No blocking ? Are you kidding ? <| sep |> We need to stop chopping woods and start catching balls <| sep |> Are you going to join 2 pieces of plywood together length wise ? You can use dowels to align and use Kreg screws to hold together . You can drill into the end . 13 ply will be more stable than 7 ply and look better under a clear coat so you can see the plys . <| sep |> Aw man . I relate . It took me 3 frigging years to get promoted and it was a halfassed promotion . They called it a management position but the actual title is , Seafood Lead , which is stupid because I do everything a department head does . I order seafood products , delegate commands throughout the department , manage inventory and I fill in for the department head when he ' s out . I make a measly $ 10 . 10 for all that and if those beneath me fuck up it ' s on me . Not them . I feel you though , people always ask if I need help , I know sometimes they mean it , others it ' s because of my stature . I did have someone question my intelligence at work , a customer said I had no idea what I was talking about only for a manager to say the same thing .
