With all the problems and bad news, this is a good news story.

This factory is in Massilon, Ohio and in the old days I used to cruise that area for sales.
The area has been devistated by the loss of steel and steel making equipment companies.

It is also known for some of the best high school football in the U.S. The Canton-Massilon rivalry
is well known and the games are what real small town living is all about. At least, they used to be.

Take a few minutes and watch this.

That story reminds me of one of my buddies and fellow forum member... he'll probably kill me for posting this or maybe not...

Thanks Mark for the info.

Rob, I appreciate what you are doing. I spent over fifty years in the machining/fabricating business and up to last year,
repped a couple shops not too far from you in Tempe. Good looking shop, clean and nice looking products. Keep up
the good work.

How cool, Rob! Which show are you trying out for?

I used to do a little fabrication work myself... the building across the street from where the D'backs play (used to be the Collier Center) it has the second story that opens up, that was some of the work we did... we put in airplane hanger doors and then the glazers put in the glass... also did most of the hanger doors at Scottsdale air park too...
