Honda Motor Company: 2013

Well, friends, despite the lack of posts, we have indeed, as always, been busy. Recently we had the pleasure of working with Honda of America in creating and pouring urethane molds for their new manufacturing and testing facility in  Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. The urethane molds we made, are being used to cast concrete bumps and European cobble replicas for various testing procedures. As I type this, concrete is being poured and then set into the specially prepared sections of the facility. The following photos document the making of masters to the final concrete slabs made from the molds. Enjoy!

It was super cool to have had the opportunity to work with such a large company, and the people we interacted with in regards to the job, especially their designer, Jon, were amazingly helpful and super down to earth.

Thanks for stopping by, The TORK Crew
