We can't thank Lorraine Palmer from HFO Trident enough, for inviting the American Precision Museum to be a part of their open house last week. What a great opportunity for us to showcase the museum's history as the birthplace of precision manufacturing to the southern stretches of the Precision Valley. Thank you Lorraine Palmer!

Thank you to Leif Johnson of Norwich Technologies for giving us a tour and a lesson about the new energy storage that Norwich Technologies is developing and testing right here in Windsor, VT. The staff of the American Precision Museum took a field trip recently thanks to Joel Stettenheim making this connection for us. We learned a lot!

We have the machines! In fact, the American Precision Museum has so many historic machines that we have to store some of them offsite. We took inventory of them recently with our Executive Director, Steven Dalessio and our Collections Technician, John Alexander. Shown here are a very old universal grinder and a very large Vanhorn planer. Come see our collection of historic machines at the American Precision Museum in Windsor, VT.

Happy Fourth of July from all of us at the American Precision Museum! Today, we celebrate the craftsmanship and innovation that makes our country great. From the first machines made in the USA to the precision tools that built our nation, we're proud to be part of this tradition. Cheers to American-made excellence! Made in the USA pictures are from artifacts in the collection. Which was difficult to find because most of our machines simply state the city they were made in. The USA part was assumed.
