...from Colorado.

Announcing the relocation of my shop to Tempe, AZ. E-mail and web site remain the same, and my new phone number is (480) 275-2164.

Back in March of this year, my wife and I were on a golfing vacation to the Phoenix area - 82 degrees and pure sunshine. We pretty much decided that given the right circumstances we wouldn't mind giving up the Colorado winters by relocating. Our decision was reinforced the day after our return to Colorado when we woke up to a fresh 10" blanket of snow.

In June, opportunity threw the doors wide open for us and we made the decision to go for it. We are now settled in and the new shop is up and running.

A very special thank you to Ted Yost, who has been a wealth of help during this transition. Big thanks, my friend.

BTW, we took great delight is giving our snow shovels away before our departure. :mrgreen:

Nice one! Congrats on the move. I don't blame you a bit. AZ is the only place I've been outside the South that I'd like to live.

Now *THAT'S what I'm talking about! Cabela's has started construction of a new store just a few miles north of my office. I keep threatening to see if I can work some kind of deal with them so I can have a "satellite" office there. Heck, there'd be no reason to even go home.

The fact that the ASU Karsten golf club is exactly right between Ted's shop and mine is significantly distracting for both of us.... :lol:

Beautiful build, and congrats on the move. AZ is really turning out to be the custom 1911 state.

Welcome to Arizona. I only get to visit once a year but the trip is worth it. Relocation may come later in a year or 5 but as we all know our full time job is the driving source.

Again, Welcome to Arizona. My wife and I just finished a week there and Tempe, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley and above all the desert.

Desert sunrise and a desert sunset are something to behold.
