Good to hear from you, sometimes life is indeed tough. Crossing my fingers that both your back and your big lathe get bettet soon! Would have loved to help out with the shop and climbed up that ladder!

hey guys, Ash's mom died a bit ago, we have been traveling back and forth so much of late, with her parents and what's left of my family i'm exhausted. this month is trashed, but next month should have a better outlook. we will still be doing some traveling but should slow down a bunch now and flatten out for a while.
the lathe cross slide... wtf! i have 2 in house now, not to mention the 2 they screwed up so bad they wouldn't even send out. the last one is at least better, but will require some serious fitting and about 3mm taken off the dove tail to make it work. so hopefully that can be sorted asap and be back up and going again. anyway, just wanted to touch base, some jobs like engraving etc are moving through the shop, the larger projects should start coming out next month, as well as the runs of items that have been in wait.

Great to hear from you Joe, sorry to hear about the family ... it sometimes does come in bunches. However, your health is always first foremost my friend. Looking forward to some of your new work and final pics of the shop.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother in law.

Hopefully the worst is behind you.

Can’t wait to see some of the things out of the shop.

Looking forward to replace my bezel for the 6152/1 project since 2017 and I know it’ll be worth the wait.

The person who bought the watch from me is in the USA so I’ll get it out to them to test fit and enjoy.

Best wishes

I’m still hoping for that replacement one and I think we are going on 4 years now.
