‘long about Friday of last week, I had just about had it. I had been working tons of hours trying to regain control of the production schedule and the shop suffered for it.

The back building had become completely clogged with bikes and bike boxes, the floors hadn’t been swept and making room for Mickey’s junk pushed it over the top.

I spent all day Saturday and a couple hours on Sunday making improvements as well as cleaning up. Lanie came in with me on Sunday and we were able to sweep at least 60% of the floor. I came home and worked on a design for a new seat stay mitre fixture. This one is lathe-mounted (may be I mentioned this a few days ago) and will free up one of the Bridgeport mills for doing first cut on down tubes.

The focus of today is shipping. I have to figure out how long that will take and work backwards so I can spend at least a few more hours cleaning. When I get to that point, I have to clean.
