Hey there BigDawg, ever consider a trade? Let me know if you are interested, I could use your talents making my web banner look more attractive and you could probably use a Chopper KeyTM.
(hey everyone could use a Chopper KeyTM right?
)
Hey sounds like a deal to me. Give me an idea of what you're looking for and I'll hook ya up. I'll check your site for examples of your keys.
Be blessed.
I was hoping you'd say that.
Feel free to visit my site but to my shame, I have few keys that are themed to Religion. Not to push you, but you are an obvious man of God and I think your key should reflect that. The bad news is I have an 8 week backlog on custom designs which is a good thing for me, but means I cannot take on another custom sculpture until I clear my slate some. Especially with my 4th child due in May sometime. This will give me a chance to come up with what I am looking for in a banner, and you a chance to come up with a one of a kind BigDAWG key.
Thanks for your kind words NE. Ironically, when I started this biz, I was just a local locksmith who specialized in Motorcycles. I would rush off all hours of the day and nite opening cars for folks and dragging my Suzuki Sidekick (Don't laugh makes a wicked lock truck!! and of course, it's a 'zuki!!) through the woods so I could go make a new ignition key for some poor hunter that managed to lose all his ATV keys in the Alabama woods.
I started making custom key heads on the keys for my local customers, and eventually they and my Mad scientist Uncle talked me into putting up a web site. I even put some up on eBay once in a while, just to see if I am capturing the pulse of my audience.
Now I have permanently closed my regular locksmith business (Simply no time) and focus on Chopper Keys. I still open my shop on weekends for my locals but during the week I'm all up to my shoulders in clay and plastic. The real kicker for me, is that even before I ever knew about Hayabusa Org., 'Busa Drivers were hands down my biggest customers. Harley (yup that's right!) take a second to you speed demons. oh, and don't get me started on Ninja drivers...just not enough hours in the day for that rant!
The only drawback to working with me is that I am not cheap (I am reasonable tho so don't run away just yet), oh and I DON'T TALK ON THE PHONE!! hate them.. not one in my shop, my studio and I dang sure don't carry one on me. Must have been those years I spent at Apple as a Customer Relations Supervisor...
Thanks again sorry I got so wordy there...sheesh might think I was startin' to feel at home or somethin'!
Back to work...for all of us I'm sure (clears throat).
