Full Version: Wokman has had enough...

Just finished the 300 woks this morning and am happy to say I still (at least I think I do) have my sanity.
The job was not near as fun as I thought it would be :-(
I haven't noticed yet if I was blinded by a stray beam......
I am now waiting for a freight company to pick them up this week and get them to their California destination. That is all to be handled by the company that ordered them for their customer.
It was quite an experience and only had about 15 that I had to re-do because of focus problems or the wok shifting during engraving.
Cermark works great and I highly recommend it to those of you that have not tried it.
Each wok took 1:36 minutes to engrave but I had to re-focus most of them due to different diameters. I removed the table so all focusing was done by shimming the piece to achieve proper focus. That was a pain, something I hadn't considered.
All in all not a bad gig....and as soon as I can get to 75 cases out of my living room I will finally be taking delivery of our new furniture.

Brian,
You took on a challenge and completed the task successfully. Great work! Maybe a new recliner would be appropriate right about now. :-)

Thank you for the adjustment David.
It's exactly the the type of post that has been making things go round and round lately.
Good Call!
