UPDATE, AS OF JULY 1, 2026 

I AM NOW CLOSED TO ALL NEW ORDERS !

         My first task in July will be to fill and ship all remaining orders as of July 1. As I closed out yesterday, I had a final backlog of at least 173 orders in the queue, to be filled. June was the busiest month I have ever had for incoming orders! EVERYONE awaiting an order WILL get it filled and shipped, but I WILL also say that from this point on, I'm working at my own pace, and not necessarily 9 hour days anymore. I also am spending increasing time every day tending to my wife's medical needs and all household tasks. That all comes first.

PLEASE DO NOT CALL INQUIRING ABOUT YOUR ORDER. I DON'T MIND IF YOU EMAIL ME WITH INQUIRIES, BUT FOR THE MOST PART, I AM NOT TAKING PHONE CALLS.

Once that is completed, my second task will be to complete an inventory of all remaining parts to be included in the sale of the PARTS portion of this business. There are several individuals waiting for that inventory, the asking price for the Parts business, and other details of the sale. I anticipate all that will happen before the end of July.

         After the Parts business has been sold and moved to the new owner’s location, I can then turn my attention to the liquidation process of all other business inventory, the bulk of which I expect to transfer to an online auction house, yet to be determined. Prior to that happening, I WILL be running some Liquidation Equipment Sales via this website, so check back periodically for details.

         At the appropriate times, I will announce on my website Home Page the new owner of the Parts business, and the auction house which I have chosen to use.

        My website will also remain in place for reference purposes, particularly the AF REPAIR CLINICS, which I may expand and update in the future, as I have more time to do so.

         That’s about it! I appreciate all the support and business you have all sent my way over the past 40+ years ! It has been a pleasure for me, and I have truly enjoyed meeting and helping so many S-gaugers that I can call “FRIENDS”. I hope it’s not the end of our contacts, but, the time has come!  THANK YOU ALL !
