B-Man 4,756 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 There will be mental vindication when you run across some of the idiots we talked about. ? Find a good tax person / accountant. Start keeping a mileage log in your vehicle to track ALL work related mileage - including travel to Carverfest. Keep every receipt and note on the back who / what the expense was. My hunting buddy does this for the properties we manage and hunt on and it is amazing the amount of $$ his tax guy saves him every year - completely legally. You guys work for it, Uncle Sam is going to try and take what he can - it's up to you to protect it !! I won't say good luck - this isn't about luck. It's about drive, skill, brains - you two have all of that in spades !!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewJohn 6,281 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 OK, we know that pictures make the thread... Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Greg should post a picture of his "bench" here? a.k.a. his new workplace? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcl 3,072 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) When I set out on my own, my wife & I busted azz, moved everything in, set it all in place then...took two weeks off. Perhaps not what some would counsel but it was never about the $$$. As she said, "If you ever start talking about this statistic, or that, I will do two things: 1. Kill you. 2. Then divorce you. Find your 5HI7 on the lawn." That was a polite way of saying , Follow your heart. Wishing you both continued success & every happiness.

Nahash5150 9,362 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 I was quite sick last week, still recovering. Worst flu I've had in a decade at least. Anyway, we've been busy. Turning over repairs and mods, cutting and splitting wood for the winter (yeah, I'm late) and loads of prep work for the business. I'm ready for scheduling work. I no longer have a year long waiting list. I also take everything - even outside of Carver. Prices are negotiable right now, as I don't have all the resources I need, but getting there. Peace! 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nahash5150 9,362 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Thanks guys! @Bean The console looks interesting...but I think that beast is all yours! Also, For what it's worth, my new phone number is 231-388-2309. This will be Nelion Audio's service number. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL.... yeah, I'm bringing home a label maker tomorrow from work so I can start labeling and disconnecting things so I can pull the tube amp out to check the tubes, get more pics, and clean the chassis. Then the tuner and input selector will get the same treatments. I'm leaving the TT for now, if I remove it, I will just clean it up so it looks brand new, its not ever going to be used. If it "does" work, thats a plus just so I can know its fully functional, but thats it... Edited October 28, 2018 by Bean 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67bird 27 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 So Glad I found Greg over a year ago for my Carver amp repairs! He is a great guy and very talented. To date Greg has upgraded all five of my M500t's to MKII, refurbished a pair of Silver 7t's and just restored the M4.0t I fried with my Carver Originals "Amp killers". Thanks for breathing new life in all my aging audio gear! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
