We Moved into the Beaver Barn!

2 Nov

Onward & Upwards.

We said goodbye to a space which saw us produce our first flawless coin, set a record and prove to Canadians, that it can, in fact, be done. The property was sold, we had to relocate, Green’s cousin Darren let us move into his barn and temporarily operate out of there until we get moving again. Moving in general is always very stressful, difficult and just hard. Having to move an entire minting operation only adds an exponential amplifier into the mix. Its taken a month or so to get everything all moved, sorted, positioned and installed and finally connected.

Our primary backer was never able to see the space she helped to create and we wish this building which was our home, all the love possible and thank it for hosting us during this critical phase.

-Every 2×4, sheet of OSB, drywall, wire, screw and paint stroke, all remembered and now, consigned to history. Everything was dismantled. We wish the new owners all the best in the future with their new space! May it serve you with creativity and joy as it did us.

The Beaver Barn

The next chapter, albeit, temporary. As we methodically spin up production, we look forward to seeing what emerges from the barn and what sort of inspired works come into reality.

3 phase industrial power!

-Molly McButtercup, our lovely, playful, gentle spirit of a Golden Retriever Molly can’t help but be excited to share her joy that we finally have been able to get the minting tools which require industrial 3 phase power all connected, tested and all the equipment and precautions taken to ensure nothing was damaged was worth it. This phase has been exhausting as its the 4th move in the last 10 years and once we get out of debt and complete our word of honour, then we plan on moving again into what will be our forever home. Below are a small amount of pictures that show the move and where we moved into.

We have without a doubt, the finest backers, supporters, friends and family anywhere in the world today, whom have supported this this dream, and they are one of the core reasons, this beaver never gives up.
