Thanks for the responses all,
Well Barry it does look like I am going to do something, probably just on-line at first, then maybe a storefront. My original storefront plan fell through as the locations were just not that appealing. The good news is (well, for you anyways) is that if (or when) I do open a storefront the odds are pretty good that it will be in the Cumming/Sugar Hill area.
I do plan on doing some buy/sell/trade type formats. Right now I am loading up my inventory, I am trying to get some motion control stuff as we speak. I just scored some L292 chips that I will let slide on the cheap for you cnczone guys.
I am also working a solid lead on some metalworking tooling, more info on that later.
I will post more info probably mid-late July when I get the web-site up. Getting the inventory is taking a bit longer than expected... If you have any questions or requests in the meantime let me know. I will stock what the you guys want (or at least try) and so far, I will be able to sell all of it at far less than anywhere I could find on-line.
This project is DEFINITELY moving forward, maybe not with the same trajectory as originally thought. Barry and the rest of those around ATL, once the website is running I have no problem meeting cnczone folks in N. ATL to drop off items to save on shipping.
Thanks for all of the interest, and this is definetly going to be a go... I have too much invested now NOT to do something! Can't let minor set-backs stop me, right?!
