Tim Auman began working for his father’s machinery business every weekend while he was in high school. Once he graduated, he spent his entire days working at Auman Machinery, and studied during the nights in hopes to receive his machinist’s papers.
Auman’s dad stated the business in 1949 in a small garage, and has since been moved into a large industrial building.
Now, the CEO of the company, Auman couldn’t be happier about the record sales that the company had in 2011, despite the drop in economy.
“ In 2009 sales sank by 50 percent, but starting in 2010 sales rebounded quickly,” Auman said. “Interestingly what we have seen is a new record for sales in 2011. This is certainly not what you read about or hear every day in the news.”

His only concerns for the business is that there are no longer many people getting educated for machinery, and they are having a hard time finding skilled- full time laborers.
