Welcome to the official April Wilkerson RUclips channel. I’m April and I’m the creator of Wilker Do’s. I'm not professional or have any training, so I just pick the project I want to tackle and figure it out step by step. On this channel you will find a variety of content like DIY home improvement, How-To’s, construction and more.

Why does the tuffwall have to be installed vertically instead of horizontally?
@@singingwindrider9881 I would guess it would likely be so that anything for more even air movement and so that if water gets in there that it can fall out. If they are vertical then water could just sit on the edge and the temperature can vary more especially in a greenhouse because the top will be generally have hotter air than bellow. This means at the end of the day it could cool down unevenly.
Curious as to your materials total cost ?
Cost to build????
You have to buy her plan to find out I guess
I love that April makes everything look so easy. The size of her shop is mind blowing. I love it. Thank you April for giving women everywhere the confidence to get out there and do it.
Thanks! If I can do it, anyone can. Thanks for watching.
Go back to her earliest videos then binge watch. Many of us have been following her for a long time. She really has put in the time and effort to make it look so easy.
You give men more confidence too!
I think there’s a bit of a tendency for women RUclipsrs to feel freer admitting they’re not experts on all things (nobody is), whereas men have more of a tendency to use jargon and other cues to try to signal expertise. It might not be just because men are show offs…I have some theories about it and think it might be related to if a field is traditionally male or female dominated, but I just think it’s interesting.
Certainly to be clear the main differentiators for success are communication skills, technical content knowledge, hard work/organization, charisma, and a bit of luck, (not the sex of the person). Plus a bunch of stuff I never thought of because I don’t have a YT channel.
@@mehill00 My boyfriend and I love to watch April together to get ideas for our fixer upper. He said something similar after the first few videos we watched, about how he likes how she very clearly explains what she's doing and why, and approaches things in a way that doesn't make the viewer feel dumb or overwhelmed with information. She's such a wonderful teacher!
If you get a 12V solar panel you can pick up fans for it really cheap as PC case fans. Connect a couple to the panel and when the sun comes up the fans can help circulate the air in the greenhouse. Done that here and it really helps avoid hot areas forming, especially near the top given it's built directly on the soil. The fans may only last a year or two but are really cheap but the panel will last for ages and can inside or outside the greenhouse itself. I'd always recommend getting a waterproof one whichever you choose.
+1 on adding ventilation, those vents won't do much on hot humid day. There won't be any air movement unless one adds a fan inside to at least circulate the air or add inline fan to create negative pressure inside.
I also wired in a bimetal temperature switch so they only switched on during warmer days (more required here in the uk).
@@tom314 A bimetal temperature switch is an excelent idea. I hadn't thought of that before. Do you have any recomendations, like for what temperature switch to get? I have very similar growing conditions compared to the uk.
@@stijn2472 I think I used a 25C one which meant it ran in the summer sun but not in the winter.
@@tom314 Thank you for your reply! 25C makes sense.
Did you directly solder it into the 12V line from the solal pannel to the fans?
And is there any 25C switch you recommend in particular? I tried looking them up after reading your comment, but the ones I found were 50 euros and didn't really seem like something easy to connect to.
It's a neat little greenhouse but be aware of algae growth inside the panels. I changed out the glass on mine for comparable twinwall polycarbonate maybe ten years ago and definitely extended the growing season by so doing. But I learned the hard way that the top edges of the twinwall need to be sealed to prevent water intrusion. Aluminum HVAC tape does this nicely. Similarly a permeable tape needs to be added to the bottom to keep dirt out and let any condensation escape or algae will begin to grow up inside the panels and there's no way to clean it out.
I hadn't thought of that. Thank you for letting me know.
I am currently considering building a small greenhouse myself that will fit our garden. I was thinking of using secondhand greenhouse glass due to its price. But I was unaware that polycarbonate extends one growing season compared to glass.
Now I think of it, do you think 2 layers of glass with 1cm gap in between would work as well? And do you have any further advice that you could share?
Thank you in advance. All help is greatly appreciated.
A few of the YTubers have mentioned metallic masking tape or duct metal tape for that purpose to keep water and moisture from getting into the cells. Tape all around each panel before installing onto the frames.
This comment saved me and I'm sure many others alot of hassle! Thank you for sharing your hard learned lesson with us so we didn't have to learn the hard way. 🙌
@@HensOnly Yes, aluminum duct tape does the job and is usually available at a local hardware store. Be aware that there is an expensive "heat resistant" type made for chimney vents and that works fine, but there's a cheaper grade that is intended for heating ducts and that's far more economical and proves to be quite durable for our greenhouses. Don't waste your time with the common plastic coated duck (used to be made from cotton "duck" cloth) tape. It will fall off.
Standard width is ? 1-1/2" ? or so. Cut your strips and then slice them lengthwise so it's not as visible...it's sort of ugly, so thin strips looks better and save you some money too. The stuff I bought was printed with logos and branding but you can wipe that off with denatured alcohol.
I just don't have the patience to make RUclips videos (I posted a few, they suck), but I am almost tempted to try it again for my new greenhouse. Wish I could find a local kid that wanted to learn the video stuff...
@@midwesternhooftrimmer6735 Glad you found it helpful. I built my first greenhouse when I was 13! That was the spring of 1975!
Another tip. If you install temperature sensing vent lifts, remove the cylinders from the greenhouse when your growing season ends. If you leave them out through a winter of freeze/thaw cycles they die in 2-3 years. But if you store them away for the winter, they last indefinitely. Took a few winters for me to figure it out.
Also, in the fall I begin filling all the empty milk jugs each week with water and build up a wall of them on the north wall to create a thermal mass. In my climate (colorado mountains) this stretches out my tomatoes another 2-3 weeks. Usually I can keep tomatoes going until Thanksgiving and leaf lettuce a few weeks past that. I stretched everthing through the whole winter once with a little electric "milk house" heater the electricity was prohibitive compared to my local produce market prices.
That’s a great tip to use a kerf cut under the sill to create a dip edge. Thanks April! 😃👍👏
I have been collecting vintage windows so that I can build myself a greenhouse. I finally have enough windows but have been trying to find a tutorial for the floor that was easy to follow and understand. Thank you for this! You made the entire thing simple and easy to follow and now I feel like I can finally get started on mine!
Jist be careful to seal those vintage windows if they are the old wood lead windows.dont want lead dust eaking into your air for she shed or garden foods.
Thanks for the reminder! A bunch of them were in good enough shape that I could just paint over the old finishes on the others I am sanding, scraping, replacing old caulk etc. I am being sure to use Protective equipment during the process.@@tinacarter8785
Found a bunch of discarded windows dumped off the tracks. Took all the panes but only 4 of the frames were worth keeping. Built a little lean-to hut for the SAD times.
❤ FYI ...screws don't have the shear strength nails do. In rough framing construction never use screws, especially if you live within tornado zones or frequent strong storms. I've seen so called framing screws snap under stress, break off at the heads and yet people use them for floor decking, roof sheeting (really crazy) and yes framing. Nice little green house.
Thanks! Good to know!
I always assumed a screw will hold wood together better. Never considered it will brea off more easily.
@@mkeyx82 You have a search engine with online access, research, don't just take my word, question everything these days but be careful of news sources. Alternative news can be as misleading as truthful. If they have a long track record of truth and accuracy they will inform what the mainstream won't due to govt control and you can thank republican traitors Bush / Chenney for the Patriot Act.
Good call. I've broken tons of screws. Never a nail though, they just bend.
@@anthony2558 Screws are more brittle contrary to common thinking that concern is stronger than wood , due to is brittle ness you can punch through a dimensional equivalent of a 2x4 easier than real wood even if the rain was o run opposite than normal.
I don't understand half of the words she's saying but I do love watching the greenhouse coming together. Very satisfying to see it become a full building.
We built the chicken run at our old farm based on your chicken run. But we didn't have a gabled roof. We need a new chicken house and run here and I may be looking at your stuff again for inspiration. You do a great job explaining. And it doesn't hurt to learn from a super positive, beautiful teacher too. Keeps my focus good.
Well done April, I’ve been enjoying your videos for years and you are truly inspirational for anyone who may feel intimidated by taking on projects. Based on your videos , I’ve built several different projects . Greenhouse is next. Thanks so much for your detailed information and go get’em attitude. Stay healthy.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
I’m proud to see a woman teaching me. I’ve been looking for simple and easy to learn from, you NAILED it literally 😂
Great! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
I've recently become a fan of marine grade vinyl sheets. They work well to turn a porch into a seasonal greenhouse but the price probably winds up being similar to poly panels. Good job on a nice build.
My wife wants a green house, I may have to build one of these for her. Thanks for sharing.
Great! Enjoy the build and thanks for watching.
It probably isn't an issue in Texas, but up north during extended freezing weather it is very important to allow the panels to drain on the bottom. Condensation will build up inside and freeze which breaks out the sides of the panel. Polycarbonate get very brittle in cold temps which also contribute to the problem. Using something like a strip of J-channel would probably be adequate. I would probably make it so the opening was toward the inside where it would stay thawed and also prevent insects from crawling up the tubes
I was wondering about that flooring design when it comes to actually growing/watering plants as a working greenhouse. How will it drain?
Was looking for chicken coop ideas. Totally modding this for that. Great video.
She is awesome. A very good teacher!
Very nice! I'd love to have a small greenhouse like this and I love the cedar you used to make it pop! I have concerns about it only having the two vents on one end; however, to have more for a cross breeze is just my personal preference. Thanks for sharing this and all the other terrific projects you've made! You're the best, April! Take care!
That's a LOT of reinforcement. I love it. I might need to give something like this a go.
Good morning, April! I had watched the previous video about this greenhouse, but I really enjoyed this one. It's not often I smile after watching a video. You have a knack for making work enjoyable and I love how you leave your mistakes (breaking the drill bit) and laughing about it, in the video. Thanks for another great video! Have an awesome week. God bless.
Thank you! You too!
I loved the honesty of the broken drill bit when toenailing. That hit close to home for me!
Glad you liked it!
Where the heck has your channel been all my life!? Holy cow! I'm so happy that the algorithm fed me this video when I searched for greenhouse ideas.
I must admit that I am in love with your workshop. I don't have an indoor area to work in for any projects and very limited space to store my tools so my projects tend to be pretty small.
Add me to the 1.55M subscribers. You've earned it in spades!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
I think it would be interesting to have a followup in a couple months about how plants grow in it and if it was worth the time and cost.
That 110 degree heat last summer is why I moved to my property in Colorado. Very nice build! I learned a lot! Thank you!!
I’ve been watching you for a while now. You’ve come a long way. Congratulations to all your hard work.
Thank you so much! And thanks for staying along for the ride. :)
I'm glad you left the broken drill bit in. It happens and often to all of us 🎉
Gotta love April and her great projects 👍
Aw thanks! I'm glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
My toxic trait is seeing this video and falling in love with the idea of building a greenhouse, but I'm too poor to even afford the screws🥲
I used free IBC totes stacked on top of each other. That's all you need. A box of screws, a jig saw and maybe a couple free pallets for some bracing and shelves.
Same
@@TgWags69what are IBC totes?
Thanks that was very interesting, I’d been contemplating building one similar but routing out all the corner posts for sliding in the polycarbonate, your way is much easier. - love the ingenuity of how you pulled it out the shop too 👍
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it useful. Thanks for watching.
I have to say one of my favorite parts of your videos is your product reviews because while im working at Home Depot im just browsing for things I really don’t need yet. But your videos help me get a better idea of the products we are selling.
Thanks! Glad you like them! I've always told what I used and why. Not all of my Viewers are at the same skill level and some need more explanation of things used. Others like to just complain I'm an infomercial but everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'm glad you enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
Okay, that water drip edge groove is a great tip.
Really enjoyed this video. 😊 I was curious about snow load tolerance, and humbly suggest rainwater gutter and catchment system. I think you may be surprised how hot it gets in there and may want much more venting(roof panels on hinges?), cross ventilation options, AND a safe electrical option for grow lights and heat mats. I’ll be expecting some cool April Wilkerson gardening podcasts soon. 👍
April, right when I was thinking you were immortal you broke that drill bit! I may have a green house in my near future. I've learned from purchasing your workbench plans that your plans are priceless and certainly worth what you are asking for them. I enjoyed your video as well. Thanks for Sharing!
You're welcome! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
This is awesome. Thanks April. Great idea for a good garden shed.
Glad it was helpful!
You are going to want to add more roof vents. There are simple automatic vent openers. I would suggest at least two and suggest four because it is going to cook.
Looks nice and simple to build. A few learning lessons, when nailing or screwing fasteners, keep the other hand away from joints where the boards come together to avoid a pinch. And keep the steadying hand at least a hand or two away from the length of a fastener. A nail can take a nasty turn inside the wood for a variety of reasons and come out one of the sides. Also for that exterior grade siding some folks wrap the bottom edge with a waterproof membrane, so that rain hitting the ground and splashing from below doesn't compromise the end grain. For your application folks could wrap with black all down the outside and get the effect the black paint added. For our boatyard vibe we'd lap it. Cheers! Clark and Skipper
Awe!! Just in time! I’m actually rebuilding from bottom up a shed that was on the side of my house. It was rotten - from the neighbors sprinkler hitting it - so I demolished it. Kept the good wood. Then, when I move I will be better equips to make my green house/she shed! Thanks April!
Great! I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
What an adventure April!!! Thanks for sharing this simple, yet beautiful green house build. I really like the western red cedar! Looks great. See you on the next build!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing April! So informative in all the details and tips you give👍
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Funny how people assume that you have to have clear walls for a greenhouse. I build all my greenhouses with solid walls that are painted white. The roof is the only place where light comes in. That's all the plants need. I grow grapes, tomatoes, and tropical fruit in a greenhouse with solid walls in Seattle. Imagine that!
Depends heavily on where you live and how many hours of overhead light you have in the winter months. Further north you go the more necessary it becomes
What lat?
And this declaration benefits this video how???
@@DoctorMandibleThe poster is in the north west United States. Not sure exact latitude. I would guess up around 45 or more.
@@TadTheTinker
My "declaration" benefits viewers of this video by noting that one does not have to spend money on expensive transparent walls. I'm sorry that it upsets you.
that was how I built my chicken coops, inside my living room:) All measurements assured to fit the door when finished.
nice power washer segway - chefs kiss!
Love your channel! Watching with my 80 yo mom. That was an easy built and it will be very doable for me. So funny because I just built and moved onto 20 acres. My next projects are outside and they entail building a coop and greenhouse. You've got them both covered!
That is awesome! Enjoy the build! Thanks for watching.
Thank You!! It’s been fun and educational to watch your DIY Videos!! I enjoy to see the time and effort you put into your beautiful projects!!
Thank you so much!
Always use tape on the top and bottom of the panel cells, otherwise they will get water in them and then mold.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! I've been wanting to make a greenhouse for my house plants with my dad later this year. I wanted to do something like the greenhouse you made in this video. Made by hand, no kits, but I had a difficult time finding a simple video on how to do it. Your video is what I'm looking for and it's very easy for me to follow along to. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
YES!!! I have a small yard and have specific and small areas with an easement!! where I would like to place a shed and a greenhouse eventually, but commercially available kits sometimes are a little too big for me. This video is a great guide!
Sounds great! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Kept it real with the bit break!
Thanks for using our TuffBlocks for the foundation! Greenhouse looks amazing.
I love them! So glad I used them. Happy New Year!
That groove under the board for a drip edge, genius! Thanks beautiful xoxoxo
Next episode: I MOVE MY GREENHOUSE CLOSER TO THE POWER OUTLET. 😛
Because I think having a greenhouse is amazing, but you'll need a little more then those vents if you're going to put in for example Tomato plants, they need active airflow or will just go bad quick. So putting in some powered fans, and some ventilation shafts on the opposite side of them, will benefit your plants greatly.
I love the build, could one make this into a lean-to on a wall as well? How would you do that?
I love getting ideas for my own stuff by watching your highly informative videos, April! I've been considering my own shed build and how to increase headroom in a small shed by modifying the traditional truss design. I realize you were able to have yours so open, using those double gussets at the joints, due to the lightweight roofing (and probably also the steep pitch), where a traditional (and heavier!) deck and shingle roof would need the greater support of traditional trusses with bottom chords and web members. But it did get me to thinking about alternative truss designs. Wheels are turning, thanks to your video! :)
you will need a fan for use in the summer.
I love that you broke your drill bit. 'Cuz that's how it goes in my world often.
"You could just bandsaw this". Lady, you're overestimating my equipment by a mile. But I guess I can jigsaw it.
Can’t wait to see what you fill it with!
WoW! I love the greenhouse presentation and how easy it looks build. Love it!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Not as bad as I thought to make. I need to save some cash for one next yr.
Nice work!
Awesome project, April! Love to see how happy building stuff makes you!
Thanks so much! Yes, I love it when a build looks as amazing as I imagined. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson And don't forget all the giggles and laughs, when using powertools and doing other fun stuff 😄
Really great presentation. Of course, I'd be doing it outside, likely where it's not level (lol). And it's funny that you are putting a greenhouse up, when it's 110 degrees. The greenhouse, will be an oven.
Awesome DIY video! I have to remember it. Greetings MrHandwerk from Germany
Great job April, sure enjoyed watching this build. Turned out great, thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Glad you enjoyed it. Appreciate your solid support. Thanks for always watching.
now that is how you do a plug! smoothest transition ive seen..... didnt even look at the fast forward button
For me I wouldn’t want a flooring but to use the ground itself for planting. Makes more sense to me.
I think that would make a great chicken coop as well. I have enough scraps to do most of it. Maybe build some skids and put on the botton so i can move it with my tractor. This is a great design loved it. Thank you for sharing.👍♥️
Thank you very informative. Also nice to see a poodle rather than a doodle
Glad you found it useful. Actually he is an Australian Water Dog but has a poodle haircut because it's cooler in this Texas heat. Thanks for watching.
** ahaha April.. Been watching you for sooo long.. That is the first time I ever seen anything go wrong. =D broken drill bit..cracking up over here, you're so funny about it... no, we're not firing you, not a chance lol =D .. A joy to watch you build these projects. It is not as scary as I would think once seeing how you do it.. thanks for sharing your skils and how to's.
I would also glue those gussets with construction adhesive.
Another idea for ventilation would be to have another door on the back with screen doors inside, just a thought April. This is an awesome build. 👌 ❤
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing and for watching.
Way to go girl. Im proud of you. I need to learn to be more handier with power tools.😊
Thank you! You can do anything you set your mind to. Thanks for watching.
You are a genius.Thanks for all of the great ideas
Glad you like them!
Great insights and technique!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
Such a FUN and Useful project April. I hope you show how you build benches inside your greenhouse too.
This is such a huge help! Thank you for doing this build!
Awesome! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Great video, well explained and concise. I have not seen a video that promotes so many products so well, it was nice to see the brand name and model numbers, etc
Thank you! Many of my Viewers are Beginners and need more guidance on what's best to use and why. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for sharing the drill bit issue!! Love it.
You are so welcome!
@AprilWilkerson I absolutely love your I can do it alone videos! I primarily work alone too. I can't wait for hubby or my sons. Last summer I got my hands on free pressure treated wood that was used for less than a year before they removed it! I turned it into a lean-to style deck for an outbuilding. Using the 2x6's for the base that ended up making a 5'x6' deck got really heavy. I needed to get it up on 4x4 patio blocks alone. I used 2x4 blocks cut perfectly square screwed in the corners of the deck and the walls to ensure everything was squared and reinforced.
I had made it close to the area it was intended but it still needed to be moved 3-4 feet over, forward and up. I grabbed 2 ratchet straps (they make great clamps btw) and a 2x4 scrap. I looped the straps under the 2x6 frame and over the ends of the 2x4. Squatting with my feet braced shoulder width apart over the frame (feet between the boards), I placed the 2x4 across the back of my shoulders and power-lifted the front half into place with a shuffling step and wiggles. I reduced the ground friction on the back half by sliding skinny rails under it. I called myself an oxen because of the wood across my shoulders. I prefer your workhorse line better! Before I walked it into place I carefully balanced the frame on the bathroom scale (that was a feat in itself...lol). That sucker weighed 200+ lbs! I was thrilled with myself! I'm a 50 year old walking cripple woman...it's absolutely amazing how with the right fulcrum and leverage system what people can do! Of course I paid for it for 3 days but I couldn't stop grinning every time I looked at it...
Love your design
Thank! I'm glad you enjoy my Channel. That is wonderful you figured out a way to do your project alone. You can do anything you set your mind to! Thank you for Sharing your Story and for watching.
And in the summer you can use it as a solar kiln.
Excellent Job!! nice greenhouse. Plus, That is a sweet workshop!!
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching.
I suspect you will need way more ventilation than you have. I’m in zone 3b in Michigan and my hoophouse is covered in plastic. It’s way too hot (for me, not tomatoes & peppers) on any day over 85 degrees. Maybe the polycarbonate is enough to make a big difference but then again, you’re in Texas
Looks great April! Thanks for sharing your build. I'm in the process of designing/building a lean-to style greenhouse to go up against a north backyard fence. I have the building know-how but was more interested in how you machined and installed the polycarbonate. Perhaps you could share a follow-up video on how it's worked for you so far?
No plans for a follow up video on that but have had no issues whatsoever so far. It's held up great! Thanks for watching.
Excellent video and i really love what i heard about the Polycarbonate. Amazing, she made made me watch the whole video. It is a bit rocket science for some of us though. I missed the part on how big this structure is, like the width and lenght thing.
Too cool, I was just talking about building a greenhouse in my old shed space. Thanks for the motivation. ❤😊
Awesome! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for posting, very helpful video!
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching.
This is a wonderful video, I also live in TX and the heat this year was just unbareable. Love the design of your greenhouse, now I HAVE to make one for my peppers :)
Thanks so much! Yes, it's easy to have a list of projects you want to do. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching.
I really like this design and build project! You carefully explained the details and made this a build that I think that I could try in the not too distant future.
Well done, April!
Awesome, thank you! I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
i like how u record yr mistakes , 👍 makes it real
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Love from Egypt April ❤
The portacool is the most american thing I've seen in a while.
In Germany we say: Mach das Fenster zu, wir heizen nicht für draußen. Translates to something like: Close the windwos we don't want to heat the outside (with our radiator).
Murica: It's too hot outside, so lets cool the air because its easier than w0rking/sitting inside.
New subscriber. This is glorious! I love it.
Thanks and welcome. Thanks for watching.
Spider drill bits are the best!
do you really need the cedar trim in front of the twin wall polycarbonate? I am in the process of making one but this step is confusing to me, especially since its expensive cedar going over it. Also, below the polycarbonate wall, would it make sense to put aluminum flashing instead of the cedar again to prevent water from sitting on the wood?
Plan to do this, so clearly explained!, but wpuld be interested in how you will add additional venting options....i plan to use for seedlings, plants, etc. And have it sitting in full sun, More venting will be needed to reduce mold and control temperature.... Maybe attic fans at both ends at the vents' space,2 to suck in air/2 to exhaust air, being able to turn on one, two, three, or four at a time? I see at the end you mention potentially needing more venting. .
Beautiful! Looking good April🤙🏾💯❤
This is so awesome!! If you could make a kit where I could purchase and just screw it together!! I could have a great green house but with your help in building it without you having to be here to build it.
Thank you April, i'm gonna turn it into a shower shack for my offgrid place 😊
Great idea! Thanks for Sharing and for watching.
You’re amazing girl! U will definitely need more ventilation probably on all 4 sides, especially in hot Texas!
It's really for when weather is cold. But if needed, they can certainly be added. Thanks for watching.
Main advice would be cheap solar panel hooked up to a fan and a water barrel with a solar timed pump.
Great video!👍
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
You definitely make it look easy! I may tackle this in the fall. Thanks for sharing!
Great! Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
Excellent job! You have talent.
Thank you very much!
