    Kerry, I am very impressed with your drive and determination. I think you are going to be a great sheet metal worker. I grew up in Riverside and living next door was old Charlie Schifino. He too was a sheet metal worker who got his start at Quonset Point Naval Base. He and his crew were famous for a portable building concept they developed and is known as the QUONSET HUT. Charlie was very talented with his snips and construction knowledge. He gave me a few pairs of his own snips that I want to pass onto you. I know he will be proud that you will have them in your tool box. Have Jay contact me. Mike

    Lol I’m guilty of the exact same thing! Every job I drive by that I’ve done I point it out to my wife and kids! And it only gets worse the longer you do this wonderful trade!
    Keep up the amazing job never stop learning!
