I see a date and a message on the ridge beam. Do you always sign your work?

In typical MLU fashion we are going down a rabbit hole on my habit of signing my work in construction courtesy of my dear friend Terry.

Yes I do, it is a quirk I have, often placing that days news paper in at the same time or writing a small paragraph as to who I was building it for and the weather and other such details.

I have been privy to uncovering some interesting writings when renovating old buildings in the UK and have kind of kept the habit up.

I would say Colin, yes. windshield removed and a spreader bar used to connect the two cars to the lifting gear. Ive watched that before myself and did not think about the RAT. Thank you for that
