Our Story
My grandfather Charles, my grandfather Bruce, and my father Bruce Jr. shaped me in significant ways, not just during my childhood years but all throughout my life.
These three men are the foundation upon which I was built For all of my adult life, I’ve thought it was just normal to know how to weld, solder, program computers, build and fabricate anything I want (from electric vehicles to airplanes now) and to start any business that struck my fancy. I certainly don’t know everything, but I was taught how to learn, so I’ve learned everything I ever needed to know to do what I wanted to do.


INCREASE YOUR FOCUS
Many people find they are more productive if they have something to quietly keep their hands busy while they are focusing. Spinning a top provides both the tactile engagement as well as an ongoing visual stimulation that can result in a calmer, more creative and more productive day.
CONNECTION
A modern connection to an ancient practice: Archaeologists have examples of spinning tops going back to 4,000 B.C. which were made from clay. That same desire that’s lasted for more than 6,000 years can be satisfied today, not with clay or wood toys, but with precision engineered and produced works of art that are precisely made to within less than the thickness of a human hair.


UNIQUELY CRAFTED GIFT IDEAS

CHALLENGING & MEASURABLE
