The time has come

[WarnerConstCo.]

To take the next step.  I have leased a building and will be setting up a new shop.

I am going to stop doing remodels, site work and probably installs as well.

I will be focusing on my architectural millwork and machinery sales, the two big money makers. 

Best part, its just around the corner from my current shop and house.

Excellent news, Darcy! I hope that means you'll have more time with the family as well. Congrats on the next step.  [thumbs up]

Good for you Darcy, sell what the customers want at a fair price (or better) [wink]

Good luck Darcy...  Look forward to the next adventure in classic machinery you bring back!

Cheers. Bryan.

Good luck with the new shop!  Remember we like shop tours  [big grin]

 

[WarnerConstCo.]

Probably take me a month at least to set it up. 

Not looking forward to that part. 

Building has a very large spray booth as well.

I was picking up some Metabo gear yesterday and taking a further look at some of their specialist metalworking gear .. made me think of you and your machine refurbs at the time ...

Last weekend I decided to strip the flaking paint and tidy up the rust on a solid old but reliable 8" bench grinder ... (how hard could it be?) ... it gave me even greater respect for what you do with the big iron!

Good luck to you - hope we see the new setup coming together with some pics please [smile]

Does this mean more and bigger machines? [wink]

Hey Darcy, this Felder Profit H200 will definitely help the through-put in your new shop...

I want to set up a moulder and a SLR.  My large lathe needs to get set up first, i have some large scale turnings to do.

 

[Holzhacker]

Congratulations! That's an awesome move.
Took me way too long to stop being a contractor. Glad when I finally did it and don't regret it one bit. Makes life so much easier.
Your family will likely get sick of seeing you around so much.  [big grin]
Good luck with the new shop.

I am pretty sure his kids will find an interest in what he is doing.  That can be a big plus, not only for Darcy, but his kids as well.  I heartily approve.

Good luck with your new shop, there is someone selling an ancient Festo power feeder nearby for €200, made me instantly think of you. I somehow want to buy it even though i don't need it lol.

They already do spend a lot of time in my shop with me and going to auctions.

I get them ready for school and pick them up from their after school activities.

It was one of the reasons for starting a shop in my 1400 sqft garage. 

I am out of room an out of patience for on site remodeling work. 

Time for a change.
