NEW ORDER HOLD, Effective 5/7–6/14
Existing order wait time 4-5 weeks from order date. Some variances will occur.
Thanks to everyone who made this little business possible. I wouldn’t be here without all of you. For the next while, I will stay locked on existing orders and get them built ASAP. You will still be able to order during the dates mentioned above, but there will be a Production hold on new orders until that time passes. After 6/14, we will be switching to the setup mentioned below.
We’re restructuring to better serve in a timely manner, by shifting over to an inventory setup.
This will allow you to place an order and have it shipped out quickly as opposed to waiting for every item to be a custom build. If it isn’t in stock, you will be able to email me to get that product onto the priority list for production. I will still do “Custom Shop” builds and departmental orders, but those will be handled on a separate timeline from the inventory system. I will still be building all of the gear, except for a small percentage of things built by my contract helper. You will still get the same quality as before.
When I started, building per-order made sense, and was feasible. As the rate of orders increased over the last few years, it is no longer something I can keep up with, as seen with the current wait times. For survivability, this change is necessary to best serve those who put their trust in the gear. I’ll keep working and adapting to keep things running smoothly and bringing new equipment to the table. Stay tuned for more announcements as we go. Feel free to give me a shout if you have any questions. Thank you for your support.
Forge Ahead.
