G. Thorndike
Okay, first things first.  Everyone wants to know where we came up with this name.  G. Thorndike is an old family name is our stock answer.  When we know you better, we will tell you the WHOLE STORY.
We have been in the Woodworking Industry for longer than a bunch of you have been alive.  Take a look at my picture.  I look old, right?  Well, I have been working with wood since I was young so I know alot about it.  I have been selling Woodworking Equipment here in Southern California for about 15 years and I have spent about 25 years in the production side.  I started back in the ice age washing log decks in Washington state and took up millwrighting in California and Oregon for 15 years.  (For you youngsters, a millwright is someone who fixes whatever breaks and replaces what can't be fixed.)  We came to Southern California about 28 years ago and opened a business millwrighting which didn't work out though we worked hard, dang economy!  We got into the Custom Milling business, so we understand the pressures of getting the wood in, milled and out the door to the customers.  We represent Leadermac Moulders and Canteck Machinery in Southern California as well as other suppliers including Newman Whitney, Fruilmac, Danbo and Dantherm as well as carrying a line of good used machinery that we find on our travels.
