The Starrett episode, which is part of the Season 2 “Made in the USA” podcast series, first aired on March 7th this year, and ranked first as the most listened to podcast of the series during its first week. This podcast can be heard anytime by visiting www.starrett.com/mia.

“We are proud to have been selected by Modern Machine Shop for an episode in this important podcast series, and we enjoyed having their editors visit our global headquarters in Athol, Massachusetts for interviews and tours,” said Douglas A. Starrett, President and CEO, The L.S. Starrett Company. “The hallmark of Starrett quality and innovation is rooted in America –- over 140 years later after our founding in 1880, we still maintain our commitment to skilled, dedicated American workers and making tools in the United States of America, where the vast majority of Starrett tools are still manufactured,” commented Mr. Starrett. Starrett today is the only company making a full line of precision measuring tools in the United States of America.
