Dan has always been around the trades. Before we were married 37 years ago Dan's dad was an avid DIY'er. He remodeled many a home and rental units, exposing his son to the processes of construction.
Dan started working as a roofer for a friend when we were first married. I remember hearing about pitches and valleys, the pros and cons of cedar shingles versus asphalt. The paycheck wasn't the greatest, but we got by.
Fast forward a few years and Dan was working for another friend who was a contractor. If I remember correctly, he learned framing at that point. There were many jobs-new construction, remodels, additions...mostly residential but a few commercial.
One day Dan was working on installing some metal joist hangars. He joked around with his co-worker that there should be a better way of doing this. An idea was born!
