And so that's parts of the administration, that's private equity, that's venture capital, that's bankers, that's others.

But anyone who's really interested in driving American manufacturing forward and making us globally competitive again, we work with.

And we're very excited about our growth.

Donald Trump Jr.

is a partner at 1789 Capital, which is now one of the key investors in this particular round.

Yeah, so what that money is allowing us to do is finish the build-out of Vulcan 1, where I am today, to build out Vulcan 2, which is up in Newburyport, Massachusetts.

So both factory locations are outside of Boston, and then we are actively building out a third factory location that we'll be starting production in July of this year.

If you think about the product delivery in terms of global supply chain, there's not much we can do about where metal atoms are deposited in the world, but they're in circulation all over.
