I’ll be at the shop today from about 10am until I get bored (probably around noon or 1pm), same drill as last time: if I call you to come pick up, please back up to the garage door and I will bring your gear out & leave it for you to pick up once I am back inside the shop.

heading to the shop for a few hours today:

If I call you to come pick up your gear please show up earlier than later, I cannot spend an entire day there as it (a) is depressing as hell, and (b) I’ve got gardening to do!!!

I’ll be there at 10AM and will start calling then, if I do not reach you I will assume that you know where your gear is at and trust that it will be safe in my shop for the next few months...and it will be safe there, security is in place and I do monitor the shop remotely, I am not giving up the location and will reopen as soon as it is safe to do so.

Take care and be safe.

I’m going into the shop today:

If I call you, please come at a time we agree upon.

pull up to my shop and give a beep on your horn or call if you know my cell # (all of you will have that by the end of this if you haven’t noted it already)

I will bring your piece out and sanitize any surfaces in front of you, please remain inside your vehicle, we’ll talk via phone.

Once I am through sanitizing your equipment I will retreat back to my shop and lock myself back inside, once I am inside please retrieve your gear and go home.

No money will change hands today. I am doing this to get stuff back into the hands of its owners and will readdress repairing your gear once this has passed.

Sorry it has to be this way but am taking no chances with this:

be safe and be careful.
