We installed 12 foot barn doors on this house I just built- not sure why?

Homeowner- people are hell bent on having barn doors.
Doors are laminated mixed species core with a 1/2" veneer.

Yup, barn doors are the current "cool" thing. Neighbor has them, but doesn't have any cows?

Good lord, isn’t that the truth. I’ve got to build 5 of them, PLUS 19 hemlock doors for the farmhouse project I’m working on.
Shop time.... = bong time....?

Yes,the barn doors are all the rage,trouble is they are not legal egress over here.
Done got busted twice now.
I tell homeowners ,you can put them in ,after the CEO and I are gone.
Edit:Good Luck Brandon, I went back to school and I am still there, I find it pretty hard to walk away and I am hardly into any of it ,anymore. Yet I continue .

All that effort and money to hide a 12"x 14" receiver and cable box. That thing could house a small brothel in Guatemala.

Jim..I don't think Contractor was poking fun at his clients but he went too far about the virgin Mary...

If getting paid to build something you client wants, leads to you laughing at them while posting pictures of their private home, why bother ?
Money you make off of knuckleheads with more money than cents (pun intended) still buys you bolts, biners, buds, and beer.
Why not fleece the stupid and wealthy?
Your time is valuable, and yours to do with what you choose.
Moral equivalence of taking money from chubby shufflers that don’t understand the concept of the house odds at a casino.
Somebody has to pay for my custom alloy rims on my sweet new #Vanlife sprinter, and it ain’t gonna be me. Brah.

Hey Majid_S thats pretty cool building a computer. When I was a teen a friends brother was a computer engineering student (1989?) and had to build one. He inspired me to take some computer science but ended up just playing "Oregon Trail" on a floppy for the semester.
Anyway.
Cheers!!!! S...

Hey Jim , I have built 14 homes for HFH,it is a great organization.
Most for veterans.
And , I and my crew were paid for our time on most of them.
You are aware of a handsome tax break for your work.
F, I hear you, man.

Fortunately, my clients have thicker skin than you.
On that note- Jimmy Carter is a hero of mine but he wears his tool belt backwards and frames with a 16 oz finish hammer.

^^^^ Finish hammer? We only frame with rigging axes! At least when I used to frame. Now get back to work!

Reilly may be onto something.
I checked (first page that popped) and the quote for wood chips including tax and delivery was $416 for 3 yards

This P-51 Reno warbird racer is finally complete. Engine needs several runs to fully break in but should be able to put a little more nitro to it in a few weeks. I hope to race it at our July 1st race at our club.
