Makers and shapers and put-it-togetherers.We work with our hands, and our hands serve us well.Iron and steel provide a nation with its comfort,its luxury, and its progress.This country was conqueredby those who move forward.And you go ahead and land it.For some, there is nothing more beautiful than the man-made spectaculars.All these have come from the roots of the maker’s mind,or the fruits of the maker’s labors.
