With a BS in Industrial Technology, a near minor in robotics, and continuing education in programming I was proud to have worked for a company that put its money where its mouth is. I left Basic in 1995 to pursue other career options and still am impressed at the caliber of personnel guided by the ever quality/customer oriented service that John Goodrum has instilled and intend to reflect that experience in my own personnal business and the new career I am studying for. You can't go wrong with Basic Carbide.
