Looks like his shop is closed (for now) and his current work is on pause. I’ll do the cliff notes version.
May... was probably the last time I had a decent length chat with him. He had some projects planned. I was aware that he was in the process of moving from a rented place to building his own shop.
June.... his agreement with his landlord at the rented space ends and is refused a month to month lease ... so he has temporarily stopped working on watches and is only focusing on his new shop.
Some foundation work.





So he tells me... the framing on the 1st floor will be completed.... I say, I thought you had plans for only 1 floor....
Turns out his 1 floor has evolved to 2..... clean room on 2nd floor and machining etc on the 1st.

He then says...speaking of machines.... he just bought a new heavy duty one that can handle stainless.....he needs 16 HF volunteers to help move that.

His current goals.
Framing and sheet rock done over the next couple of weeks. Shooting for a late August to early September move in.
Edit: oh he doesn’t have access to a computer and is checking in about once a week here to answer PMs
