For clarification, the only lettering we did on the tool, kitchen storage and kitchen cars was on the ends. (Okay, that English just doesn't sound right, but you know what I mean, right?) The sides were from , I think, last year. Since the lettering team was kind of at a loss for work (lots of rebuilding this year) we went around catching up on jobs in the yard. I think it has worked out alright though and has improved the look of the yard a bit.
