The big question is: Are your beds Hurricane Proof? Hmmmmm?

Q2: What was the freight fee for that shipment, anyway? $600?

Congrats on your global sales.

Great story Phil. I don't think that there is any thing quite as rewarding, "when you do this for money", as being commissioned to do a piece that was literally sold by another customer. I love it when I get new customers from old customers that were referred by older customers. You get to concentrate more on the pleasure of working on the project rather than trying to sell your self or the work to some one that may be clueless.
