OSHA TRAINING

TRAINING IS A BIG AT IN-HOUSE PRODUCTION.

GREAT NEWS. THIS OSHA CLASS WAS A BIG HIT. WE HAVE NOW ADDING A CLASS FOR THIS WEEK. WE HAVE 10 MORE CREW MEMBERS IN THE 2 DAY CLASS.

We have put together a OSHA 10 HOUR CONSTRUCTION AND GENERAL INDUSTRY TRAINING CLASS. We have a total of 30 of our top employees attending this 2 day training class. We have put together 2 classes with a total of 15 in each class. Classes are January 29 and 30, then February 18 and 19 of 2009.

Some of the top Las Vegas Entertainment Riggers and ETCP Riggers will have a little more to add to their knowledge when it comes to WORKING SAFE and SAFETY IN THE WORK PLACE.

WAREHOUSE FUN

In-House Production has been working on our warehouse for some time now. This warehouse is where we keep all our rental gear. Chain Motors, Truss and Platforms plus a lot more. Everything in one place. 9000 square feet with a 25000 square foot yard. That works. The Pearl Concert Theater loading dock at the Palms Hotel is a 7 iron away from our front door.
For the past 10 months we have tried to have 3 phase power installed. Working with Nevada Power and a licensed Electric Contractor has been fun. After all that, we now have 2 - 200 amp panels hanging on the wall. All they have to do now is pull the wire. We are hopping by the end of this month we will have 3 phase power. We took over this warehouse back in March of 2008 with our power needs to be done within 2 months. All of this for 3 phase chain motors. 50 amps would have worked. Now we have 400 amps. It will be nice to have all our rental gear in one place and not moving it from the office where we have 3 phase power.

Stop by and take a look. We like to show it off.

MATERIAL HANDLING

WHAT A LOT OF RACKING. When you look at the CAD drawing of rows of racking you thing "no problem". Everything looks small on a piece of paper, but when you see over 3300 feet of racking all in one building all you say is WOW. When you stand at one end of the racking and look all the way to the other end, you say "WOW" that is a lot of racking.

Our main man Dan has lead a crew of 6 on this mission of racking. They did a great job. You look down the row and it goes on and on. I can't even thing of what it will take to fill all that racking. Good luck filling that.

NEW INVENTORY

2009 started out great. We rented out stage truss and chain motors to Pro Stage West. They had several booths they were taking care of at this years 2009 CES Show in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Convention Center this January.

To help fill Pro Stage West order, we added to our stock of rental items over 1000 feet of new 12" x 12" truss. We also added CM 1/2 ton motors and controllers, plus a new 20' circle truss out of 12" x 12" truss. What a great addiction to our rental stock. Truss, Chain Motors and 10' and 20' round truss made from 12"x12" truss.

CHRISTMAS PARTY 2008

On December 19th all of us at In-House Production got together with our families and had a great night of eating, dancing and parting. It was a great night to dress up with family members and do something other then work. This years Christmas party was at Panevino Ristorante across the from the airport on Sunset.

I have to say the Atmosphere was great and the D.J. ROCKED. We look forward to the next Christmas party and where it will be, no one knows.
