with 1 great employee that is truly treated as an asset, we manufacture, in the USA, plastic injected model aircraft kits and accessories for flying models. We run ABS, PS, TPE, and some Nylon. Learned Injection mold machines on my own (lot easier than semi machines) and even innovated a mold making concept that seems to be new to the mold makers, and it works well. I do all machine repairs as well, from circuit board level to hydraulics or electrical. Built the steel building we're in myself as well- another new experience. Designed my first molds and put a new product into production this past year. Now learning CNC machining processes, Laser, and rapid prototype processes.

Hired on as sales and inventory and quickly worked up to General Manager. Helped the company grow significantly as a National Mail Order company specialized in Radio Controlled model aircraft, as well as boats and cars. R/C flying was my hobby, and I was very in tune with the customers. Came up with the concept of scrolling film screen (to clear dirt away) for cameras mounted on Indy 500 cars when they first attempted to attach a radio controlled camera.Was known as model engine expert and ran the engine trade in program. Had minor, but useful input on Como .40 engine development. Radio technology led to my return to school for electronics
