EXHIBIT 31.1


                                   CERTIFICATE


I, Thomas H. Quinn, certify that:

1.     I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of Kinetek, Inc.;

2.     Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
       statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary
       to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which
       such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period
       covered by this report;

3.     Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
       information included in this report, fairly present in all material
       respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
       of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.     The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
       establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
       defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
       registrant and have:

       a)   designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
            disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
            supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
            registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known
            to us by others within those entities, particularly during the
            period in which this report is being prepared;

       b)   evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
            controls and procedures and presented in this report our
            conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and
            procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report and
            based on such evaluation; and

       c)   disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
            control over financial reporting that occurred during the
            registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's last
            fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
            materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
            the registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.     The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
       on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
       reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of
       registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
       functions):

       a)   all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design
            or operation of internal controls over financial reporting which
            are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability
            to record, process, summarize and report financial information;
            and

       b)   any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
            other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
            internal controls over financial reporting.
