inSmall win: I finally understood how to use pivot tables in Excel
Did you also have that lightbulb moment too? I was so proud when I finally got it, after previously thinking they were some kind of dark magic. I guess we all start somewhere!

inAm I the only one who has family help clean before gluing?
Three floors ago, I just swept quick before gluing down vinyl planks. They held fine for two years now, no peeling or anything. I get that dust can make the bond weak, but how much are we talking about. If the glue is made to stick through some dirt, maybe we're doing too much. My buddy who does floors for a living says he only vacuums for big jobs, not every time. Seems like one of those things people stress over but doesn't always matter.

inAfter weeks of confusion, reading steel erection drawings clicked for me.
Hey @brookep80, did Joe explain how bolt patterns change with wheel adapters? Like if you use spacers to fit different rims, it can throw off the whole pattern and cause stress cracks. I've seen that mess up hub bearings over time because the load isn't even anymore. Getting that right from the start keeps your suspension from wearing out fast.
