The Tip is 'Don't procrastinate' For years I've been buying ink jet cartridges from a big box office supply store. These cartridges were made overseas and labeled with the well-known brand of a large American printer company. One I remembered a local store that advertised quality cartridges. I had traveled by this local store hundreds of times but never stopped. This time I stopped at the local store. To my surprise I discovered that they carried the cartridge I needed and it was a Made in USA cartridge. Made in Chicago, to be precise, and it was half the price of the imported ones I had been buying for years. The quality is exceptional and they last longer too. Who knew? After that experience, I make a point to stop at every store I can. By doing so, I've been finding more and more Made in America products. Occasionally the clerks don't know the country of origin; this can be discouraging but finding the origin information yourself isn't difficult I've come to realize. Believe it not, there are actually a number of computers made in the US including laptops made in the USA. When the label is not visibly displayed I use the other Made in America buying tips to help me find Made in US. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. If enough people are asking for Made in America products stores will begin to carry them. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Timeless Wood Creations Welcome! Thanks for checking out my site. My name is Curt DeRoo and I have been a resident of West Michigan all of my life. I have also experienced the ups and downs of the Michigan economy. In order to plan a secure future for my family I am embarking on a new chapter in my life that includes my love for woodworking and extra income for my family. When I was trying to figure out a name for my company I thought of what working with wood means to me. Woodwork means craftsmanship, quality, customization, and timeless construction. I believe in making a quality product that will last and that meets your needs. My father is a craftsman and my fondest memories are of working with him in his shop learning his trade. My goal is to follow in his footsteps and make him proud. I am an engineer by trade which helps me visualize my customer's needs. My wife is a teacher and she is always asking me to make pieces that help her organize her classroom. She is always impressed when I can make a beautiful piece of furniture from a simple sketch and some measurements. Being an engineer for the past 20 years has helped me develop an eye for details. My wife often tells me I'm a perfectionist and I always exceed her expectations. I hope to bring that same ethic and attention to detail to the pieces I build for you. I am also used to meeting deadlines so rest assured your order will be a priority. Punctuality is very important to me. I hope you give me a chance to show off my workmanship and quality to build you a piece of timeless woodwork that you will enjoy for years to come. You can choose a piece that you see on my website or feel free to contact me with a unique idea and we'll see what we can figure out together. Thank you for considering Timeless Wood Creations and helping support a company with all Made in the U.S.A. products. Sincerely, Curt DeRoo |
