Title: All Leather work and Holster orders
Post by: Spring Dragon on July 06, 2013, 12:17:37 PM
Well, I have some very terrible news on holster orders.  As of right now, ALL HOLSTER ORDERS have been canceled/halted.  I have tried and tried to keep my personal life private, out of business and off the forums but can no longer do that.  

I have been going through some extremely difficult times with my family life for the past 2 years and it has finally come to heads. Seems the hits have just kept coming. Sadly, and with a broken heart, my wife and I are divorcing.  Times have been extremely difficult for me to say the least.   For many private reasons and sensitive matters I can not and will not discuss or share anymore than that.  Just understand I am no longer able to do leather work or fill orders.  Due to circumstances some of my tools have to be sold off.  My wife was largely involved with and helped with the leather work and performed many of the skills in making those items.  Hopefully one day, who knows when, I will be able to get back to leather work but for now it is done.  I don't like it, I am not happy about it and I am terribly embarrassed but I can not change any of it.  I am extremely sorry this has all happened and that I have failed my customers.  Please forgive me and understand this is why I have struggled to fulfill leather orders and the wait has been long.  Please do not hold this against me and/or my character.  I will however still being carving and offering other items and services as best I can given my situation.  Sincerely---Jason

Sorry to hear this Jason, not an easy thing to go through I know. The important thing is to take care of you now, the rest will sort itself out in due time. As for your customers, they will understand or they won't..I know it is difficult to balance it all out, or to even know what to say, when you are going through so much uncertainty and change. My thoughts and prayers are with you bud...

I also have "been there and done that" and the advice given so far is strong.  It will get better.  In my own case, it turned out for the best by far. Just take it day by day and stay positive. Focus on a bright, bright future.  ;)
