New uses for old space

For about 30 years, The Toycrafter made toys in this room. It was several different things over the years we had this space, but mostly this was the print shop where we pad printed a few million toys - yes - really a few million over the years. We even pad printed easter eggs for the White House Easter Egg Roll for a few years. Before that, John Habersett made wonderful trivets, puppets, and turned wooden vases in this room. Before that, Beechnut Foods made various kinds of canned goods here.

It is now the studio/practice space for a band --- The Edge of Jupiter. In a closed space like this, they are very loud.... they were quite pleased when I told them they were louder than the CNC routers we used to run. Loud as it was, I found the music quite interesting. A check of their web site revealed that they have three albums, and all of their music is available on the web for listening or download. Go check them out!
