I think that's the plan with the LA operations that you're going to be heading up Don't think that the idea isn't appealing as hell. Sadly, I know nothing of running a business. I think I could actually be excited to get up to work again. |

I think I could actually be excited to get up to work again. There is a good book called "10 days MBA". I was in IT and it helped me to transition. If you are really serious about it, I can send my copy to you. |

For people who are interested in Marketing, Seth Godin updates his blog everyday and he may open up your mind to think differently. I also have three of his audio books if someone likes what you read on this blog. sethgodin.typepad.com/ |

He's the story on the Looms guy. I have collected 14 X-3 Vintage Draper Looms. I have them in the Carolinas right now. They are being tuned up for chambray & Denim production. We should have them up and running in the next few months. If all goes will I should be up to 20+ looms buy the middle of next year. We are working with pima cotton at this time to make an amazing denim. It seemed like a logical move considering it's a bit of a challenge to get American Selvedge Chambray.

This is freakin' awesome.. fully integrated business model (except the growing cotton part). Any plans to do another kickstarter to complete your asset purchases? I'm totally in if you decide to do another KS. Also.. if you can get your hands on some of that elusive kakishibu thread and make selvage denim out of that it'll be totally legendary. |
