Finally got my caddy all loaded up... this thing is fantastic.
Threw out the cheap soft pine one that I got from Amazon and had to finish myself - it was nowhere near this quality.
May be another one in my future very soon

Well if I can stop moving for 2 minutes and get in on the next, next batch Cappy is working on....
Planning to see whats left once everyone gets theirs.
Have a couple others planned to go in as well.
One MVP is going to a new vaper and that VaporShark was on shore leave in the caddy
Dang... quick math already puts me at needing another caddy but they aren't on the RSM website at the moment..
Ahoy all, hope everyone had a nice weekend?
RSM update;
Although I tried to ship all the Cruisers out Saturday, when I got to the post office it was closed? So everything went out this morning instead.
I've been unable to procure more American Cherry wood from the local suppliers and I am all out here in the shop.
I will be opening up desk caddy ordering again and offering African Mahogany for a limited time until I can get Cherry again. It's a bit pricier, harder to work and I only have enough for a half dozen or so caddies before I run out but if you ever wanted one made from the darker Mahogany, now is the time.
I'm currently working on making the little electronic covers today that go in the mods. There's actually a fair amount of work that goes into making these little guys but I should finish them today and get a coat of finish on them.
I'm estimating the first of the regulated mods may be done within a week? I'll try to have a couple done by next weekend if possible.
Have a great, pirate-y week, arrrrr

Thanks for the update Cappy. Hope yours and everyone elses went as well as mine. Can't wait for this batch to come out and thanks for your hard work.
Ordered two of them since I love the mahogany !
There's absolutely no rush - go ahead and finish the mods for the others first
Thanks Cappy, hope you are feeling better and have a great week.
I can't decide......plus I don't want to spend all my budget on a stand and then not have enough for the mod...LOL
ok I decided....I just got a small one for now...one box and 2 tubes....for the nightstand..that is about the minimum I sleep with...lol. I got the African Mahogany..can't wait to see it!! It should look fantastic with the light maple/birch.
Ahoy, good morning.... stupid puppy.... collie's like to hear the sound of their own voice...zzzzz
Well, I'm up so gonna grab lots of coffee and get some less complex stuff done today instead of making electronics modules. Gonna need a clear head for that.
Have a fine damn piratey day today .. arrrrrrrr

Ahoy!
Well there goes Tuesday....
I got a little work done today, but I suddenly found myself in the house attic tracking down a water leak and making repairs. Ah well, real life sometimes rears it's ugly head I suppose. So many things to do around the house, some of them have been on hold for years!
Arrrr!

wait what? Capt you have a stupid collie???? I have TWO stupid collies..lol..and yes they DO like to talk....
Ouch. An attic. In Florida. In August.
You not kidding. I won't go up in the attic till at least December and it's still 120 degrees!

Having done a LOT of business in FL this is why I'd never move there in a million years, well that and the 900% humidity and 35C temps at 10PM !
I hear Arizona is a 'dry heat' and may be better to retire to
Too humid here too. What i'm after is a place at 80f all year!
Arizona - dry 126f - good luck!

Aye, well our adult collie died a month ago and Joanne got another one. First time we've raised a puppy in 20 years. Must say I'm not exactly loving it but he will grow quickly. Getting a full night's sleep is a hit or miss though and the entire house is on 2nd shift hours.

Fortunately it was overcast yesterday but a freon line was condensating kinda bad and dripping until it got through to the ceiling where I noticed a damn spot, hadda get fixed asap! It should dry out now though.

I'm working on electronics again today and will be for days to come, but I've gotten so many desk caddy orders in the last couple days that I'm going to have to start my weekend early to get them shipped in the beginning of next week. Nice change of pace from building mods though and it seems many people are wanting a holder done in African mahogany and are getting one before I run out of it again.
I'll check my suppliers again soon and see if they have gotten any more cherry wood in stock. It would suck pretty bad if I had to start ordering caddy wood online. The extra cost of shipping and the higher online price would mean bumping up the price of desk caddies.
Later all, arrr
