I feel like there’s just a lot going on, I haven’t abandoned my creations, or desire to create - things simply are not aligned currently. Of which I apologize. 😰
I am working on getting some health issues under control which is mostly the reason the shop is slacking. And my workshop is not heated so I can’t really work in the winter right now / run a heater 24/7 to keep the silicone of temp.
So! I’ll be testing the v2 mold for tentitouch tomorrow. I’ve decided to put any profits from the shop towards some gender affirming surgery down payment. And that is I can get into a wee bit of production it will help me toward this goal! Which is actually quite motivating!
@ShopDad2 I mean I have sold a bit, I do De-gas and discount for flaws/am transparent about the flaws. I guess I meant more to highlight that despite being a quiet store/owner I haven’t any qualms about standards. For me I feel like it would be easier with clearly defined standards.
Hoping to get back into production soon. Finally employed but got bills to catch up on. I haven’t abandoned my creations! I think about what I need to get back into the swing of things every day.
Hoping some work lines up soon and the funds will start rolling in so I can top up with silicone and get back into the workshop. My shop is a creative outlet for me, an escape from my desk job.
Update: 😩Still alive over here. I haven’t been unemployed since I started working. Job hunt continues. I know it should let me work more in the shop, but I don’t feel like I’m in the right head space? Also the funds for the ever rising price of silicone 😂😂😂💀
I just want to continue to apologize for the store’s lack of new products. I haven’t secured a new job yet. I am holding on to all my income bracing for not being able to find a replacement so I can’t buy more silicone.
Alright more pauses for the shop. Got a two week termination from my job today, the whole company is going tail up. No repairs for the house have been made.
