They say that time waits for no man — and they’re not wrong. Every year in January as we reflect on the changes we’ve seen in the last 12 months, we’re always amazed that once again we’re starting a new year. Yet when we really take a step back to reflect on everything that’s happened, we’re also excited to realize just how much progress we’ve made, how many goals we hit, and all the different ways we can define success in the time that’s passed. Looking back on 2021, here’s a highlight reel of our favorite moments from the year.
January
Right off the bat last year we launched our PM-1050 Universal Mobile Base. It was exciting to start the new year with a bang!
We were also thrilled to have two new team members join the company, expanding our Sales and Finance teams.
February
During the second month of the year, we launched our second product of the year. The Centipede Solid Tabletop is the perfect way to top off any size Centipede, and pairs nicely with our original Tabletop, which features dog holes.
May
The first of two positive moments in May was the addition of our Product Engineer to the team. He has a great sense of humor and has done some incredible work on our upcoming products.
We also opened a new office in North Carolina! This is a very exciting expansion that allows us to meet with more vendors and buyers and expand our footprint in the US.
June
The month of June saw the launch of our PM-2550 Omnidirectional Mobile Base, which is our second mobile base with the ability to move in 360-degree circles. It’s hard to beat that flexibility in a small shop! Plus, we added several new Centipede accessories to our lineup to streamline your workflow, including bench dogs and panel supports.
July
After several months of virtual trade shows, we finally attended our first trade show in person in July. AWFS was lots of fun, and our sales reps who attended were glad to make connections with buyers face-to-face.
We also expanded the team by two by hiring a new Inbound Logistics Coordinator and Customer Service Representative.
August
One of the best parts of August was being able to launch our 3.25hp Soft-Start Router Motor. Our product team had been working hard making this the most powerful router motor on the market, so it was exciting to finally release it to the public. 
August was also a stellar month of growth. We hired three new employees — Jonathan, John, and Madison — to help us out in our Customer Service and IT departments.
September
We were thrilled to bring on Frank, our new CFO, in the middle of September. His help was critical to our 2022 planning, and we’re excited to see how he helps us continue to grow this year!
October
What was our exciting news for October? If you guessed a new employee — you’re right! We were delighted to bring on our new Marketing Communications Manager at the end of the month. She’s already made a difference in the team!
November
In November, we joined TikTok! We’ve been able to meet new people and try out new social media ideas — and we’re loving it. If you’re on TikTok, come follow us!
By the numbers:
New employees: 10
New products: 6
