Our Founders' Vision and Growth

Our Founders'
Vision and Growth

Dennis Lehmann and Bill Plank were the original founders of Craftmaster. They started this company to provide their customers with a high quality die for a fair price. 10 or so years later the company was growing in need of much more space, so they built a 40’ x 80’ building and acquired some of the best equipment for our industry.
