ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


Sales. The Company's sales in the first quarter of 1997 increased $1,540,352 or
19.2% compared to the first quarter of 1996.  This increase is due mainly to
sales from the Precision Components and Engineered Solutions divisions
increasing significantly over the corresponding quarter of 1996.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales decreased by 0.7% of
sales compared to the first quarter of 1996.  This is due to the effect of
spreading fixed overhead over higher production levels.

Selling, General & Administrative. Selling, general and administrative costs
increased by $47,202 or 7.7% for the first quarter of 1997 compared to the
first quarter of 1996.  This is due to higher travel and professional expense.

Interest. Interest expense increased by $2,250 or 1.1% for the first quarter of
1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996 due to higher interest rates offset
by lower borrowing levels.  Interest rates for the Company were reduced by the
Company's bank effective March 27, 1997. (Reference the Company's 1996 Annual
Report)

Liquidity and Capital Expenditures.  Working capital as of March 31, 1997 has
increased by $289,000 since December 31, 1996.  Capital expenditures of
$209,396 has been funded out of operating activities.

Management believes that the funds generated from operations and its credit
facilities will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements for 1997.
