Can you do more videos like this? Also with various kinds of connection details?
Hi Gabriel, thanks for this video! I noticed you included chapters in your video description but youtube did not make them into video sections. I think their format changed slightly. Thanks again!😁

Hi Gabriel, where are you based in Australia? I am in Melbourne and would like to talk with you about prefab houses. I am representing an European manufacturer who wish to get their display product shipped and assembled in Australia for potential buyers. Are you providing commercially consulting/ advice services? Cheers Bob
