No it doesn’t miss marks. The half mark is just Offset by 2 for whatever reason.

Yes. That's the point of beautiful cathedrals of any religion. It's a way to project power and inspire awe.
After all, if their god can afford such luxurious temples on earth, *surely they must be the right one with a glorious afterlife! (Not to mention that religion has always tried to gain influence and political power, and an ostentatious display of resources certainly doesn't hurt that.)

Excellent natural solution since the wood will expand with the water for a tight seal. No solution for bullets launched by idiots.

“The August 25 violation notice said that a stick from a tree was inserted into a bullet hole in the water tank and “sealed with an unknown epoxy or resin-like material” about 8.5 feet above the ground. The DEP said these are “improper materials and improper technique” as they did not meet NSF certification requirements.”
“Lawrenceville residents have continued to call into question the quality and safety of their drinking water, just as the DEP has issued violation notices for the Borough’s improper maintenance and reporting of the water system.”

Measure twice, cut once. When it doesn't fit swear to god you marked off 24 1/2 inches.

Yeah, I think we know now that Tom would've been just fine from the 20. But tough luck going against both him and Vinatieri when they were rising stars.

I’m a union laborer in Southern California and I refuse to buy Stanley global made tools or any tool for that matter that is not made in the USA. Same goes for work boots, always buy made in USA (Matterhorn). US tape is usually my go to when replacing a lost or damaged tape measure.

You’re both overthinking it there’s only 4 quarters divided into 4 quarters.

Monasteries were often built for spiritual retreat. Get away from the hassles of the real world to allow focus on meditation and prayer. And, you know, not many people are going to be casually passing that place.

Safety it's the high ground so if you're constantly dealing with wars and looters whether it's a holy war or whatever the chances of your church and artifacts being destroyed is less likely

100% guess: natural walking path that ended below a natural cave. (You can kind of see the top of the cave?) stairs are carved into the rock face up to the cave. Foundations are flattened and the cave mouth is formed for temporary living. Then you can continue to harvest blocks from the cave and start your outer walls.
Water supply might be from the cave or a river/creek nearby. Food has to come up from the stairs or possible lowered from a terrace above?
Again 100% conjecture and by no means an easy feat.
