I like tools a whole lot. It's in my blood, almost literally. My grandfather on one side was a tool and die maker. I still have his tools, and I use them. The one on the other side was a man who could literally figure out how to fix anything and still have 10 fingers by the end of the job.

From them, I inherited the "do it until you figure out how to do it right" ethos. And to that I added the idea that a tool is made to do something and do it well. If it happens to look pretty, well that's just gravy. But it has to work.

I make tools for people who make things, and I make them at a price that regular people can swing. Just ask the seventy-five percent of my customers who keep coming back for more.
