As part of the restructuring of Oliver Machinery, we sold our metal sawing product line to a new company, B & O Saws, Inc. I went with the new company as President & COO to get the new company started and well established. We built a new plant in Belding Michigan for the company. After B & O was up and running, I joined the Center for Simplified Strategic Planning, Inc., where I am today.

President and Chairman of Oliver Machinery Company. Oliver manufactured and sold wood working machinery and metal sawing machinery to much of the free world. We tooled most of the aluminum industry with sawing machinery and material handling machinery. We supplied circular sawing machines to the metals industries in many countries, including sawing machines to cut steel, titanium, aluminum, brass and copper alloys.
