This was a pretty quick BB to knock out. My mailbox did not have numbers on it, so this was a necessary BB to do.

It was hard to get a "during" shot, so I took a pic of me driving in the last nail for the last number

Hey PEP-folks,
This BB was completed for a neighbor, whose mobile home I installed. The numbers are up high on a front column, and his porch was not built at the time I installed them, thus the ladder and perspective in the photos.
Happy house-labeling,
Mark


[Punch list:
To show you've completed this Badge Bit, you must provide proof of the following with pictures (or a video < 2 mins long):
  - before, during, and after of installing large enough house numbers for Emergency Responders to see - Figs 1-4
  - demonstrate it meets the above stated requirements - note the Milwaukee drill for scale, these pass code for size in my jurisdiction, and were approved by the inspector.
- Non-toxic materials - Ace's numbers, possibly identical to those James Rhodes used, are non-toxic to the best of my understanding. (This would perhaps exclude certain paints? Would it be possible to clarify what a toxic house number is?)]
