Well, I've moved most of the material, publications, molds & stock to storage. I'm still making arrangements to have the spin casters and mold maker delivered to my garage. They are HEAVY and require some special handling.

For the next 2 months my time is tied up delivering 2 big projects for my day job. These jobs are working me 80+ hrs per week so my time looking into the HPC stuff is very limited. Once these have gone live with the company, I'll have the time needed to get a business plan in place, a business license and get things rolling. A detail review of the cast stock, packaging and the price points will be critical. As Pat used to say, he worked "cheaper than Chinese Communist labor".

I am shooting for the last quarter of the year as a goal.

As an FYI, it is likely I'll change the name of the business, but I still haven't made up my mind in that regard.

And another side-note: Pat had begun stocking Minairon's wonderful line of figures. I have a nice starter stock and plan on continuing ordering from Lluis in the future. We all need to support that growing line of SCW goodness!

Hey Bryan thanks for keeping Pat's memory alive with that range. Just let us know when to order.

Good luck, Bryan! Thanks for picking up the line. I'm sorely tempted by the Minairon line.

Wow, this is great! I was making an order for Pat before his tragic passing. Now I can actually complete my armies!

Thanks,

John

Best wishes Brian, glad the line will still be around. I'll be waiting.

I would keep the name and goodwill that goes with it. Pat was a true gem and will be missed.
Best wishes in your new endeavor.
Cheers

Thanks, Guys! I'm new to the manufacturing part, but have helped Pat in the past. Right now it's all logistics for me but I'll have a handle on it soon.
