Harry J Epstein Day / Wright Tool Meet-Up

[Ohio Andy]

How many hours drive is it from Kansas city? I don't do the TSA.


Edit oh wow that would be a train ride and hotel to get there a day early since Amtrak is always late

About 12 hours for a normal drive

 

[NUTTSGT]

Don't plan a specific date on my behalf. I work every third day but I can look at my calendar to see if I actually work. Even if I'm off, there's always an OT shift that appear.

 

[JStrawmyer]

I'm interested!

 

[jsackin]

still waiting to hear back...

 

[rwa2004]

I am very interested - I would also be interested to know if it would be acceptable for 2 teenagers to join and learn.

 

[ptabatcher]

14 will work for me. Blocking my calendar!

I assume so unless wright says 18+ only.

 

[zanyad]

My boys are in elementary school, so I'm hoping under 18's may participate!

I would be interested in visiting wright. I always enjoy visiting factories and seeing how things are made.

Excellent, we are still waiting to hear back from Wright... Be sure to subscribe so that you'll notice when we post more information.

Depending on the date and if I can get the day off, I might be interested in joining! I love wright tools. Sounds like a fun day!

For those that do not know, if this works, it is because @jsackin from HJE reached out to Wright Tool, but we have not yet heard back from Wright Tool about the plausability of a tour on August 14.

Unsure of the delay from Wright Tool, maybe we bought too much stuff from Wright Tool and they are struggling to keep up with demaind

Yeah I am a bit perplexed at their lack of response but their rep is scheduled to come by next week so hopefully he’ll have some news.

[Etchase]

I thought wright thought the fall would be good timing?

Well, I wouldn’t call mid-august “fall”. lol.

hopefully they agree or, suggest another date that might work for a large group.

 

[jsackin]

Talked to the Wright rep this week. They are still “processing” what they want to do so I don’t think it will be August. Sometimes these smaller companies are much more private about their manufacturing then you would realize so we’re working on them but it might take a little longer than I thought. Will keep you in the loop though. Still think it would be a blast!

Thanks, we take what we can get when we can get it...

 

[rwa2004]

I am excitedly watching for updates.

 

[BriSco]

Any update?

 

[liliysdad]

I’m getting the feeling Wright doesn’t much want to deal with the public in most matters…
