Anybody wanna help me hang some doors?
I've already painted them.
And the trim.
Picked up hinges today.
Tomorrow the old doors come down and the new ones go up.

Wish my father-in-law was still alive.
Self taught carpenter.
Worked at it all his life and made a good living.
Raised 6 kids.

Eventually he specialized in hanging doors.
It's an art.
He bid on government buildings, mostly.
Post offices, courthouses, army barracks, city halls.
He and two of his sons would go in and hang all the doors.
Pop, I wish you could come by in the morning.
:-(
