Derek Hampton Email & Phone Number

Looking back I would have never imagined that I used to be a milk man!This job soon became mundane and left wanting more. I found myself looking for something that was a much bigger challenge with room for growth. It just so happened that my Father owned a Tool and die shop. I've always enjoyed working with my hands and building things so I inquired about serving an apprenticeship with his company. He said yes and the rest is History.As of today, I have enjoyed over 30 years in many facets of the metal forming and stamping industry up to and including: wire electrical discharge machine, computer numerical control programming, tool design using Solidworks and Inventor, trouble shooting and debug of new tools, product development, project management and production management.Continually finding challenging tasks withing each field has created a well versed individual. Learning every day and building the knowledge and skill sets needed to succeed will always be cherished. In a nut shell I enjoy using all the obtained manufacturing knowledge in a team environment to help remedy and solve manufacturing problems. Learning, growing, and helping others along the way while cherishing everything learned is one my greatest achievements. I have placed a fantastic video showing a little tidbit of the newer generation doing what I love! Thank You,-Derek Hampton "Not all knowledge comes from college, but skill?
