Established in 1989, founder and owner Mike Gaishin created Gaishin Manufacturing to fulfill the need for quickly produced prototype parts. Working as an engineer and with his family's background in tool-and-die, he took this machining experience and began prototyping parts to test his designs. Soon after, Gaishin Manufacturing was born consisting of a Bridgeport mill and a South Bend lathe in a small space behind a bowling alley. As this need for quick, quality machined parts developed, he began working on his business full time. Through innovation and technology Gaishin Manufacturing has grown exponentially into a full service supplier of precision quality products. Today with the core philosophy to provide the best value through exceptional quality, superior service, and continuous improvement, Gaishin Manufacturing has become a premier supplier of quality products in many of today's markets.
