A New Beginning
- Today marks the introduction of the revamped website.
Am extremely excited to present a newly added ghetto cable configurator. I hope it helps to give a rough idea on how the cable will look like. It is definitely NOT "render" quality.
- On a side note, here are some of the things that I am working on
- Charity Stream. Will be providing some cables for a Twitch Streamer's Charity Stream some time at the end of the year.
- Own Fundraising. Am currently in contact with multiple Charity Orgs in Singapore to work out the details of holding a small fundraising (by sale of cables) "event" for them.
- Reopening of Commissions. With most of the backlog cleared, commissions should be opening soon, do keep a lookout as it would most likely be posted on Instagram first.
Disclaimer: I would really love for all these to materialise, but sometimes life happens and plans get pushed back a little. But nevertheless, I will do my best to keep this going as long as possible.
Remembering the reason for starting
It all began with the need to gift something that not only embodies my appreciation for some peoples' help. But at the same time I didn't want to get something off the shelf.
Fast forward, here, it has been a common practice to request for the cost of workmanship to be donated to a charity organisation of the clients' choice*. And I have plans to re-start the practice every once in awhile.
