G'day people, long time no see and all that; haha I guess I missed crapping on to all you dingleberries so much I just couldn't stay away... Pathetic ain't it?:redface:
Anyways, I'm reiterating my offer of hospitality to wsn-ers. If you ever make it down this side of the globe; just hop on the back of the nearest kangaroo taxi, watch out for the drop bears and come say g'day.
Here's the pics of the my new shop (and although I own the shop I do the piercing and employ a tattooist). The pics are all of downstairs but upstairs is similar (the flash on my camera wasn't working properly, its a lot better lit than it looks in these pics):
The front:

Around to the right a bit:

The right hand side, you can see the stairs that lead up to where the second tattoo room is and the kitchen, sterilizing/cleaning room, toilets, back yard, rear parking, etc. is:

The other side:

Both tattoo rooms and the cleaning/sterilizing room are similar to my piercing room with the hands-free stainless sinks and benches, wall-mounted everything, etc. We've still got a ways to go; eg. the doors to the procedure rooms are about to be painted black with metal facings, I'm getting a custom jewellery cabinet fabricated, I'm getting rid of the flouro lights completely, etc. but I'm about 80% there. There was nothing in the shop when I first got it, just a crappy floor, four walls all painted a horrible gray and a shitty ceiling. Here's a pic of the outside before we started on it:
