The Company uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock options. Had
compensation cost for the Company's employee stock option plans been determined
based on the fair value at the grant dates of awards under these plans
consistent with the methodology prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net
income (loss) would have been adjusted to reflect the following pro forma

Comprehensive Income (Loss): Comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net
income (loss)for the three and nine month periods ended October 2, 2004 and
September 27, 2003 since the valuation used in connection with determining the
amount of the change in the minimum pension liability is determined at the end
of the year.

Income Taxes: The income tax benefit reflects in the third quarter of 2004 the
determination of the income tax receivable of $331,154. Income taxes for the
three and nine month periods ended October 2, 2004 also vary from those amounts
that would be expected using statutory rates, due to the utilization of net
operating loss carry forwards.

Treasury Stock: On October 11, 2002, the Company terminated its Employee Stock
Ownership Plan and distributed the accounts of all participants in the form of
shares of the Company. The fractional share portion of each account was paid in
cash by the Company. The fractional shares totaling 235 shares were transferred
back to the Company as treasury stock in 2003.

New Accounting Standards: In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 132(revised 2003), "Employers Disclosures about
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits, an


<PAGE>

amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 and 106" (FAS 132 revised 2003). FAS 132
(revised 2003) requires disclosures about defined benefit pension plans' and
other postretirement benefit plans' assets, obligations, cash flows and net
cost, and retains a number of disclosures required by SFAS No. 132, "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits." The Company
adopted the annual disclosure provisions for the fiscal year ended January 3,
2004. The Company adopted the interim disclosure provisions effective in the
first quarter 2004 as provided in Note C.

(1) The Company's primary lender provides financing in the form of term loans
and a revolving line of credit limited to an amount determined by a formula
based on percentages of the Company's receivables and inventory. The interest
rates are based on the index rate (30 day dealer placed commercial paper) plus
3.75% (5.52% at October 2, 2004)

<PAGE>
for the revolving credit line and the index rate plus 4% (5.77% at October 2,
2004) for the term loans. On January 15, 2004, the lender amended the terms of
the financing arrangement by increasing the availability on the Company's
revolving line of credit by $400,000 and changing the fixed charge coverage
ratio covenant for 2004 from 1.0 to 90% of the ratio as projected in the
Company's budget. On May 20, 2004, the lender again amended the terms of the
financing arrangement by increasing the availability on the Company's revolving
line of credit by an additional $340,000. As of October 2, 2004, the Company was
in compliance with its debt covenants. As of October 2, 2004, $4,388,965 was
outstanding on the Company's revolving line of credit and $1,211,000 was
available for additional borrowings. The revolving credit line and term loans
mature on January 3, 2005. The Company has received proposals to provide a
revolving line of credit, term debt and an equipment line of credit upon the
expiration of the above credit arrangement.

(2) On March 5, 2004, a local bank refinanced the note payable to the former
shareholders of Apex Machine Tool Company Inc, paying that note in full (the
"March 2004 Refinancing"). The new mortgage loan in the original amount of
$1,659,000 is secured by a mortgage on the Company's real property located in
Farmington, Connecticut, and is due in 120 monthly installments of $12,452
including interest at 6.49% with a balloon payment due on April 1, 2014. The
monthly payment will be adjusted by the bank every 5 years to reflect interest
at the FHLBB Amortizing Advance Rate plus 2.75%. The classification of long-term
debt has been determined in the accompanying January 3, 2004 consolidated
balance sheet based on the repayment terms after consideration of the March 2004
Refinancing.

(3) On April 1, 2004, in accordance with an April 3, 2003 agreement with the
Company's former lender, the $1 million non-interest bearing note payable to the
former lender reduced to $750,000, since certain events, including a change of
control, sale of the Company or liquidation, had not occurred or been initiated
as of that date. This forgiveness of debt was recorded by the Company as a gain
in the first quarter of 2004. The note will be forgiven in its entirety on April
1, 2005 if no such disqualifying events have occurred or been initiated as of
that date.

(4) On September 30, 2004, the final payment of $73,611 plus interest was made
on this note.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS


Sales. The Company's sales increased $1,105,000, or 17.2%, and $3,931,000, or
20.0%, for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2004, respectively, as
compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 2003. The
increase in sales was due to increased sales to our primary machine tool and
aerospace customers. Specifically, aerospace related sales increased by $738,000
for the nine months ended October 2, 2004 due to an agreement reached with the
Company's largest aerospace customer (see Liquidity and Capital Resources
section).

As of October 2, 2004, sales backlog was approximately $21,100,000 compared to
$18,000,000 as of January 3, 2004. Backlog consists of accepted purchase orders
that are cancelable by the customer without penalty, except for payment of costs
incurred. The Company presently expects to complete approximately $7,500,000 of
its October 2, 2004 backlog during the remainder of the 2004 fiscal year. The
remaining $13,600,000 of backlog is deliverable in the fiscal year 2005 and
beyond.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased to 89.7% from
87.8% and decreased to 88.6% from 89.6% for the three and nine month periods
ended October 2, 2004, compared to the three and nine month periods ended
September 27, 2003. The increase for the three months ended October 2, 2004 was
due to higher maintenance and expendable tooling costs. The decrease for the
nine months ended October 2, 2004 was due to sales levels increasing in 2004
greater than manufacturing costs due to the fixed element of certain
manufacturing costs, offset by higher maintenance and expendable tooling costs.
Additionally, the Company's consolidation of its four independent divisions into
one operating entity in the first quarter of 2003 allowed the Company to reduce
overhead, improve efficiencies and share resources. The Company incurred costs
associated with the consolidation of $159,000 in the first quarter of 2003 which
were included in cost of sales.

Selling, General & Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased by $55,000, or 8.2%, and by $256,000,


<PAGE>


or 12.0%, for the three and nine month periods ended October 2, 2004, compared
to the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 2003. The decrease in
these costs was mainly the result of decreased professional expenses.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $19,000, or 11.0%, and by
$43,000, or 8.4%, for the three and nine month periods ended October 2, 2004,
compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 2003. This
decrease was due to (i) the March 2004 Refinancing described in Note B, which
decreased the interest rate on $1,659,000 of debt by 3.63% and (ii) lower debt
levels.

Gain on Debt Forgiveness. The Company recorded a gain of $250,000 in the first
quarter of 2004 reflecting the forgiveness of a portion of the non-interest
bearing note with its former lender from $1,000,000 to $750,000. This reduction
was in accordance with the Company's April 3, 2003 agreement with the former
lender. (See Note B to condensed consolidated financial statements).


Liquidity and Capital Resources.

In June 2004, the Company and its largest aerospace customer reached an
agreement whereby the customer would pay an advance of $1.8 million in
connection with certain contracts that had been put on hold by the customer in
2002. In the third quarter, upon receipt of the payment in July 2004, the
customer took title to the related inventory and the Company recorded a
reduction to inventory of approximately $1.0 million, representing the
difference between the payment of $1.8 million and the portion of the advance
associated with completed contracts for which revenue of $785,000 was recognized
at that time.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $959,000 for the nine months ended
October 2, 2004 resulted primarily from net income adjusted for non-cash
expenses, an increase in accounts payable and an increase in customer deposits,
partially offset by increases in accounts receivable, refundable income taxes
and prepaid expenses. Accounts receivable increased $2,350,000 and accounts
payable increased $1,538,000 since January 3, 2004, due to increased sales and
production in the quarter ended October 2, 2004. Customer advances increased
$277,000 since January 3, 2004, due to advances from a non-aerospace customer on
certain large contracts to be delivered in 2004. The Company is able to borrow
against the increase in eligible accounts receivable through its revolving line
of credit.

Net cash used in investing activities of $167,000 for the nine months ended
October 2, 2004, consisted of expenditures for machinery and computer equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities of $174,000 for the nine months ended
October 2, 2004, resulted from repayments of long-term debt

<PAGE>


partially offset by borrowings on the Company's revolving line of credit.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $301,000 for the nine months ended
September 27, 2003, resulted primarily from net income adjusted for non-cash
income related to the forgiveness of indebtedness and adjusted for non-cash
charges for depreciation and amortization and a decrease in inventories and the
collection of refundable income taxes, offset by increases in accounts
receivable and prepaid expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities of $153,000 for the nine months ended
September 27, 2003 consisted primarily of expenditures for machinery and
computer equipment, offset by proceeds from the sale of equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities of $159,000 for the nine months ended
September 27, 2003 resulted from repayments of long-term debt, partially offset
by borrowings on the Company's revolving line of credit.

On January 15, 2004, the Company's primary lender amended the Company's
revolving credit facility and term loans. Under the terms of the amended
agreement, the lender increased the availability on the Company's revolving line
of credit by $400,000 and changed the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant for
2004 from 1.0 to 90% of the ratio as projected in the Company's budget. On May
20, 2004, the lender again amended the terms of the financing arrangement by
increasing the availability on the Company's revolving line of credit by an
additional $340,000. As of October 2, 2004, the Company was in compliance with
its debt covenants. As of October 2, 2004, $4,388,965 was outstanding on the
Company's revolving line of credit and $1,211,000 was available for additional
borrowings. The revolving credit line and term loans mature on January 3, 2005.
The Company has received proposals to provide a revolving line of credit, term
debt and an equipment line of credit upon the expiration of the above credit
arrangement.

On March 5, 2004, a local bank refinanced the note payable to the former
shareholders of Apex Machine Tool Company Inc, paying that note in full (the
"March 2004 Refinancing"). The new mortgage loan, which is secured by a mortgage
on the Company's real property located in Farmington Connecticut, is due in 120
monthly installments of $12,452 including interest at 6.49% with a balloon
payment due on April 1, 2014. The monthly payment will be adjusted by the bank
every 5 years to reflect interest at the FHLBB Amortizing Advance Rate plus
2.75%. The classification of long-term debt has been determined in the
accompanying January 3, 2004 consolidated balance sheet based on the repayment
terms after consideration of the March 2004 Refinancing as described in note B).

<PAGE>
On September 30, 2004, the Company made the final monthly payment of $73,611
plus interest on a note payable that was a result of the 2003 debt
restructuring.
