“Appleton Farms” Laser etching on Hammers
We were approached by Mrs. Hoffman from Appleton Farms who came up with the idea of etching on hammers. She asked if we could do it in a way which would preserve the old fashion look of the hammers. That’s why we decided to simply engrave “Appleton Farms” on the wooden handle.

Next step was to put our innovative minds together to come up with the design and we used one of our CO2 lasers etcher to engrave the handle of the hammers. Supposedly it was the most popular item; all 50 hammers sold out in a matter of minutes!

Letters from career day 2009

One of our indispensable sales managers, Paul Strunk was asked by his 11 year old daughter to come in for career day and talk about what he does for a living. Anyone who knows Paul also knows that he would never pass up an opportunity to crack a few jokes! He did however also have an agenda – encouraging young kids to stay in school and pursue a college degree.

Paul himself got his business degree while also serving in the Navy. After getting out he started working in sales and has been in this industry for the last thirteen years. Due to Paul’s endless sense of humor and slight sarcasms the kids seem to enjoyed his 10 minutes speech - he even got fan mail!
