We’ll folks. It’s been a heckava day. This morning we closed on our new building at the new location. We will still be here in Amarillo but at a much better location. The new building will be much more efficient and much nicer. I’m am very excited over this and it will enable us to provide faster, more efficient, and better service. The remodel starts Monday. I will keep everyone posted on progress and post pictures once we get things rolling.
Probably the most exciting news out of everything recently is that I hired apprentice. Kelly is very dedicated and a very hard worker she will no doubt prove to be a huge asset for years to come

Hope to see it in person some day. Congrats!
 
Congratulations. The need to expand proves your doing things right!
 
Congrats brother!
 
How does the TV song go??? “ Well.....we’re moving on up......to a delux.........”
You get my drift....Congrats man!
 
Congratulations Erik!
 
Great! So my granddaughter’s and my ram trifecta will get mounted in your new TOT facility!
I don’t believe I ever thanked you for letting me shoot your graduation toy! Fun stuff and thanks! Of course now I want one;)!
 
Gonna be an awesome facility & studio for TOT!!!
 
Can you get a giraffe through those doors?(n)
 
Oh ya that’s only a small piece. I could mount a full body giraffe in this shop with no issues and get it out the door. That’s just a taste
 
New building and apprentice. Price increase!

If I could again find the right person, that be awesome. Jim was with me 6 yrs. till he got sick and passed away. Tried a few others who had been to taxidermy school and/or had their own business, they did not last long.
One high school student had a class where they go out and work for someone, this kid would of become a employee and trained to take over the day to day business but, he went off to college and became a agronomist.

Sooo, that leaves just me. Really not interested in hiring again UNLESS, the right person comes along.

Enjoy your new building.

Good help is really hard to find. Kelly has been helping me since I bought it and helped the previous owner for several years. She loves it and is going to be really good one day.
I’m not planning on any price increases unless materials go up.
 
best of luck Erik,who knows,even i might have something done some day going in and out those doors.

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
