The Tip is 'Before You Buy' Made in America Secrets tries to send you to internet stores that sell the Made In USA products you searched for. We try to link you directly to only Made In USA products, however sometimes this does not happen. When you click our banner / link ads the store we link you to may show you products that are imported alongside those that are Made In USA. We all know most retailers sell products that are made and come from all over the world including the USA. Therefore, our tip is look at the details before you buy the product. This is true for both brick and mortar stores and internet retailers. Any Made in America store that represents selling only Made in USA products can be believed but check them anyway. They will appreciate your help. Here is a great example of a very reputable Made in America Store. Our site is similar to a few others that I call "Indexers". These sites offer lists like an index. These indexes relate companies to the products they sell. There are a few, like this site, that provide an index of Made in America companies and their products. You can use the indexes (like I have done at times) to find a particular product and the companies that make it. Our site has many features like our buy tips that are unique and valuable. We add buying tips regularly so don't forget to check them out, as they will help you find and buy great Made In America products. Some of these sites are a good resource if you are looking for the manufacturer of a specific product. However you should first check their accuracy because some are not maintained as well as others. Some allow inaccurate and inappropriate ads, others like Made In America Secrets maintain the accuracy of their indexes and do not allow inappropriate advertisements. We continually try to improve our links and we solicit your help and ideas to make our site even better. You can contact us by email, mail, or phone and we will try our very best to respond promptly. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Moores Farm Toys The making of a farm toy manufacturer began in 1957 when I was born to a farm equipment dealer. Who sold Allis-Chalmers, Massy Ferguson, Deutz, and then Kubota. In 1974 when my first child was born, I started collecting farm toys, not knowing where it would lead to in the future. I attended my first toy show in 1981 at Lafayette, Indiana. It was at this time I knew I was hooked on toys. I started by customizing tractors and combines to make them more realistic. It was at this time I started to sell them at local toy shows. I knew then there was no turning back. The bug had bitten! My first customizing was a Massy Ferguson 760 combine which was followed by many more. I soon learned the demand was much greater than I had ever anticipated. I also learned Scratch building was a lot of work and very time consuming. It was at this time I decided the pieces could be made in larger volume if I had a spin casting machine, so in 1994 with a spin casting machine in hand I set up shop in Dad's barn. I started making patterns and molds to cast a header wagon followed by the tandem rake hitch. By 1995 the demand was so great that I needed to hire my first full time employee. Six months later I hired the second fulltime and two part time employees. Things were going very well. On March 4th 1998 a fire totally destroyed the barn we were in. The next day we started getting things back together and moved into the building where we are today. Four months later we cast our first items in the new location and were up and running again! In 1999 we purchased our own plastic injection molding equipment from Hurley Barn Yard Toys of Wynette, Illinois. That gave us a line of plastic toys and accessories. We have moved into the 21st Century with the addition of our own Web Site. This features over one thousand model implements, and a full line of parts to customize your own toys. Moore's Farm Toys models, kits, and parts are sold in our retail store in Dresden Ohio, as well as over the web site and at many National Toy Shows. We also sell Wholesale to other Toy Dealers in the USA, Canada, and also overseas. We are proud to tell you that all Moore's Farm Toys products are 100% American made. |
