A Genuine Word of Thanks...
We at Siskiyou Products wish to thank Patrick, Gill, and Claire from our sister company, Profactum, located in Sheffield, England, for the many months and years spent on developing the panel optimizer. Although we especially wish to thank Claire for her undying dedication to perfection and efficiency in developing and fine-tuning the panel optimizer for the woodworking industry, we would also like to thank all three for the many unselfish hours they have spent helping us further develop other aspects of Cabinet Pro and Furniture Pro.
Thank you again, Claire, Gill, and Patrick!
Sincerely,
Frank and Eliana
