I have to put up two new jobs boards.  A longer one just for custom work
(the old one is full), and a separate one for stock design cuts.  I
painted lines and titles on them yesterday.  (I also placed a new
milling machine yesterday.)  Today they will get hung up in my office.
I currently have a single jobs board with custom work on one side and
stock cuts on the other.  Its full and there are jobs not yet on the
board.  I have to admit I miss the old 4x8 jobs board I had in my office
on Ave C.  I also went with magnetic boards this time so I can just move
the marker to the next job on the board instead of having to rewrite it
periodically.  I am at 14-16 weeks prepaid custom work right now.
