- Metal stamping and punch press tooling
- Progressive, compound, or similar production dies

- Manual mills and lathes
- Punch and die sharpening
- Precision measurement and close-tolerance work
- Troubleshooting tooling under production conditions

If you are an experienced tooling professional who enjoys solving problems and keeping presses running, we would like to talk with you.
Competitive compensation based on experience. We are willing to pay for the right person.
