I know Dave was in the midst of moving, tried emailing him a couple of times about my order I placed a while back. Even tried calling him but voicemail is not setup. Is he OK?

They have had quite a few challenges with their new house.

 

This was Dave's FB post on May 16:

 

If there is one negative to our move, it is the loss of a lot of space! The old house was much bigger, and everything had a place.
It has been a constant state of chaos here trying to figure out where to put all of our stuff.  To top it off, we still have two storage units in Marietta with more furniture and boxes!
Our dining room table is set up on the front porch!
Might be time for a yard sale, build a shed or have a bonfire.....
Anyway, work on the new office and production area begins today. Working as quickly as possible to get back on track.

Dave ran into some unexpected issues with the new house but is getting it sorted out and taken care of as fast as he can. I cant say how long it will be before he is sending out orders, but he will get it taken care of as soon as he can.

Working as quickly as I can to get things back to normal. As I mentioned on the Facebook page, we ran into several issues with the new house (new to us anyway) that needed to be addressed. Kitchen needed to be completely replaced, as well as the back deck. Water damage from faulty flashing and other electrical stuff. One of the biggest issues we faced is the fact the new house is much, much smaller than the old house. Everything related to FLD and the hobby in general is still packed away and I've been having to dig through boxes to find items to fill orders. None of the 3D printers are set up as of this post, and I am still unable to produce new items or restock. Working every day building a new work shop.

 

While we absolutely love our house, the neighborhood and small town (population in Marietta is 62K and here in Temple it's only 5K)!, we really didn't realize just how much space we were losing or how it would affect everything. Didn't anticipate the work required either. Our dining room table is still on the front porch and a lot of our furniture is in a storage unit back in Marietta! 😆

 

Tanya and I very much appreciate everyone's patience and I do hope to be completely back to normal in a couple weeks.

 

**** If there is something you need or want, at this time I would ask that you order from Spruebrothers, Squadron, Hannants, the 48ers or Lucky Model.
