Sleep in Heavenly Peace is 100% volunteer-driven and donationdriven. MWFA is inviting the fastener industry to donate to cover the cost of building beds and come help us build the beds on August 21st. Industry personnel, families, and friends, come out and enjoy the socialization while helping children in need. No special skills needed to assist, as there’s something for everyone! A Safeguards for Buying Import or Domestic Manufactured Fasteners Seminar, guiding fastener personnel with a checklist of potential pitfalls and a list of questions to identify and ask prior to ordering special parts will be held on August 23rd from 9:30-12:00 prior to the opening of the show. This seminar focuses on avoiding costly mistakes in product error. The class will be taught by Richard Pease, who before owning his own company R.K. Precision Products, worked for domestic cold header manufacturers, and various Industrial Fastener Distributors.
