About The Creator
"As I was approaching the age of 50, I started brainstorming ideas to make my job a little easier and more time efficient. After a lot of ideas going through my head, I had a vision! It was a Friday after Thanksgiving. I was sitting in the house with my son - who was home on college break - and got an idea. I asked him to go out to the shop with me.
We started cutting plywood, building, and shaping. Then we made a false wall to put it in. Through a lot of trial and error, a prototype was welded up and installed in one of my barns. Improvements have been made since, but that same prototype is still operable and used daily."
