                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Company as of June 30, 2005 (unaudited) and December 31,2004
(audited) and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the
indicated periods.

The Company uses estimated gross profit rates to determine the cost of goods
sold during interim periods on a portion of its operations. Actual results could
differ from those estimates and will be adjusted, as necessary, following the
Company's annual physical inventory in the fourth quarter.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. The results of operations for the three and six-month period ending June 30,
2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

3. The Company extends credit on the basis of terms that are customary within
our markets to various companies doing business primarily in the automotive
industry. The Company has a concentration of credit risk primarily within the
automotive industry and in the Midwestern United States.

4. The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation, including
environmental claims and contract disputes, in the normal course of business.
While it is not possible at this time to establish the ultimate amount of
liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including those related to
legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the aggregate amount of any
such liabilities, for which provision has not been made, will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

         The combination of higher raw material costs, increases in
administrative expenses and generally lower volumes adversely impacted our
results for the current quarter and for the year to date.

         Within the fastener segment, revenues increased less than 1%, from
$8,391,416 in the second quarter of 2004 to $8,444,808 in the second quarter of
2005. However, that improvement reflects the sale of product with higher unit
prices, which partially offset a decline in units sold. It also includes the
recovery of a portion of higher raw material costs that were incurred in the
second quarter of 2005. Second quarter revenues, excluding the recovery of raw
material price increases, were 2.9% lower than in the second quarter of 2004.
Gross margins declined approximately $698,000 compared to the second quarter of
2004. A change in product mix that favored product with higher material content
caused material costs to increase approximately $200,000 compared to the second
quarter of 2004. Material prices remained much higher than during the second
quarter of 2004 and market conditions were such that we had to absorb
approximately $67,000 of the increase in material prices. Other factors that
adversely impacted margins during the second quarter included an increase in
expenditures for perishable tooling of $159,000 and a $40,000 increase in
repairs and maintenance expense. These increases were more a result of timing as
the year to date change in these items is not significant. In addition, outside
processing costs increased by $127,000 in connection with the introduction of
new parts. The balance of the decline in gross margin is primarily the result of
lower volume.

         For the first six months, fastener segment revenues increased by less
than 1%. That change includes the pass through of a portion of higher costs for
raw materials. Excluding the material cost recovery, net sales declined by
approximately 3.9% in the current year. Gross margins for the first six months
of 2005 declined $1,084,000 compared to the first half of 2004. Higher material
costs account for $871,000 of this change. Factors affecting material costs
include unrecovered material cost increases of $370,000, increases in outside
processing (related to a change in product mix) of $219,000, and higher material
content, related to a change in product mix, of approximately $282,000. The
remainder of the change in gross margin was primarily a factor of lower unit
volumes.

         Revenues within the assembly equipment segment declined $226,556, or
12.3%, in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004, as
demand for our products in this segment continues to show weakness. Gross
margins for this segment declined approximately $115,000, almost entirely due to
the reduction in volumes. For the first six months, revenues in this segment
declined approximately $399,000, or 10.6%, compared to the first six months of
2004. Although we were able to reduce elements of manufacturing costs consistent
with this decline in activity, the decline in volume resulted in a reduction of
first half gross margins of $149,000 when comparing 2005 to 2004.

         Selling and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2005 were
approximately $23,000 higher than during the second quarter of 2004. Major
factors contributing to this change include increases in professional services
of $95,000 primarily related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002,
and  legal fees of $34,000 in connection with ongoing litigation and other
matters. These increases were partially offset by a reduction of $78,000 in
profit sharing expense and smaller, net reductions in a variety of other
expenses. On a year to date basis, selling and administrative expenses increased
$176,000 compared to the first six months of 2004. Factors contributing to this
increase include $234,000, primarily related to Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
compliance; $120,000 in legal fees incurred in connection with ongoing
litigation and other matters; and $44,000 in higher salaries and wages. These
higher costs were partially offset by reductions in profit sharing expense of
$141,000; a $57,000 reduction in the Michigan single business tax and lower
depreciation of $30,000.

         Working capital at June 30, 2005 amounted to $14.6 million, a decline
of $.58 million from the beginning of the year. Inventory balances have declined
$.4 million this year. As concerns about the availability of raw materials
eased, we have reduced the levels of raw material in stock. Levels of work in
process and finished goods are also lower, as production levels have been
reduced in response to weaker demand. Holdings in cash and cash equivalents
amounted to $5.5 million at the end of the second quarter, a year to date
decline of $.8 million. Accounts receivable balances have increased by $1.6
million this year. Collections typically lag shipments by several weeks, and the
June 30 balance reflects the fact that second quarter sales were more heavily
concentrated in the latter part of the quarter and were higher than those of the
fourth quarter of 2004. Current liabilities are $.9 million higher than at the
beginning of the year, primarily due to an increase of $.7 million in accounts
payable. $.2 million of the increase in payables relates to building
improvements while the remainder is caused by the generally higher level of
activity at June 30 compared to December 31.

         The Company has a $1.0 million line of credit, which expires May 31,
2006. This line of credit remains unused. Management believes that current cash,
cash equivalents, operating cash flow and the available line of credit will
provide adequate working capital for the foreseeable future.

         This has been a very difficult year. Demand for our products continues
to be weak. Many of our customers are subject to foreign competition and have
responded by turning to foreign sources for product or by outsourcing their
operations to lower cost countries. As a result, the available market for our
products is reduced and competition for available market share increases. Past
efforts to solicit profitable business from both new and existing customers have
not been as successful as we expected. In July, we implemented changes to
strengthen our sales efforts and we believe this will yield positive results in
the future. While raw material costs have begun to recede to a limited extent,
we expect that the market will dictate that these savings be passed on to our
customers. As volumes have fallen, it has become increasingly difficult to make
matching, incremental changes in our operating levels. We will continue to make
adjustments to our staffing levels in response to changing market conditions,
subject to limitations that would affect our ability to adequately meet
customer's service expectations. Costs associated with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance
declined somewhat more than expected during the second quarter as the compliance
deadline was extended, but we still expect to incur significant costs related to
compliance in the third quarter. We also expect legal expenses will continue to
be higher than usual during the coming months. Increasing revenue and
controlling costs continue to be critical to our future success, and we remain
focused on making progress in both of these critical areas.

The foregoing discussion is only intended to provide highlights of operations
for the periods covered. Additional information is contained in our Form 10-Q,
which has been filed with the SEC and is available to shareholders upon request
from the Company, or via the internet through the SEC's EDGAR database. This
discussion contains certain "forward-looking statements" which are inherently
subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual events to differ
materially from those discussed herein. Factors which may cause such differences
in events include, among other things, our ability to maintain our relationships
with our significant customers; increased global competition; increases in the
prices of, or limitations on the availability of, our primary raw materials; or
a downturn in the automotive industry, upon which we rely for sales revenue, and
which is cyclical and dependent on, among other things, consumer spending,
international economic conditions and regulations and policies regarding
international trade. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or
predict. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publish revised
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date
hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

         (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any
changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term
is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the
fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
