For the second year in a row, customers who choose cutting tools, tool holders and workholding products from Big Daishowa will also be supporting their local manufacturing training programs.

From Oct. 1 – Dec. 29, 2023, the company is donating a cutting tool certificate valued at 20% of every qualifying order to the buyer’s school of choice through the Tools for Schools program. Schools can redeem certificates for any Big Daishowa products, including tool holders, boring tools, cutting tools, workholding products and presetters.

The company offers nine product lines of precision tooling, workholding and tool management systems aimed at reducing overall process time and cost per part. Popular products include face mill holders, end mill holders, collet chucks, angle heads and tapping adaptors. The company’s Kaiser Boring System, high-performance Sphinx Drills and Unilock workholding systems are also available, as are CAT, BT, HSK and Big Capto systems.

To participate in the program:

• The qualifying minimum order is $5,000 (earning a $1,000 cutting tool certificate).
• Place the order through your local distributor and request “Drop-ship from Big Daishowa.”
• Reference “PROMO-BD-SCHOOLS” as a line item on your order.

As a result of last year’s program, Big Daishowa issued nearly $30,000 in cutting tool certificates to high schools, vocational schools, colleges and universities.

According to Jack Burley, president/COO of Big Daishowa, it’s all in line with the company’s overall mission to support a new generation of skilled workers. “We are committed to workforce development. This program allows our customers to support local communities by providing their future workforce with the same tools they use in their shops,” he says.
