Become a more informed Made in America shopper by reading our buying tips
The Tip is 'Don't procrastinate'

For years I've been buying ink jet cartridges from a big box office supply store. These cartridges were made overseas and labeled with the well-known brand of a large American printer company.

One I remembered a local store that advertised quality cartridges. I had traveled by this local store hundreds of times but never stopped. This time I stopped at the local store. To my surprise I discovered that they carried the cartridge I needed and it was a Made in USA cartridge. Made in Chicago, to be precise, and it was half the price of the imported ones I had been buying for years. The quality is exceptional and they last longer too. Who knew?

After that experience, I make a point to stop at every store I can. By doing so, I've been finding more and more Made in America products. Occasionally the clerks don't know the country of origin; this can be discouraging but finding the origin information yourself isn't difficult I've come to realize.

Believe it not, there are actually a number of computers made in the US including laptops made in the USA.

When the label is not visibly displayed I use the other Made in America buying tips to help me find Made in US. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. If enough people are asking for Made in America products stores will begin to carry them.

Back in the late 1950s, George Gilman opened a machine shop in Janesville, Wisconsin. Like most machine shops back then, Janesville Tool and Manufacturing did a wide variety of general machining. But George was not only a good machinist, he was a talented inventor too. He often created special tooling and even special machines to make jobs faster, easier, and more profitable. Out of necessity, George built the first JT&M assembly press. It was a compact manual lever press that looked and worked like today's ILP-500.

George Gilman was a perfectionist. He designed and built his assembly press to be extremely precise. But its real beauty was its versatility. George soon found that the lever press could be quickly adapted to many jobs around the shop.

Now and then customers and friends stopped by and saw George's press. They were so impressed with George's press they often tried to buy it. Soon George was building presses and die sets for sale. Word-of-mouth advertising spread the reputation of the press far and wide. After a while, George was so busy making lever presses, he discontinued his general machining business.

Twenty years later, the Roach family bought the company. Along with moving to larger quarters in a neighboring town, they expanded the number of manual presses to four and added several die sets to the line. In 1989, they added four pneumatic-powered presses to the line, and the rest is history.

Today, the popularity of Janesville Tool and Manufacturing presses is greater than ever. We still adhere to the same strict standards of quality established by George Gilman. Our manufacturer-direct pricing and 24-hour shipping policies make our presses truly affordable and accessible.
