Our story began in the harsh deserts of Iraq, where our founder, an Iraq War veteran, first discovered his passion for precision machining while maintaining the Humvee that kept him and his patrol unit safe. It was there, in the field under pressure, that he learned to respect the craftsmanship, durability, and precision that can mean the difference between success and failure.

After returning home, he turned that passion into a career, spending nearly 20 years at Videojet, leading teams that built and refined industrial laser printers. Along the way, he engineered a successful rotary engine, blending creativity with mechanical expertise. But the injuries he sustained overseas eventually made the corporate life unsustainable, and his drive to get back on the shop floor pushed him to start his own company.
