Precision Cutter & Tool, Lebanon, Missouri, celebrated its 25th anniversary on September 5th.

Hartwig’s Gary Hartwig presents a statue to Rob Baker.

The event included a luncheon, presentations and tours of the facility. Hartwig and Okuma helped with the event. The presentations included several local and state officials and representatives from Hartwig and Okuma.

A constant theme throughout the comments and presentations was the value of teamwork to Precision Cutter & Tool. “My employees are the key to this business. I must recognize every one of them because they are what makes this company run, and run smoothly. They are Precision Cutter & Tool,” stated Rob Baker, founder/owner and 45-year industry veteran.
