Lee,

I have been following the progress on your product for some time. Having an opportunity to create a product that is well thought out and is practical must be very exciting and not without its stresses.

Congratulations on bring your idea to market.

Lee,

Thanks for sharing this with the group. I can only imagine your excitement when you were shown the assembly line of your systems. It is wonderful to see this success, which you so rightly deserve, come your way. Congratulations and I hope that each of the units pictured is already sold.

Good luck Lee.

Lee….sooooo exciting…congrats…I cant wait for the next update…

-- Matt, Napa, CA...SING WITH ME: "Sum...sum...sum...summ...summ...summ...summertime..."

great news , how many firm orders do have for end users or are you building inventory for retailers ?

-- ..... smalll army of cast iron wingnuts !! cool photo in FORUM

I’m glad ,& happy for you Lee, you deserve this success.

Now if I see one of these in a store, I’ll be able to tell people, a friend of mine invented that device.

I’m proud to be your friend.

-- Dick Cain, Hibbing, MN. http://www.woodcarvingillustrated.com/gallery/member.php?uid=3627&protype=1

I’ll bet you feel like a proud papa. Glad to hear about this successful step forward.

-- "Bordnerizing" perfectly good lumber for over a decade.

Awesome, awesome, awesome…...I can’t even imagine how excited you must be. Congratulations!

-- Bob, Carver Massachusetts, Sawdust Maker http://www.capecodbaychallenge.org

Great new Lee – I bet you are excited. Now, all you have left to do is pay for them and sell them :-)). Doesn’t get any easier, but you’ve got the most important part out of the way. Now you have something to sell – and it should do quite well, considering it is a tool that any large shop should have.

Lee Congratulations on the break-over in the assembly. From you to them. Glad to see it working out for you.

God Bless you.

Hi guys;

I am really impressed with the good wishes and congratulations coming from all of you. I was concerned about seeming like I was just bragging, which really wasn’t the plan, I just needed to share it with friends who could understand.

As Cajunpen mentioned, all I have to do know is pay for them and sell them.

Dan; many of the units shown are sold. I’m not selling to retailers at this time.

Scott says: With God’s help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby, and it gets worse when you do what I did. I’ll never be able tell,you what the past few years have been like. Finances that used to be a non issue suddenly became unworkable.

I watched the bank come and take my shinny new corvette away for non payment, as well as my nice new thirty foot sport fishing boat.

The cabinet and construction business is operating at about thirty percent of normal, which means I am required to do a good bit of the of the work myself. Something I hadn’t had to do for many years.

My job required me to drive around to meeting in a nice car, wearing nice clothes,and going to meeting for a few hours a day. I would do a walk thru several jobsites and tell the site supervisor whet I wanted done and
by when.

My average day took me about three hours to finish,which included an hour for lunch.The ego stroking was fun as no matter who was at the job, I was the top dog. And The money was awesome.

Thats why today was such shock to me,one of the first few positive things to happen in an while. Faith has the power to take you a long way without promising anything in return, just a maybe. Today was a big maybe.

Dick I thank you for your very touching words.

I’m proud to have all of you as my friends!

Lee, I wish you nothing but the best. Remember us when you are rich and famous.

-- Maplewood, MN

He Lee
As a user of the Ezee feed I’m glad to see that you are now moving on to the next step. I had no idea the sacrifice that you’ve been going through however. When i met you and saw your shop, I was quite impressed and envious. I’m confident even if you have doubts that ezee feed will be a very succesful endeavor.

Hope to attend another picnic this summer.

Hi Rikkor;

Who is this? LOL

Thank you very much for the wishes, it means a lot to me.

Lee

Hi Mark;

The scheduled picnic is June 21 st I believe. I have to check that with Karson.

Your words are VERY much appreciated.

I’ll try to keep your confidence level in the product in mind. (I’ve had my doubts at times that I could stick it out).

Again, I have to say this is a great group of people, which would explain why we spend so much time here.

Congrats Lee. I hope this will take off for you. Maybe you will even be selling to retailers someday soon.

Hi Bill;

Thank you. From your lips to Gods ears!

Lee

Wow…Lee…I felt great when I saw your great news yesterday…Now I am ecstatic knowing that your sacrifice to make this “a go” has been so hard in other ways…I cant wait to hear in a couple months: “Well guys…I am picking up my new corvette and running over to the factory for the 1,000th order comng off the assembly line…”

It will all work out in the end…and then I will come visit to take a boat ride…and I will pull up to the Vette in my pinto…lol…(I actually owned a pinto in high school—-I never got any dates…).

Kiddding aside…is there a web link that you have created that talks about the product???

-- Matt, Napa, CA...SING WITH ME: "Sum...sum...sum...summ...summ...summ...summertime..."

Lee,

Congratulations, it must be such a great feeling of accomplishment to see your own creation on these assembly lines. It’s good to see that your hard work is finally paying off, well deserved. Best of luck!

-- Nick, Fremont, CA.

Hi Nick;

Thank you much for the kind words and wishes. And yes it really was a staggering site, especially since I had no idea what I was in for. I didn’t have a clue what to expect.

Lee

Hi Matt;

Thank you for your comments.

The only place that talks about the product is the website. The video was done by our own David in his Folding Rule Program, and the site itself was built by Tom, (Mot). He didn’t like the site I built, saying it cheapened the product, and offered to make a more professional site. . (He was correct)

I owe much thanks to both of them.

In addition to the financial challenges, I also spent every night researching existing patents, (which I started out knowing nothing about), and there were thousands of them to be checked.

Then I studied how to get a patent, how to write the patent papers and claims so I was protected, and then drove to Virginia to file the provisional patent.

Then it was learn how to build a website, including the Pro Woodworking Tip site, which included writing all the articles and finding and loading the photo’s. (Getting close to three hundred pages I believe).

Most nights I went to bed at three or four in the morning, and sometimes I didn’t make it to bed at all.

It’s really been a crazy experience, but I learned a lot.

Jude;

Wow, I just checked out your posting. It’s fantastic!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, once again.

It is very much appreciated.

Lee, I think everthing you touch is first class and it is so nice seeing one of the good guys getting a break. I don’t need to wish you luck that would imply chance. When you set you mind to something it’s a done deal. Continued success my friend.
