SecondMoonshot and GSEA Photography

Image
Some beautiful works out of Hawaii by a new photographer partner, GSEA (https://www.gsea.online/). The photos are printed on vinyl (you can play the opposite side). We collaborated on the frames with a unique center spindle  and a raised float to ensure none of the stunning art was covered.  Well done, GC! John

Got a little distracted. I picked up some stereo components and had some large speakers sitting so decided to put it all together. I made the speaker covers and had some light cloth sitting around and thought white covers would be unique.  Sounds awesome.  John

SecondMoonshot Warehouse Update #7

Image
Time to take the next step and moved into a warehouse at the beginning on October 2023. It is a conditioned 1875sqft metal building 5 minutes from my house with ample space to store vehicles, eBay inventory and shipping, and framing workshop. It is located in a nice section in Rolesville, NC and was able to get it at $1 per sqft. I am about 95% done with all the setup. Latest pics: Latest on 11/3/23 John
