it's been rough going man... but things are looking up and I refuse to fall into the hole of depression any more.
2 fabricators left the shop in June and I had to take up the slack. It wasn't bad when they left as things were very slow and we were preparing to close in August for summer break, but July was bananas. Orders for beekeeping equipment came in from Norway, Japan, New Zealand, USA and a whole bunch from Crete. I managed to get it all done by the 9th of august and we closed, but instead of taking a vacation, I stayed back and kept going with things to prep for the Beekeeping expo in December and the new season starting in September. All the while working on barrels, the cylinders, pins, and fixing my new place (cracks in the walls, paint etc.) Fun times...
Anyone know of any decent fabricators (MIG/TIG welding, lathe & mill operation) that are looking for work and MIGHT be in Greece??? No joke, I need help here and the locals are no help.
