I'll consider myself justified if I get a big antique mirror that Mrs. Rr has been jonesin' about for a long time hung. Since I have a really hard time climbing ladders anymore, it will take me longer than the agerage glacier to get the wall marked and the hangers in place, then to get the mirror - weighs about fifty pounds - onto the hangers. Oh fun, fun, and joy.

Let's see, scaffold up to mark the wall and install the hangers, then roll the engine hoist in from the shop and get it positioned to lift the mirror......

Not a bad idea, Roger, only I sold my scaffolding, and the cherry picker won't fit the job. Got the hangers anchored to the wall above the fireplace, and the mirror sitting on the mantle; only have to lift it four inches, but am waiting on the boss to get back to make sure the wires on the mirror go onto the hooks - I hate fishing for those hooks behind pictures and mirrors blind.
