All Roads Lead to Jet Edge Waterjet Systems...Normally

Normally all roads lead to Jet Edge, but a doozy of a storm last night knocked down a main power transmission line that crossed every highway into St. Michael, Minnesota from the south, causing the closure of every highway to our factory from the south.  Fortunately, I-94 remained opened so those of us who live to the south of Jet Edge were able to get to work supporting our water jet systems customers through some creative navigating.

Jet Edge was spared from the storm's wrath, but many of our neighbors could be without power for days.  We're grateful that we weathered the storm, and we're especially thankful to the first responders and power company crews who are putting in a very long day today.

We tip our hat to the Wright County Sheriff's Department and Highway Department, as well as the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department and Highway Department, City of St. Michael, Xcel Energy®, Wright-Hennepin Electric and everyone else who is working hard today to clean up after the storm. Thank you!

WATERJETS AND ENTREPRENEURS - Jet Edge Hosts Future Business Leaders

Today Jet Edge had the opportunity to open our doors to some of tomorrow's business leaders.  We had a group of nine high school students in from the Wright County Technical Center's CEO program, Creating Entrepreneurial Opportunities.

These students are part of an exciting new program that takes them out of the classroom and into local businesses so they can learn what it takes to become a successful entrepreneur. As part of the year-long class, each student starts up their own business and learns hands-on from their own successes and failures.

During their visit to Jet Edge, the students learned how waterjet technology is used to create many of the products they use every day, from food products to auto parts.  They also had the opportunity to see a live water jet cutting demonstration in our test lab.

It's always fun to work with young people who are excited about their future.  We hope they all start successful businesses right here in Wright County!
