Similar situtation: Engineer recommends to home owner that an engineer design a few beams.  Home owner and builder have a local hardware store design the beams because the engineer was too expensive.

Now the home owner has spent 4 times what the engineer originally priced on another engineer to be told the beams are undersized plus the cost of two attorneys plus the cost of my office and the cost of the original engineer to design the proper beams.  Not to mention the cost of the construction corrections.


Best part of this was when the original engineer turned to the home owner and the builder (at a meeting with attorneys and insurance reps) and said "so how much money did you save?"    Priceless

Wash and repeat.   [bang]

tried one of the little sonic things that beeps when the dog barks? Can only be heard by dogs... supposedly discourages barking.
