A Quick Update

And I forgot to say, this year I expect you to all save your easter egg money and save up your pennies for my product launch.....bulk buying will be appreciated!!

The First Blog..

Well here we go, dragged into the 21st century the JDM_Designs blog kicks off...

The story so far.....

The initial idea of what we will call product 'X' was thought up on a beach, in fact the above very beach and following the complicated registration process the development began.
With the help of industry superstars (you know who you are) the fag packet sketches became 3d computer models, then prototypes and now (drum-roll) are in the factory being tooled out of a big chunk of aluminium....next stage...next blog!
