Reactivation of the shopping cart for the manufacturing capacities in March 2019 will be on December 1st, 2018 00:00 CET. (See countdown below)39
At some point the time has come and that´s now !
SM-factory will open its shopping cart for orders for the last time on 1st. of Dec.2018 and at the end of the year I will take the website down.Everything started 19 years ago as a "one man factory" and it has remained that way until today, because the quality and individuality of my products was the most important thing for me.
Meanwhile, I′m retired since 5 years and the 7 before the age comes slowly in sight.
Even though SM-factory is still very successful, I have to decide if I want to spend my remaining time in my workshop, or if I prefer to devote more time to family and life.
I have chosen this decision for me now and hope for your understanding.
If there is someone who is seriously interested in and able to continue to run SM-factory, he or she is welcome to contact me.
Otherwise, I will sell the machines, inventory, domains, and any remaining products separately next year.
For the trust placed in me over the years, I would like to sincerely thank all my customers.

To put things in perspective
here is the complete quote from Ruskin mentioned earlier:?There is hardly anything in the world that some man cannot make a little worse and sell a little cheaper, and the people who consider price only are this man′s lawful prey.
It′s unwise to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money -- that is all. When you pay too little, you may lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do.
The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot -- it can′t be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run. And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better."
John Ruskin,
English Philosopher
1819-1908
