Always happy to shout RnR out! Looking forward to the new trailer! I am always going to have a better day when I show up at a jobsite prepared. Like you have pointed out, consumables are a big part of being prepared!
It's amazing how quickly not having a $5 item can take a job from profitable to not profitable when you don't have it on hand. But buying up front requires investment. It can easily get out of hand either way! -Dusty
Clovis! How are you doing? Thanks for commenting. You reminded me that I actually made a shim cutting jig that works really well with two-by falloff. It cuts amazing 7in tapered shims. I want to make a jig that cuts 12in shims too. Now that you reminded me, I am thinking of just how much fall off I have gotten rid of the past few months and the fact I could have made a barrel of shims for the investment of time.
@sdsconstruction I need to get on making a few things myself. Soon I want to build out 3 - 2' x 4' Paul style tables. 2 basic dog hole field, and 1 setup for router madness. Plan is to keep 1 in the van as a daily driver, and the other 2 on stand by for when I need to form like voltron... I have the plywood, but need a day to cut everything out... Eventually we'll all have a jig for everything I hope...
That sounds like a real useful set of projects! I recently rewatched ShooshineJonnie's Paulk trailer tour and he buiilt what he called a "paulk minimalist" bench. I thought it was a great idea and have plans on building one of my own when I do Ron's new bench builds this fall (if the stars align). I will keep tabs on your channel to see if you post the builds!
Noticed you’re storing an open bag of the 5 minute mud even though you have sealed it how long before condensation gets in and starts hardening specifically in the non climate controlled trailer? Reason I asked I left a bag of quickrete in the shed even though I sealed it in a plastic bag within 2 weeks it harden up. You’re definitely the champ of organization 👍👍
Thanks for commenting Pit! The bag in the video has been open in the trailer (taped up better than in this video) for a couple months without issue. A couple weeks ago I used it and the old tape isn't holding now but the product is still powder. No idea how long before it's an issue with my humidity. You mention quickcrete. I have had the same experience with it and mortar.
Nice to see others prioritize inventory! Way to go Spence, this is how it’s done people! Again thanks for the shout out man!

Thanks for commenting DBA! You have that soooo right.
Found myself cutting my own shims the other day like a real schlep. I need to make a little list myself for the next time im at the store...
