james' design philosophy
"I love design that feels strong, rugged, and quality. Seeing products from previous generations when things lasted forever and could be repaired by hand fill me with a passion to create iconic, enduring, and functional posessions in a sustainable manner that will stay with people until they can hand them down to the next generation. I love the feeling of maintaining something and the smells of oils and feeling of good machined parts with perfect tolerances. Some of the simple pleasures of a long lasting design."
