He's actuality silly thinking that I'm interested in copying anything that he's doing.

I was just trying to help out by encouraging full disclosure.

I won't make the same mistake again.

You actually wanted to copy his trade, most likely to replicate it with your baba Lati grin

The guy is not silly, at least not as silly an outdated as one who mixes baba Lati and outdated American designs undecided

Bros, do not fall for any cheap cajole. The good thing about your business is that it is an artistic trade and requires some talent and years of commitment to master.
Keep your competitive advantage to yourself, do not feel pressured to disclose it.

Your response was in order.

A month or so ago, on this same thread I had asked to know how people use their money to finance clients project without being hurt. The answer I got was “I don’t not have to explain anything to you “ with an attitude. That is the precedent most have set here ( minus Oga Next) . It has come back to hunt them.

Regarding the door you made which they are still using to spite you, let me know if it’s rejected. I will pay full amount to have them without questions.

Na man you be! wink

Yes! For those who want something better than slap and fix grin

As a matter of fact, they produce made-to-measure cabinet and wardrobe doors.
So you cannot actually build your custom kitchen like you do abroad.

________
They don’t do norms at Aframero.
You configure your furnitures to your taste and budget.

If I can’t find one in Ibadan I’ll order a “Lazy Susan” from them. Truly good stuff there.

Do we really want to build a healthy and profitable culture on this forum?

We need to address the following as a mature mind:

1. Address the gaps we notice;
2. Encourage all stakeholders to address gaps with each other;
3. Create a culture of openness and accountability.

I as a person will respect people more when they talk to me rather than talk about me.

Creating a culture of “We” against “Them” is both dated and destructive.

If we continue this way, it won’t be long before we create fear in those who have genuine interest in knowing why we do what we do.
Then the fear leads to risk aversion which eventually kill innovation.

The end result - we keep doing routine because we fear if we ask “We” might be intimidated by the “Them”

Just a general observation.
How many people on this thread show their work and how to solve certain issues or how they fix certain issues.
Only few

They only come here to rant about the price of cement and iron rod

Check out Aframero in Ikeja, Lagos for custom boards and furniture accessories. This is for those who want class and taste.

I’ve been using them since 2011. I stumble on their thread here sometimes in 2016 https://www.nairaland.com/3309799/modern-home-kitchen-wardrope-accessories

You can reach them online or visit their Ikeja office.

For the kind of work done on the project, the little work done in the last 3 months is too small for me to be updating on that thread. You’ll hardly notice any major difference.

We just need to cover the roof and tidy up all the paraphernalia to wrap up the stage of work.

Expect final updates on the thread in the coming days.

Is there anything that hasn’t been solved on YouTube?

#WeMoveee

Youtube is not even a credible source. There is virtually no credible knowledge one cannot find on scholarly-peer reviewed data bases if you know where to look. Even metalwork , metallurgy, fabrication and material technology.

Now, some would talk to you but they would talk to you in a subtle, uncivil manner and even make additional attempt to put you and your work down, without any prior provocations. Those are behaviors and culture that continues to persist here. For example, of what need was it to bring back the issue of the contentious doors or post link to a similar metalwork thread? If that is not a subtle aggression, then what is?

The first thing when treating a sore that is in the eyes is to keep pepper faraway. Attitude, disrespect, bulling and insinuations are all unhealthy behaviors. No matter how subtle, they are uncivil and the outcome on the affected individual is emotional distress.

This is a thread where we all come to learn, share experiences and gain one or two things. You may not know it but this thread has inspired many to invest in the future. People have avoided costly construction mistakes because of strategies they found here. These are all possible because of collective inputs from numerous contributors to the thread. The only way to guide this treasured thread is call out any incivility.

Subtly aggressive behavior is worst than an open confrontation and needs to be addressed. If a culture of respect is desired, then openness and healthy discuss must be encouraged. It would be pretentious to act like we don't know when people engage in incivility. Proactive measures must be implemented to intervene. The ways to prevent such occurrence are to create awareness, call them for what they are, and speak out.

The offenders enjoy the game and would continue if not reprimanded, especially if the target is seen as a soft target. They would perpetuate their demeaning act and end it with some silly subtle phrase like "I come in peace" when the reverse is quite obvious.

It doesn’t have to be this way sha. We can handle this by retraining our mind to approach social situations and conflicts in a more positive way.

Walahi Talahi I was honestly trying to avoid issues for the guy. No deception in mind at all. I’ll never ever use local metal door ever on my builds sound proof billet proof or otherwise. Ever. I have a current build and I did not use local door. So where exactly am I going to use this sound proof door? grin

A simple “thanks for trying to assist but my methods are proprietary and cannot be disclosed”. End of story cheesy

Anyways I’m done with this. If I had bad intentions then may god judge me.

So why all of a sudden you remembered to advertise and direct people through a link to another guy who makes the same local metal doors that you so detest, of which have lastest 7 years for your brother. After 7 years, today you decided to thank him and showed appreciation for a job well done.

It is called subtle aggression. Vey uncivil.

Like I said before, lets keep pepper faraway, now that we are treating a sore that is in the eye.

You don’t have to explain anything . I also come in peace!

considering the fact that you have done POP, I think that will be risky. The carpenters have to be extra careful not to crack it. Also the purlins spacing will have to be adjusted to 14 inches
