Indeed, OESH and Casey’s handy dandy waterjet saw are featured this month in Manufacturing Net — the go-to publication for all things manufacturing. You can read the article directly on Manufacturing Net’s website here. I also transferred screen shots of the article below (click to enlarge the type).  

Many OESHers love, love, LOVE running in OESH! As the word gets around, we weren’t surprised when the major trade journal of running stores, Running Insight, asked to visit the factory and interview Casey. Writer Max Lockwood did a swell job, and you can read his effort on pages 15 and 16 of this July […]

Last weekend we took a quick jaunt to Arches National Park in Utah, near Grand Junction, Colorado, where we helped celebrate a friend’s wedding. We went for a run in the park.  Casey had a chance to put her feet up but couldn’t stop working on OESH. Here’s a picture she took of the new […]

Robin Hoffman, artist, well-known caricaturist, creator and star of the popular Charlottesville T.V. show, “A Day a Minute,” ventured over to the OESH factory for a visit.

Knowing how much hard work Pete and Bill put into this up to date treatise of running, I was excited to […]

Remarkable OESHer Becky Mitchell has just returned to the USA after a lovely, extensive family trip to Italy. The Mitchells loved Firenze. And so did Becky’s size 8 Classics: Perhaps less well-known is that Michelangelo’s David recently enjoyed a short break to visit America after his 500+ years in Florence, taking a brief holiday from […]

A new article about OESH for a fascinating trade magazine is coming your way in the next few weeks. We’ll have more on it when published, but the upshot is that this effort will highlight many of the remarkable engineering and equipment decisions that have made OESH hum.
