Just an update on the status of the business. I’ve taken a full time position with the county. I’ll remain at the Alma location for the time belng. All business will be conducted on a by appointment basis. This is to help cover the expenses of living and take some burden off of my spouse in paying the day to day and our farming ventures. Gunsmithing should have remained a part time labor of love, but I guess sometimes we need to stick our necks out in order to get them chopped off. I have all intentions to complete the projects currently at my shop IF I can. If you have a project at the shop I intend to complete it. If you have concerns with that, please feel free to contact me and we can schedule a time for you to pick up your project (complete or not). I have a deep devotion to the craft. Unfortunately, the craft can’t pay my bills. After over four years of trying to make a go of it full time I see this now! Again, I WILL continue to smith, but it will be part time. It will be done as I can make time for it. My family, bills and livelihood will not suffer for what I love to do. Please contact me via messenger or by phone. I will not respond to comments left on this post. Thank you for your understanding. Thank you for your business. Sorry for any inconvenience.
