Let me know if ya ever want to come and see my family shop, been around since 1926 in the same building we're in today, plus an additional one next door. Some old school WW2 era equipment and obviously modern CNC equipment. Still have the wheels on the ceiling from when the machines steam and belt driven and the oldest working freight elevator in the city!

I learned many years ago with my business, that having consistent social interactions even for routine bank stuff, with my bank. Made a huge difference when the inevitable mistakes happen. Instead of it taking 2-3 weeks sometimes to solve errors. I can often get stuff cleared up in a half hour to a day. Cause they know me, they don't have to question who is this person.

This is excellent! Both of you guys are a massive inspiration!

John and Jon, I just submitted my purchase order for a TM-0P, I am incredibly inspired by both of you and will be taking advantage of all the technology I’ve discovered through your videos and resources. Young machinists will owe you a lot whether they’d like to admit it or not.

Congrats!!!

Great video. Having a father or family member that is an experienced manager and or accountant seems to be a huge advantage. This reminds me to be grateful of all the business knowledge my father gave me. My general take away is; look at what unique advantages you have and utilise them. Geographic location, creative personality, business and technology skills etc. Every little confidence booster helps. -Ken

Wow, that shop has come a long way! I love Area 419 products. Always top notch quality and always innovative.

This was an awesome video. I really appreciated the questions that You asked along with Jon’s super Honest answers. Great job on this one John. Keep up the good work👍

I am small and after getting a good customer base and product line built up I now deal with our local credit union. They are very easy to work with and have great rates.

This video is chocked full of good advice! Especially the deal about the bank, so true.

Always love hearing about Area 419's progress, a little envious as per usual, but always shows me what is possible with what I know already.

I think key for any startup is sales. you have to know who your customer is and how you meet them when they are shopping. Having a product like gunparts or machine fixtures makes thing easier imho.

Why are all John's (Jon) ...so bloody brilliant?. Saunders,addis,grimsmo😳

This video is exactly what I need thank you

@@nyccnc Thanks for your messaging!

The x1.25 speed on John's interjections are a bit jarring sometimes. But that doesn't take away from the great answers!

Essentially, be in the market and do what you do. If you're good at what you do, you might get lucky and find your niche.

They make a beautiful realoading press wish i had the money to buy one all i could do is admire it for now lol 😄

dude, stop meeting new John or Jon's who runs his own CNC shop JK, great work, keep going

87 problems but shower cookies aren't one.

This entire video seems like a commentary on Grimso lol. Total opposites..

He is telling half the story, he can't even tell his story straight............................
