Thanks, Mike, for sharing your Flex tour experiences!!

Knowing how many plants in the USA are so guarded
with their "intellectual property"...
It's amazing that you were even allowed a camera in the building.

Glad you were though.

See if you can tour a few Mercedes assembly plants...
I really enjoyed touring a few of them when I was over there.

Thanks Dave! It sure was!

Very cool Mike, looks like it was an awesome day for you!

Thanks Tad! It sure was!

wow, very cool! can't wait to see what future polisher(s) they come out with, and one think i like is there QC is very high (better than Rupes IME). thanks for sharing...

I am with you! I cant wait to see what is released at SEMA!

IMO, these Flex polishers are made like tanks.

Thank you for taking us along on the tour.

I'm not at all surprised to see ladies on the assembly line. There was a piece I read a few years back regarding Ducati's assembly plant. One thing the director mentioned was that they favored women to men on engine assembly - that ladies tend to be more cautious/less aggressive, therefore less mistakes and more consistent with their work.

No problem!

Hmmm. Didn't know that!

That is awesome mike! Thanks for taking the time to share your trip with us looks like it was worth the trip for sure!

Thanks Bob!

I was a bit surprised as well that I could take pictures inside the facility.

I plan on touring BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche as well as more detailing companies such as Sonax. Hopefully I can.

Thanks for sharing the tour. Nice to know the craftsmanship that goes into the Flex.

I plan on touring BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche as well as more detailing companies such as Sonax. Hopefully I can.

I would love to tour Porsche, they truly do create some incredible works of art. Some of which we rarely see here in the US. Here's one of those works of art that Corey and I had the pleasure of working on when we went to Turkey...(Hope you don't mind me sharing them here in your thread Mike). BTW the valve stem covers on this car were sterling silver, how cool is that!

[Bunky]

Nice tour pics !!

[BobbyG]

What a very kool thread to go through. The photos and writeup are so interesting and it's always nice to see how and where tools are manufactured...

Thank you Mike!
