    Holy cow, Tim. I’m absolutely GRINNING from ear to ear hearing you talk about my products. It means just so much hearing those kind words from a fellow maker. Couldn’t be more appreciative, man… seriously. Can’t wait to see what the future holds, and would love to do some work with ya in the future! Thanks for the support, everyone, it really means the world!
