.

I did meet/go into unit of a navy vet that had the hat of USS Hornet. Made my day. Along with the lady that has a Redskins shrine n her husband was at first game they played at in Washington.
