First U.S. made prototype frame

On Saturday March 9, a Geringhoff team from St. Cloud, MN and Ahlen, Germany completed the welding process on the first 8 row prototype frame.

In the photo are: Christian Kalverkamp, Wolfgang Schwitzke, Peter Scholz, Hermann Braun, Stephan Kaup, John Hinchey, Joseph Gossard and Klaus Pentek.

Although a relatively small component and the first of thousands, the accomplishment is huge achievement from our perspective. Congratulations to the team for this first from Geringhoff.
