I love it!
I'll admit, I reached out to some Chinese manufacturers. The pandemic meant everything was going slow. There was lots of time to brainstorm. They did offer better quotes on paper, and with customs tariffs the way they are here, it's actually cheaper to import from China than from the US. But I knew something felt off.
They couldn't answer any of my nerdy questions. @Southernhighlander could. This is our family business. Every cent invested comes from our labor. I justified the difference in the price point to the CEO, and why craft and institutional memory matter, and we went with Paul.
This is just the beginning.
