Part of the difficulty in replication my old skills was that I had not kept good records of conversations with the attorneys, PR's and heirs.

do granite if you can find one of the independents with the tools/connections.... half bulnose/flat in a pattern and really common color.ikea has really cheap formica (almost to the point of per/renter  expandable) but you need a quick and good handyman.formica also makes solid surface (not just foil)... not sure how it handles a hot pot and knife cutting....you can also do really large porcelain/granite tiles (18-20"+ inches) with very thin grout lines...concrete can go with a very good sealer, and somebody who knows what to do.but in the end, you want something you can replicate again and again with not a lot of headaches down the road...continuous success

Hence maybe next time if I asked a question it would be how would you scale and replicate your business...so you can duplicate your machine. 

He's got good motives and a great amount of energy and enthusiasm which I hope to someday replicate. 

I'm now focusing on larger 150+ unit buildings, hope to replicate this success on that scale!

Unfortunately, you cannot replicate this luck.  

if you did well with the first one, and looking for the same returns then you should replicate what you did. 

Then all you have to do is replicate the transactions with different numbers each time.

an infinite number of monkeys on typewriters will someday replicate one page of the King James.There are just so many independent variables, there's no database in the world that can resolve the problem - - not even Google.
