B. W. Bowmar, Co. was founded in Escalante by Bill Bowmar
in 1976. Bill began his machine shop career at the age of 16 when he wanted a gasoline engine for his model plane.
Instead of buying him an engine, Bill's father bought him a lathe and drill press and helped him to make his own engines.
Bill continued building his experience as a machinist until the day he died at
the age 80. Bill's son, Paul, grew up in the machine shop and is
now the owner and operator of B.W. Bowmar, Co.
