...please wave as you pass me by.

I had hoped to get to 1M, but I just sold my business :D so my production is going to take a rapid, and probably permanent, drop :cry: .

I'll still be here, but with only 3 machines now, so everyone have fun passing me by... 8)

Now that you've sold your business, doesn't that mean you can buy a bunch of dedicated folding boxes? :wink:

All the best wishes for the future.

0.8M is an enormous contribution, and as long as it is still ticking that magic 1M should come 1 day.

Did You tell them about borgs? :D You don't have to worry about me for a while, but keep an eye on your rear view mirror.

Rusty -- WRT dedicated folders -- actually, my wife has already "dedicated" a good portion. I don't get much to play with... (and, as much as I hate to say it, I'm not going to buy a machine just to fold -- they have to have another use. As I retire machines I'll leave them on to fold until they die, but setting up a farm isn't really in the cards).

Dukla/peteamer -- thanks for the good wishes, actually, my next employment is with them. While they are an engineering firm as well, they don't really have much expertise in my field -- they kinda bought my firm to get me -- I get to run a new branch of their operation 8) Since I have another 20yrs to go before retirement, this move is for the long haul.

unreg -- actually, I had a very long discussion with their VP-IT and CEO and almost had them convinced to give FAH a try -- do you think their 400+ machines would have given SPCR a little "boost" :roll: But, they have decided against at this time. I may bring the issue up again in the future, but it will probably be awhile -- as the "new guy" in the room, I don't want to rock the boat too much...
