Dwyer Mast

Post by Jeff D »

I had my first experience with Dwyer last week - what a great organization. I am restoring a non-CD and needed some parts - they had exactly what I needed and were easy to work with. I remember reading some concern on this forum regarding the viability of Dwyer once they became part of Zim. Have no fear - I drove down and picked up my parts and was given a tour of their site - seems to be a pretty vibrant place, with 100's of mast extrusions and a stockroom filled with parts.

That is fantastic news! I picked up a new boom extrusion the week before their move and was a bit concerned about their future under new management. It sounds like this move may well have been an improvement to an already solid company. The old owners were, well, old, as were most of their staff. It is great to know that this resource is still available, Steve.

I was up there a year or so ago when they told me about the selling the business. He told me they were good folks and would continue the business.

i exchanged emails with new owners, they seemed responsive and likely to invest. all goodness.
