Okay folks and update....
About 5 months ago I lost my job as part of a reduction in force and have been unemployed since then. I have looked high and low for a new job and Oklahoma has the highest umemployment in 24 years. I had a choice to make a couple of months ago and that was do I become a victim or do I become stronger and live as a survivor? I don't expect the government to bail me out and we knew we would have to make it on our own. Since I could not find a job (not even an interview). My wife and I instead chose to continue on with Hayabusa.org and invest in some new equipment. We have worked very hard over the past few months with our new laser in learning the skills that it takes to engrave and cut with it. I have been working on artwork for the site for 10 years now and we believe that we have a lot to offer back to the members here.. We have seen a great response from our local area too, friends buying from us for Christmas gifts and the response back has been incredible. We have no vision of conquering the world with engraving or signs or any of the things that we are making, we think that we can make a living in this tough time by offering custom products for people all over the country.......
We are excited to do this, I have been making money for other people, hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars over the past 15 years and it's time I use some of those skills in business for myself. This is a tough time for many people and we wanted folks to know why the sudden shift to this new site... We want to offer something to you, a good product, custom made and by the hands of someone that you know......
I want to make sure that I let all the admins and mods here know that I appreciate them.... Your continued support, calls, emails, PM's have helped us.. Your constant good wishes and your confidence has really helped... Thank you all for walking with us......
So with all of that said and done...
I have been working on getting a new site up and running so that I can start to show and sale things that we are making without spamming up the Org. I have the site far enough that I can let you guys know about it and get some answers to questions. I have been getting a lot of request for information about what we have, what we can do and what the cost are... The other site should be the place to answer all of your questions.... So let me invite you over to King Keepsakes - Highlights the first page has some examples of what we have done and what we can do. Right now most of the things that we have completed have been custom items for members here and for gifts for people here locally. There is a sales link up that has a classifieds area that you can go to and see what we have made and what we have for sell. Most everything is one off because we make it right there and I dont want any two things to really be just alike... If you have an idea of something you want or would like to see just shoot me an email or PM me and let me know.. We can literally put just about anything on wood, metal, granite or acrylic.....
We still have all of the shirt equipment and we will also be making many more shirts and hoodies in the next few weeks... New artwork, new stuff, now that we have time we will be keeping up better on sizes in stock and turning products there too... Bike-shirts.com will probably be fading away and be absorbed by kingkeepsakes.com
Thanks for checking us out...
