Good Lord man. You could have just cheered for the (shudder) Giants. Now you are in (almost cant type such loathsome, wretched words) Steeler Country. Pity. But I do hope the job works out well for you! :-)

Looks pretty good to me... What do you think according to this?

Btw, you're only about 45 minutes from me towards the west from where I'm at... PM me when you get there. Joe Kane may know which shop you'll be working at since he also knows the area from working nearby last year or the year before... Anywho, keep in touch Joe. :) Finally, there's a nuke on the Ohio river nearby called The Beaver Valley Nuclear Electrical Generating Station not too far from Fallston FWIW.

Respectfully,
Henry

Hi Joe!

Thanks for those kind words... I found this article covering staggered trusses and in it, Littell Steel is mentioned on starting on page 71 (4 of 6) in the .pdf article...

JP , Brady's Run Grille in Fallston is a REAL small town, right across street is another bar (sports bar) next to you is a veterinary hospital, dance studio, boat repair/storage yard, closest fab. shop is Littel Steel about 1/4 mile down road across bridge on right. They specialize in making HUGE TRUSSES as in many airport / stadium designs that are now popular. Fallston is in about as safe an area you can get ( IT AIN'T NYC)  My shops about 5 miles away in Monaca, need anything let me know!!!!! Pittsburgh: Home of the MOST SUPER BOWL winnin' team dem' STILERS !!!!!!
