HMR Slow Down
« on: May 20, 2013, 10:51:14 AM »
I have to say thanks for the business you have given me . My regular job has picked up to 10 hr. days . I can't make what I consider timely deliveries at this time . I will still be making barrels . Right now , if I'm lucky , I spend 3 or 4 hours a week on barrels that take 20 + .Those of you who have orders in , I am working on them as fast as I can . Once I clear my back log , I hope to start a 1841 42lber. in full GB scale , got a 30" bar of 5.5" bar waiting . Also , some have expressed interest in Beer Can bored 1841 & 1861 Seige Howitzers . Thank you . Ed Hart , HMR Cannons

It's good to have employment...  I hate when what I should be doing interferes with my playing...

I am looking at a lathe this week end that I can use at home . This will allow me more machine time with less driving time . Ed

Absolute worth the wait.  This just came in this week and I plan to order more cannon soon.
Pop can, golfball and one for 1" bore ball molds.  Now I need more zinc.

Your business is good because you are, Ed.  Still enjoying the 1841 GB Napoleon I got from you last year.  It got a little exercise on Memorial Day.
