    Lets Make A List

    Lets assume you have built kitchen cabinets for a client and will deliver and install. This will be a list of everything that you should take with you to facilitate the installation. This list does not include the cabinets/drawers/doors/hinges/slides/tops/splashes. Bringing extra hinges/slides/handles/knobs, are a given. This list has to be complete right down to every single item. Since you don't want to have to make a trip back to the shop, it must be very complete.

    Here are the rules:

    1. You may only list one item at a time for each post and you can post as many times as you want.
    2. There must be a post preceding yours in order to post.
    3. If you see a need to list an item that has been listed, and can justify why you need a duplicate, state your reasoning.
    4. If a single item comes in multiple sizes, you can group them as to what they are. Or, if it's necessary to list an item of a certain size, make a comment with your reasoning.
    5. If you desire to have some comments on your item, make it above the existing list.
    6. The jobsite has power.
    7. List to include whatever you would need for either a wood finished or painted set of cabinets.

    It would be nice to keep the numbering of the items sequential, as the list should be surprising long (and interesting). You could just highlight/copy/paste the ongoing list to add your item.

    I'll start off with:

      #3. Levels - 2', 4' and 8'. Why all three? Because I really don't want to make a trip back to the shop.

              Is this new construction, or a tearout of the old, and install the new?

              Makes a huge difference on the cleaning supplies they expect you to bring.

              AKA Broom, dust pan, trash bags.

                          This installation could have been a remodel, so we can include that condition. Since you never know what you might run into, this list should represent a re-usable "installation" list, like a punch list. If you want to add an item that would be required to remove old cabinets/tops, add an (R) after the item.
