    I'm done!!!

    I'm done, I'm done, I'm done! And with that, I've got my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering! The past 10 days have been an absolute #&%$!*@, but I'm done now!

    And with the past 10 days, I haven't been able to get to nearly any emails due to end-of-the-semester work, but to all those whom I haven't been able to get to, I will be returning to work, full time starting Saturday.

    And more good news, I've got a signed lease on my own 2 bedroom house here in Rochester, complete with workshop (i.e. 2nd bedroom) that I can work out of full time while I'm in Rochester. I'll finally be able to expand to how I've wanted to for so long now, finally being able to offer the service I've dreamed of offering!

    Again, thank you all for your kind support in helping me get through this final year

    Congratulations Brian! That's great news. And BTW, I just received my MacCat Deluxe and your workmanship is OUTSTANDING! Best wishes with your expansion. I'm thinking you'll make some hammock folks very happy.

    I have heard your confession I know who you blame

    Don't bring me your tales of temptation and loss
    Don't bring me the pieces of your shattered cross

    Expanding to a 2 bedroom house... Considering the tarps you put out & the way people like them, I'll bet a lot of folks would picture you in a small factory, staffed w/ a crew of sewers!

    Great to hear Brian!
    I too will something make and joy in it's making
