[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 1477883, member: 6777"] Take it from a retired gunsmith. Its not about taking in too much work. Its about not being able to get the work done because the customers keep calling asking when it will be done. I would take in a gun and tell the customer not to call me for at least 30 days because I had to order parts and there was no guarantee the first place I tried would have the part. Guess what! The clown oops! I meant "fine customer" would start calling 2 days later and call damned near every day. This! times 10-15 of these fine customers meant I got no work done. I started leaving the phone off the hook and only answering at certain times of the day. Finally I ended up being open only 2 days a week for calls and walkins and closed the rest of the time to get the work done. [/QUOTE]
