About

The Dawson Machine Craft Shop
The home of Dawson Machine Craft

I started crafting precision spinning tops in January of 2014 on a small Southbend metal lathe and fell in love with machining.

In 2016 I purchased a Mazak CNC Lathe and began machining a larger variety of products to include flashlights as a collaboration with Mitch Lum under the Laulima Metal Craft brand and as of December 2023, under the Dawson Machine Craft brand. 

I personally machine, finish, and assemble all flashlights in my Missouri shop with pocket clips and light engines built by Mitch in Oregon.

I personally craft all other machined items bearing my name.

If an issue should ever arise with anything I've created, please reach out and I'll be glad to help.

Please contact me at [email protected] for any questions.
