Taking the Plunge

Well.... after a lot of "soul searching" which can be loosely translated in to "growing a pair".... I have come one step closer to working Full Time doing what I want to do.... building humidors.

I have been working a full time job as a Manager for a transportation company and I have spent about 11 hours a day working at this position....

Today - I sent out a request to put myself on a 1/2 day schedule on the premise of saving the company some "overhead"... not sure if it will fly or if they'll just tell me no.... No is not an option for me.... as I want and need more time in the shop to take care of job #1 - building humidors.

We'll see what happens.... Either way - I plan on getting a solid 8 hours a day in the shop.....

The way things have been going - thanks to ya'all... Waxing Moon Wood can survive and grow! I have recently partnered with a very talented cabinet maker - Jay Buchholz, and will soon be designing and offering custom cabinet humidors.

Thank you all for the continued support and wish us luck!

    So, does this mean that due to more production, lower prices?????? LOL!!!! Seriously, though, that's awesome. I wish you all the luck in the world. There is no greater thing in life than "living the dream".
