An update on our Grandad Tools, Crystal McGann Tools, our Summer Sale, and some Company News!
Introduction
Hello everyone and welcome to our 102nd newsletter, today we have updates on our Grandad Tools, Crystal McGann Tools, stock updates on our sale, and some news about our company! So let's get into it.
Grandad Tools
Josh joined Kas at the LSP workshop this week and they have assembled and dark-washed all the Grandad Tools parts! Kas has also installed the LEDs, and is preparing to finish all Grandad Tools with electronics tonight! We want to thank Nathan Bennet for providing us with a custom made sound file used in our replicas! We are very pleased with the particular overlayed warble which was very hard to replicate, but perfectly achieved by Nathan! To all customers who have purchased one, an email has been sent out asking for your latest addresses, so do reply to that if you expecting to receive one soon! Kas will be purchasing shipping labels tonight and shipping them out tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled on your emails for tracking numbers! Thank you to all of you who have been waiting patiently for these, we are very excited to finally see them in all your collections!



Crystal McGann Tools
Josh has recently received all the foiled Crystal McGann parts from Josh M! They are now being QC'd and ready for all the additional parts to be added, and the aging to be completed, before undergoing final electronic assembly. Kas is working in the background to produce the wooden handles and the resin emitter sections!

LSP Company Update
Today, it is sad for me to announce that I will be leaving LSP, starting after the end of next week. In my 3 plus years here at the company, I have worked on over 2000 orders, from our etsy, our website, and our instagram. I have enjoyed every single one of them, and being able to have a job that let me work on passion projects such as all of our Eccleston and Tennant tools has been an absolute blast! However, I have decided I want to move on, and focus on new areas of work. In this next week, I will still be responding to emails, and working on passing on new queries to Dan, James and Josh H. I will also still even after leaving, be providing the team at LSP with items such as electronics, resin casting, stands, and foam, to make sure that they will be able to complete all of our current orders.
After I leave, Dan and James will be responding to email queries, and both of them with the help of Josh will be working on our remaining orders, and starting up new runs later this year! I am very excited to see what they come up with, and see what heights they will achieve. I am incredibly proud to have been a part of this company, and I wish all of them nothing but the best after I leave!
And with that, that brings us to the end of this newsletter. Next time, you'll catch Dan and James on Sunday 2nd August, with more updates on Crystal McGann Tools. As this is my final newsletter, I wish all of you a lovely rest of your year! It has been an absolute pleasure! Goodbye folks!
