Hello, I have worked in Aerospace for 39 plus years for the USAF Space Command (satellites + missiles) ,NASA (Space Shuttle), Spec Ops, and Dept of Defense working in advanced technology, propulsion and flight safety of fixed wing and rotary aircraft. I have enjoyed owning my own race shop (primarily road race motorcycles but including go karts, jet skis, cars) and worked as a consultant for several Motorsports companies to include Red Line Oil which exposed me to Motocross to NASCAR to Baja race teams and technology. Got my first toolset at age 5, graduated from Advanced Auto Shop in High School at the top of my class and have been wrenching ever since! Tried framing and did an apprenticeship in plumbing, studied HVAC before focusing on Machine Tool Technology and later Reliability Engineering in aircraft and Aerospace industries. I have toolaholic tendencies and appreciate learning from others experience, lessons learned and improved techniques, and count on GJ as a solid source of experience and expertise in tool review use and purchasing intelligence! Previously a certified welder. Love to innovate, fix and improve! Prior experience roadracing motorcycles and car, enjoy dirt biking, skiing, wave runners, and auto endurance road racing where detailed preparation, strategy and reliability win! I am a patriot who seeks to purchase product and services that are American made, designed and owned, when and where possible at all times!

American Made = Global Innovation
