No charge for the sound effects

The box of framers points I am currently using has an especially thick bead of glue running down the side. I noticed this because it leaves little pieces if this glue lying around after shooting points into the frame. So . . .

While fitting a very tall and narrow piece, I put a few points in each side and flip it over to inspect, clean the glass, flip back over to finish shooting a whole bunch of points. I paper and wire the back, and then stand it up only to hear a noise that can only be described as an Australian Rain Stick .

Wow, that paper makes a fantastic noise as things are bouncing off it!

The real issue is, does this sound disturb the customer? I know I would be alarmed if I picked up my work and it clattered at me.

No, they are really cool customers and they always look forward to a good laugh about something whenever they stop in. They thought it could provide great stress relief.

Odds are, it will be back in a year or two for glass replacement - they have four kids from 11 - 17 years old who throw things when they fight. They fight a lot! And mom & step-dad don't like plexi. It's just a way of life for them.

P.S. - Mom is a well known Psychiatrist. Like I said, it's just a way of life for them.
