Understood....

Maybe I should be more specific? grin.

Malls are becoming Obsolete in the U.S precisely.

Amazon was and still is the number one killer..

Malls are just on the brink of death by a thousand cuts. Do you know how many malls are sitting empty in the U.S? Lots of them,

Most business renting the large spaces are "reinventing " themselves and investing more in the online space.. less overhead and more efficient (sort of).

Some big tenants are gradually going out of business, SEARS etc.. Jcpenney, Macy's, Kohls etc.. refusing to renew their leases in some locations and rather diverting to online sales. Moreover, foot traffic have reduced as well in the malls.

Funny enough most of all the big mall tenants are in one financial trouble or another... late last year, there was a rumored take over of Jcpenney by Amazon ( I pray that's not true ).

Based on my USA experience the last thing I’ll invest in is a mega mall, not a mega mall.

Online sales, escrow and delivery are the at forward for Nigeria.

On another note, who remembers Service Merchandise and Price Club? �

True. But as someone who doesn't like what everyone else is doing, I'm gonna design my gate myself, except in cases where I don't have the luxury of time.

People also do stainless gate these days.


You are so on point Sir, we all can't be doing same thing nor like or want same thing. But I will go for something that will not easily go out of vogue that fast except I'm designing for a client with a specific brief n details to be followed.
Stainless, that's another guy ohhhhh

Environment dictates our final choice.

Even when we set out with the best intentions and out-of-this-world design, it's no use if our environment dictates otherwise.

A good and functional design must pick from what other people are doing and the way our environment is set up to determine how we should act.

If I may ask Sir, environment in what way/context?
What we see that are mostly used around or the choice of material available in that particular environment.
More light on that Sir. Thanks

This is one of the benefits of my metalwork hobby. I can visualize and apply myself directly without any artisan telling me that it can’t be done or this is how we’ve always done it.

Egun you no am advocate of safety. I will advise you to take safety class with this your passion for fabricating stuff's, because you're there doesn't mean you should be doing things the same way. You know better, you should exhibit those safety precaution just as you are displaying technicality of using tools to get accurate finish. I no say make Baba go back to school ooo, baba can pick up book or take remedial courses about safety. You can't be sparking light on a wood or combustible stuffs around our your wielding station without blanket, I do not see any fire extinguisher around your wielding area these are simple items that are suppose to be around before you spark a light. I don't want to be extreme to even ask you to get a fire guard around your wielding area in case of any fire outbreak, God forbid. LOL

I just now watched a documentary on CNN with the owner of AliBaba? And some outfit in the UK doing drone delivery.

AliBaba with robotic merchandise processing and the UK outfit already doing drone delivery.

But trust Nigerians to be behind the curve. But then all those I’ll gotten funds have to be washed somehow.

Very neat workstation you got there, unlike what we normally see here with dirts, spilled black oil on the floor, scraps and waste everywhere.

Thumbs up. You are representing your exposure very well. Please, inculcate that neatness and orderliness in other artisans working for you.

Prices of iron rods in Asaba this morning

16mm N6,800 each length
12mm N3,900 each length
8mm N1,900 each length
Roll of binding wire 20kg N12,000

Nigeria is getting better grin
Exorbitant prices with significant reduction in sizes of rebar and probably quality.
12mm now almost 10mm, same applies to all.
