Finding an Aspiring artist to take over my clock business

Post by bobrickard »

I want to semi-retire and divest myself of one of my business lines (KronosWorks.com contemporary metal clocks), but I’m not sure how to go about it.

I use Aspire, but VCarve Pro would work just fine.

I use a ShopBot Desktop MAX, but I’m going to keep mine, so anyone interested will need their own CNC. The largest pieces are 10.5” x 28.5” and cut from 6061 aluminum.

As I sell my work wholesale, I first thought about contacting the galleries which represent me and asking if they could suggest one of the other artists they represent who might want to expand their offerings. But because of the investment in equipment required for anyone not already working with CNC, I’m not sure that is a practical approach.

Any suggestions on how I can go about finding a younger CNC’er with more energy than I now have would be appreciated.

I'm sorry, I can't help you, but that is some beautiful sculpture, really striking designs. I have the ShopBot, but absolutely no talent. Good luck...joe
