Hope u got re-energized Eli. We make tooling for the aircraft industry. I'm a toolmaker. Uno all that stuff u see around an airplane that being built, in short, that's tooling. An aircraft is made up of hundreds of castings. Our main field of work is tooling for those castings. Ex: The steering wheel of a commercial jet is a casting. It comes out of the mold really rough and un-finished. I make tooling (fixturing) to hold that rough casting so it can be finished machined. We are C&B Tools in La Habra.
Our side line is billet v-drive components for the boating industry (Collins V-Drives). I was raised on flat bottoms growing up and then got away from that world once I got married and started working as a machinist. Then I started my own business in '97 and met the late Ron Braaksma Top Fuel Hydro driver and owner in '01. That's how my v-drive stuff got started.
Well, TMI? lol lol. Don't look now Eli, but we're bonding!!!
