Otto Clausing also had a small workshop in the "garage" behind his house in which he used to manufacture a small twin-wheel grinder advertised as the "Tool Dresser" - a machine first made in 1938. In 1943, Otto moved to Willard Street and shortly afterwards set up machine tools in the building behind the house with Ralph Williams coming from the main factory to be the foreman. I (Don Clausing) worked there during the summers of 1945 and 1946 with both Bonnie and Dale - who were older, and much more productive than I was ...
Otto continued this business with the grinders being sold through the Clausing Manufacturing Company, and I believe that this arrangement continued under Atlas. In the Fall of 1952 Keith Nelson transferred from Atlas-Clausing to work for Otto. See: Clausing History
