If you open it he won't give you warranty service.

Storefront has been closed for a few years now I believe. Working out of his home workshop nowadays.

Hmmm, There is a new address on the Oade site today, same building picture, but it now the site says the building is for sale. You'd have to do a bit of sprucing up to make the building look that good again. I remember the property looked a bit run-down when I saw it Tuesday.
