Default Steve on Ingrid Good Intentions



..Seems like a
good town/community to support. Even though NFM went to China.


That is true. Robert is an experienced Foundaryman and has a modest foundry
and machine shop on site. (nice family on site as well).

It is my understanding he is in China doing most of the QA while his items
are being produced. In some instances, he leave some machining to be done in
his own modern shop.

I would prefer that it all be done here but then WE couldn't afford his
items. Similar to the many day-to-day items that come from China.

I'm old enough to remember when the Japanese items were considered "Cheap
knock-offs" and we should only purchase Made in USA or Union Label, etc. Now
look who is setting the standard for product quality.
