Ready Made Frames This week, I’m reporting from the frontline of the worst dust storm in 70 years – and I’m smiling to myself as I sit in my newly air conditioned factory where the dust can’t get me! (Although, I may not be smiling so much when I go outside to find my car covered in a thick layer of red dust. Hmmm….)
So while we have the luxury of shutting out the world for a day, we’ve clicked up a notch on our production of ready-made frames. I&rs... Read more

It’s not unusual for me to be here at 4am on weekends.... and no... Read more
