General Info
On July 24, 2012 Mechanical Metal Finishing completed 55 years of business in Gardena. The company spent its first twenty years on the corner of 178th and Western from 1957 to 1977.The Namans are the surviving generation from a company started by three great men: Solomon Naman, our father, Fred Bowyer, and Karl Seleen. Teri, brother and sister, are the last generation. They feel that investing in modern equipment and being competitive with cell manufacturing will allow the next generation of management to be successful in a declining market. Mechanical Metal Finishing is the best at offering deburring services. One can visit its website (deburr.com) and see the electronic brochure with complete facility guide. The future can be good even as industry moves from needing our services. Future management will seek other opportunities and meet what new requirements come our way. Looking back 55 years brings memories of our childhood. Although Sol, Chuck and Teri, also known as Sister, were 15, 14, & 11 in 1957, we grew up in the industry. We would take trips with our father every Sunday night from 1950 to 1957. We three Naman Brats would drive with our mother, Connie and Dad to Woods Metal Finishing. Much of the scenery traveling from Pico Rivera to Los Angeles has changed. We would either travel down Slauson Ave. The old Bethlehem Steel facility would be glowing . Yellow hot ingots of steel. Going down Washington Blvd. we would pass the smelly feed lots and the huge pit in the ground that have since been eliminated. There was a large arrow the size of a telephone pole and a huge doughnut on top of a doughnut shop. When we arrived at Florence, we would see our current logo on top of Woods Metal Finishing. This land mark has been on the corner of Broadway and Redondo Beach since 1977. It was moved from Florence Ave. Another land mark on Florence Ave. was the Goodyear Blimp Hanger. The two men turning a tumbling barrel is a focal point for people. We say we are the red brick building with the two men turning a barrel. People usually remember this land mark. Maybe your grown children may remember this land mark.
