| - One of my favorite locations, just because it is close to my house (~ 2 miles away)
Prior this to opening, the closest one for this side of town, was Rainbow and Charleston.. Kind of far.... but couldn't complain much because it was still avail.
In comparison to the two, this one is pretty much the same except it doesn't have a rental section. Rental's are for tools, trucks, etc for those who dont want to buy the tool and just temporarily use for a project.
But anyway, this location has served its purpose countless times.
A few years ago, (im not that old, late teens/early 20s), i had came up with a project. The project involved building a desk, from scratch. I had drawn out a design, with measurements on how big i want it, thickness, drawer designs, etc.
The employees of this location, at the time, was super helpful (one was even surprised someone of my age, or anyone in that matter, would have such a detailed designed drawn own on paper). Building a desk of course requires wood, and was decided upon a maple plywood (nice light color, peachy in a way, and widely stainable). Also at that time, they had charged for cutting wood in store after a few cuts, but they were so nice and wanting to help, they didn't charge me. Even after cutting a few sheets of 4' x 8' plywood to size. At this period of time, i had visited the store a lot, so a lot of employees actually knew me after a while. Always nice to have employees remember you :P (on good occasions of course... LOL)
As time passed, employees change and what not. Service is still great. Nice, close location for those sudden project ideas (recently had one last weekend and built a pair of bookshelf speaker stands) or on emergency replacement part needs :P
*Side Note* if you need some manual labor help, there's always a few mexican guys sitting around the entrances from flamingo and from ft apache... XD never used them but i've heard they charged $10/hr per person.
