Hi,I never worked for W&S, but am a big fan of the old time machine builders, especially lathe builders. I start my engineering career in the south western part of the state with The Monarch Machine Tool Company back in '87, and worked there till '97. That plant was hugh, and I learn that as machine tool factories go, the Sidney plant was about as big as one would find. The posts from you Swasy folks sure makes me believe that W&S was an order of magatude larger.
Question - has a history of Warner & Swasey ever been published? And if one hasn't been written, then some alumni should get busy while there are still enough old timers left to relate all the neat stories that can make a great company come alive.
Thanks for all the great posts!
