New Home for Aloft Hobbies

I should mention that everyone that has worked on the new warehouse is a RC pilot, including the electrician and the kid. :)

Those existing fans are the right price.., and they do work pretty well. But yeah.. maybe in the future. Or maybe we make our own.

I reckon you should have enough gutpile wings to cobble up a few ceiling fans, Wayne!

I mean who is going to throw away a perfectly good wing?

HInt: "Wanted, 3m Left hand orphan moulded wings"

Nice feature!

We are moving..

In case you are wanting to stop by the shop, we are officially packing up and moving to our new location. While shipping will continue for the next week from our current location, we may not be able to provide the level of service we typically offer as we pack more and more of the store. We thank you for your understanding.
 
While we have been moving little loads here and there, we have officially stepped it up.

Some empty shelves at Novato now..

Just using our trucks right now.. Don't think my dog loved the full load:

And a bit of play after unloading on a hot day, Chris racing his son Sam:

(the property came with some kids toys.)
 
We got some ugly days coming up..

Shipping will be reduced on Thursday, and non-existant on Friday. Should be back up and running on Monday. Manufacturing will probably be lagging a day or three as we get everything installed and calibrated, etc.

We are already getting stock shipments to the new location. :)
 
I ordered something this week and almost felt bad, but it did already ship.

I hope some of the shipments to the new location are from Royal Models. :cool:
 
Royal is shipping direct to the new shop. :) Should already be on the way. I didn't want to move those big birds more than I had too. LOL

Yesterday Rafael and I did a final load of small stuff and got the shops ready to receive the main inventory. A shipping computer setup and tested, and the cardboard CNC home established. Cleaned up the place, put some overstock inventory up on the rolling shelving and even a bit of paint.

Today racks start rolling in.

Looking really good, Wayne. A long time coming, but Wow!

Congratulations to you and the faithul Aloft crew who all seem to have mucked-in!

I'd love to see your houndage let loose in that nice big doggie run you have...They'll all be skinny fur missiles in no time! Now you just have to get that damn mower fixed!;)

The Aloft team did a great job prepping and moving everything to the new location. Today will be our first day working here.

This is just the start, we still have a lot of improvements and projects for the space. We still have a LOT of organization and setup to accomplish. But we are back to basic functions today, and that was the goal. I'll not show you the production space as it is total chaos, and the Red Barn is no better. At this point the ugly move is behind us, and the fun steps are left to do.

Congrats! Looks awesome, and I bet you are stoked to have it all behind you know.

Got to 85 in the warehouse today. Not ideal. We have a few fixes in the works.

The big roll up door in the back gets the morning sun and is a solar oven. We slapped some spare foam up against it today as a bandaid. Will be putting up a sun block very soon.
