After 30 years of business, it becomes obvious that there are certain unofficial laws that extend beyond what Murphy taught us. I call them “Bob’s Laws of Business”. In this newsletter, I will explain “Bob’s Law: Old Business Guys Rule” We’ve all seen the funny T-Shirt...
Everyone needs a silent partner. He's your ace in the hole -- the guy who is there to help out when you have an urgent need, or just to lend a hand when asked. The guy who after helping, stays silent, takes none of the...

Every month, I will introduce you to one of “Bob’s Laws of Business,” the unofficial laws that extend well beyond everything Murphy taught us. This month, I will explain the "law": "Butts don’t Learn Anything from Chairs." In my 30 years in business, I've had the...
At California Quality Plastics, much of the work we do is creation of custom products. In fact, many of our production runs aren’t "production" runs at all. If you make one item, and only make it once, can you really call it a "production" run? ...
The dive boat arrives at its destination and drifts slowly over a beautiful coral reef. What if you could enjoy the coral reef up close, without having to get wet? Our customer, Harold Conyers, wanted to provide just that experience for his customers. Harold asked us...
Every one of our customers comes to us because they want one thing, and one thing only -- their product: constructed correctly, delivered on time, for the promised price. This makes sense. But we do so much more than that. Step into our shop, and you...
After 30 years in business, I've learned that there are unofficial "laws" that extend beyond what Murphy taught us. I call them “Bob’s Laws of Business.” In this newsletter, I will explain “Bob’s Law of Stubbornness.” You have a great idea. Perhaps it’s a new product...
“Excuse me, you want us to do what for you?“ It’s not every day that a customer wants a giant polycarbonate dome top custom built for his classic, 1963 Plymouth Fury. As it turns out, our customer Andy Wick is no ordinary guy. Andy is...
