Prepping For Another Large Order

[kmmcrafts]

Not usually this busy this early in the season. Actually the whole year has been a little busier but not usually this busy until after Thanksgiving. 

Did 4 custom / personalized orders tonight and then this big order.. Got burned out on personalization so I removed the contact for custom order buttons from the website, at least until I get caught up.

At this rate we are going to see a shop full of new toys. I see a Nice 16/32 drum sander in the future with a 6" jointer, throw in a 16" bandsaw, a 12" planer floor model, custom router table, a Jet 1220vs lathe, and a few other small tools. We will help spend that extra cash for you.

Actually considering scraping the table saw purchase and maybe getting the shop finished and heat installed. Depends on how sales go for the rest of the year

Overtime for you.  Oh, you are the owner of the business?  No time and a half for you.

Keeping things warm and rust off tools is an important objective when dealing with work shops for sure. May have to put on some help. I know a person who use to sub out some cutting to other scrollers. I use to do part time work for a furniture restorer and he would call me if he had  some scroll work that needed replacing. It was a little added income back in the day. I did some fancy fret work on a mirror he was restoring and it was made of cherry and boy that was a pain to cut out without burning. As it turned out he was aging it anyway to match the other furniture so I did not have to be as picky as I did. Wish he would have told me that. 

 

Good luck with the sales. Means economy is doing well and that is always good news.

Heat and a good bandsaw will be enough. You don't  need a table saw if you have a good bandsaw unless fine furniture projects are in your future. Don't work more than 30 hours a day you do need to get a quick nap in there. Good luck on making it to the finish.

I could not function without a tablesaw. I guess it all depends on the type work you are doing. Good luck Kevin. Show us some of the stuff you are making and selling.
