2 Groin vaults, 2 Barrel vaults and 24 Archways all installed at a local jobsite in 4 Hours!

This morning when I popped out of bed, I decided to venture over to a local jobsite to check up on some arches we delivered the day before. As I arrived with my coffee in hand, I was instantly greeted by the framer with a big smile on his face. At first I thought he was eye balling my coffee and I started to think that he thought my coffee was for him. So like any sales professional would do, I immediately offered it to him. He couldn't see my hands but my fingers were crossed and I was giving a quick shout out to God praying that he would not take my caffeine rush away. Well, He chuckled and said, "oh no! I am fine, I just need to add one more arch!" Well, with a sigh of relief I was able to keep my coffee and make an additional sale.
As we walked onto the jobsite, I quickly began to notice all 84 arches were now installed. "Wow!" I said, "How long did it take you to install all of these arches?" Well he replied, "About 4 hours! We would have finished earlier but the Meals on Wheels van pulled up and we couldn't resist taking a break!"
As I hopped in my truck to head on into work, I managed to snap some photos of the Groin Vaults, Barrel vaults and Archways he installed. See photos Below
