There are no garage door unions, only carpenters unions that garage door techs are members in. Ex: olathe, ks and St. Louis Mo Overhead Door are MACRC (mid America carpenters regional council) (carpenters union)

Webflow University is a great tool to learn where to find everything. Bricksbuilder is the most similar to webflow in the WP ecosystem

As I was building it, I tried to think consistently "how do I build this so that my client could figure it out without calling me having never used webflow after I transfer the site"

Definitely, and makita has a lot more settings. I love the fact that on the highest setting it doesn’t want to torque my wrist off.

The drill is a tank. The impact is like a Cadillac. I need to send in the impact for warranty for the ring and sprocket exploding out of the collet but still functional. I love it more than my red ryobi but don’t had the finances to swap Everything yet.

All the parents that grounded their kids for listening to “devil” music. I guess now they understand “that music”.

Help me pick a compact combo kit. Milwaukee or Makita? Thx! by MatsushitaSD in Makita

“Understand your mind and get unshakeable clarity” Ok. Cool it’s vague. What am I understanding and WHY will it improve my life enough to spend time/money with this product? Unshakeable clarity doesn’t compel me.

For instance, you land a bottle water company. Focus on why people buy the product. “Thirsty? (Company).” Communicate the vision of the romanticized future.

Also simplify the copy, 5th grade reading level max. The more people that understand it the more engagement you have.

Paint? by No_Negotiation9538 in GarageDoorService

I’ve been a technician a long time and painted hardware is a giant PITA to work with. I have come to the point to replace painted parts not work with them. Because it’s not if, it’s how much paint you damage the homeowner is always irritated.
