Well the day has come that has long been anticipated by me for many year's,I'm shutting the door's where it all began up here in Columbiaville,Mi ( which is in the thumb of michigan ) and I'm moving all operation's down to Waldron ,Mi which is 2 mile's from the Ohio border and 10 minute's from the Indiana border.With the economy being in shamble's in this state me and the family are packing it up and heading south,so now I'll be closer to our farm and me and my brother Joedirt are gonna be putting our construction equipment to work fulltime plus I bought a house with a huge shop.
The shop was used previosly to work on heavy equipment such as dozer's and hoe's and what not so it has all I need as far as power hook-up's and such.So now come's the exciting part of merging all of my trike's and trike part's into one place instead of being scattered in 3 differant place's.I'm on my 9th load with a truck and trailer thus far just in trike related item's and I'm thinking about 2 more load's and I should have everything all together in one place.The next thing after getting everything together is getting a complete inventory and having everything documented so I know what I have and how many I have. Let's just say that after collecting primarily Honda ATC part's since the late 80's I have found item's that I've had to buy in the past because I did'nt think I had them.
So first thing's first I'm going to be building an office / showroom ,an enclosed part's room and a paint powdercoat room.Also in the main section of the building I will be having a fabrication area and an assembly area .Basically I'm going to be moving into an area which is approx. 6 time's bigger than my existing shop here up north so believe me I am seeing star's cuz i'm so excited.Plan's are to have the new shop up and running by the 1st of the year if there are no major hang-up's which at this point and time I'm not expecting any.I may be losing some of my clientel from the metro Detroit,Canadian and surrounding area's but now I'll only be minute's from Ohio and Indiana and hopefully establish new clientel in those area's.
So FYI I'll keep everybody posted on my progress and I will be shure to add plenty of pic's as construction get's underway and I look forward to dealing with other fellow triker's that were just too far away to do business with before..I'd also like to say Thank you for all the business that you guy's have given me up North in Columbiaville and if you still need part's I will be more than happy to ship and or deliver part's up into the thumb area as I will be up here on business approx 1-2 time's a month still..
