Well it’s
been a Busy week. I've made one harness for a llama cart, and two driving
halters for carting. I have one halter done and 5 more “in process” of the 65
on order. I’m Making progress, and will be increasing my speed as I go.
Llama
Hardware is now fully set up in my shop in Columbia Falls MT. There will be
some changes made I’m sure, but it’s a place to start. The new hot cutter for
cutting the webbing is So much faster it’s kind of scary.
Barb is
headed over here early next week for more training and to help me gain speed in
how I do things. As I gain experience the number of items I can do each day
will increase as well. The computer process is coming along as well. The “merchant
account” is nearly in place (first of next week, like everything else) and with
that I will be able to take payments and pay for shipping without having to
leave home. Nice that FedEx, the USPS, and UPS all pickup from the door!
Requests to
attend numerous events are pouring in, and I have to say I appreciate the
offers, but there is too little time and too much distance involved to be able
to attend all of them and be home to make the product. I will be attending the
Llama Rendezvous in Estacada OR at the end of June, but not sure what other
events I will be able to attend. I need to fill the orders I have on the books
before I can justify attending more events and taking time away from
production.
Please keep
sending me invites though, you never know when I’ll be caught up and be able to
attend. I’m also thinking about starting an event calendar on the web site or
this blog to let everyone know about the events even if I can’t attend in
person.
EVER
FORWARD!
Great idea on the events page, that should help people find you if you plan on attending it will also give those who want to look up information just for ideas on what and where to go.
