As far as up and down and so I do get it centered on six inch centers. So, I find the center first. Eighty-eight and a half to 44 quarter. Then the width of these is inch and half, so it’s 3/4 to one side of the other. I’m going to the left side. 3/4 there turn that into an x and then level, almost when... Transfer it to the bottom. X is transfer here, you do that on each one and then you just measure over six inches. 6, 10, 18, 24, 36, 42. Turn around, and x’s on this side. Same at the bottom six. All right. Now, I just in a very fortunate manor these are 41 and 3/4 so eight inch less than 21. 20 and three quarters. 20 and three quarters but I'm going to use all these used ones because we're going to use some stuff called deck correct on this and what you can do is kind of run the screws at an angle. So straight through and it won’t stick out the other side. So I need one, two, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Nine, 15 of them there’s 2. You got another screw or two? “Here.” If it gets where it's one split on, you can run your screw into reverse. Now I didn't do what Tim does, which is cuss it in addition. “Hey, it’s afraid of me.” I split that one too. You got an extra one? “I do.” What are you bleeding about? “Me? I slipped. I can’t really see on that side.” The grain of the wood is making me. “Split?” Go at an angle six. Now I'm not going straight across I'm going down here up at an angle of up here, down at an angle so that it doesn't split it when you get real close. So you want to stay away from the end.
