Born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, artist Johnnie Floyd knew as a youth that working with his hands would become a lifelong pursuit. His cultivated talent was eventually rewarded with a scholarship to the prestigious Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, Ohio, one of the premier art institutions in the country, and it was here that Johnnie was able to bring his two greatest passions, design and fabrication, together in the field of Industrial Design.
Floyd returned to his childhood home to apply his artistic and mechanical abilities to the cause of another passion: auto racing. For the last 15 years Johnnie has been honing his skills in this area. Johnnie lives on Lake Norman with his family in the great state of North Carolina.
Johnnie's favorite quote comes from an unknown author,
To truly live a creative life, we must first lose our fear of being wrong.

A Note Re: Steel Recycling
The #1 recycled material in North America is not paper, plastic, aluminum, or glass. Over the past 50 years the steel industry has produced approximately 50% of its new products from reclaimed/recycled materials. The process has gotten so efficient that steel re-cycling is now greater than all the materials mentioned above COMBINED!
Half of what is shown below was at one time something else!

Jason M. Milks: The Motivated Entrepreneur
100_0647.jpg
He had a lot of good times growing up in Buffalo, NY. Taking his college career seriously he received a degree in Business with a focus on Marketing. Deciding to leave his hockey and skiing life behind he moved to Charlotte, NC and with some luck, and a willingness to work he landed a job with a race team. While there for nearly 10 years he worked his way up the corporate ladder.
Jason will tell you his work ethic came from his Grandfathers who both started and grew successful businesses. His dream was to start his own business some day and as these things go, he met the right people at the right time and The Steel Appeal was born. The Steel Appeal is a product of not one or two people's efforts, but the efforts of many, this is something Jason is so appreciative of and is what he has enjoyed most about The Steel Appeal's beginnings.
Jason lives with his wife Amber and an incredible boxer named Victor in Cornelius, NC.
Jason's favorite quote is from one of his heroes
