I’ll admit my communication is lacking currently. I also do sewing commissions, silicone/latex masks, some blasters and sandtrooper packs so my client list is always thick. That said having a long list to work down is no excuse for not returning a pm in a timely manner but it can be an issue trying to contact 50 people 3 times a week only to say they’re not up yet. Preemptive updates don’t work for me.
One issue with turnaround is my open runs of stuff. I’ve thought about switching to capped runs. ROTJ braids are a prime example being that I have to dye a section and it’s not cost/time efficient to do them one order at a time hence me waiting until I have a handful to do. Girth belts as well I can’t order them one at a time and they’re difficult to size so I don’t keep many on hand. I promise I’m not riding the couch.
I’ll try and add some coal to the boiler and speed the train up.
