Open letter to our Stooge customers
2004-11-04 by J. Larry Hendry
Finally today, I shipped the last of the Stooge panels from this round of printing. I still have a couple of pending orders for extras, and one re-print in the works, but essentially this round of panels is in the bag. So, I can move onto making this cable order happen now. I want to thank all of our customers for their support of this little side business that has sprung up out of nowhere. I am embarrassed by the length of time it took us to deliver panels this time. However, I think this is the best round ever in terms of consistency of the panel paint. I really like the new painter. And, his price is better which covers the fact I have to ship them to Washington State for painting. I appreciate everyone's patience while we worked through virtually every problem that could be had this time through. The metal shop took twice as long as quoted. The painter quit (without notice). Since we delivered to the printer many weeks late, we hit him at a bad time (other work and then vacation). The drilling time came at the worst of time for Dave and I both considering our day gigs. But, we made it, finally. :-) There is no doubt that Paul has the best customers and we are lucky enough to jump on the bandwagon. Stooge Larry (speaking for me and Stooge Moe)
