He knows humor.
That’s gold right there.
My favorite part of carpet jobs was the stairs. I loved doing upholstered steps.
Waterfall upholstered or Hollywood style?
We would have made a good team. You do sts, I’ll do flat work.
I feel the same way. There’s a lot of detail and it’s all right there in front of you. Nothing is hidden behind a couch or somewhere out of sight so you have to be on your A game. I think that’s why I love building out trailers. Theres a lot of detail in a relatively small space.
I was self taught. Went from bottom up. All the old guys went from top down and carpet was always loose.
That was over the top irreverently funny, if that makes any senseRicky is so good.
…, I hope they left reverence at the door, so they could enjoy his craziness. 
It would have come out better if they had laughed along with him.That was over the top irreverently funny, if that makes any sense
.....they didn't seem to see the humor. Hollywood eats their own I think. I mean, where did Ricky go after this?
It was hilarious. He's a funny guy no matter the venue.
I. was taught to go from the top down, let me tell you they weren't by no means loose. We even turned both sides under on solid steps.
I fixed many a loose stair-tooled step through the years. Kicked-on was much tighter.
Technique my man, technique. It's all in the wrist.
Top down of done wright is a shoulders, chest, hand and wrist workout.
I've never used a kicker. When going top down, I start center out to the left, then center to the right and with 80% of my body weight bearing down on the carpet tool, I was only hooking about 3 or 4 pins per each downward motion. Tight doesn't begin to describe it. When walking down a set of stairs your foot applies downward force, so that's the rational I had in my head, continuing the method o was taught. It's crappy technique that causes restretches on stairs.
.....and boy have we all seen a lot of that over the years....or decades.
In Daris's case, centuries.
