The training that I did earlier this week is unique for me in that it's the 2nd round of training that I did on the same machines. You see, in August 2010 I went to Kansas City to train Sheila on two brand new machines, she recently sold the machines and gave the new buyer my name as a trainer. The girls (two AMAYA machines) have been split up but are both now residing in Poplar Bluffs, MO.
One of the girls is finding a home with Tanya and Dale. Tanya is looking forward to making lots of fun and creative gifts for her grandchildren. With all the great designs out there for kids, this should prove to keep Tanya stitching for hours on end. I can't wait to see what creative things she comes up with.
The other machine is now residing at Stinson Press. Stinson Press is a multi-facated business offering screen printing, banners, business forms along with off-set printing and a mailing service. I'm thinking that this machine is going to see a lot more logo work than her sister.
It was a pleasure working with Tanya, Dale, Robert and Kelly. It was nice going down and meeting the crew, and it's great that they see the value in getting the proper training to run their machines. Melco machines are not hard to run, but it is nice when someone is able to help you with getting up and running and getting the background on hooping, stabilizers, needles, etc to keep the machines running smooth and the frustration to a minimum.
My wish for "the girls" is that they keep running smoothly and making lots of stitches.
