Started work on the 2 Tie-down Bars
The instructions say to "tap" one end of the bars to receive the tie-down ring. Since I've never "tapped" before, I knew I would need help. I went to a huge hardware store in town where they hire retired gentlemen who freely offer up their expertise to us not-so-young guys who don't know what the hell they're doing. I went up to an elderly gentlemen in the tool department and said "I have to get a tap thingy to fix up an aluminum bar thingy that has a pre-drilled hole in it so a bolt thingy can get screwed into it". He looked at me for a long time and then smiled. I could tell he was already mentally questioning my level of competence in this matter. He took me to the tap tool section and got what I would need and started telling me how to use it, knowing that I was probably incapable of figuring it out on my own. I luv this store!
