Steel and software / made in America
All problems start at Square One.
So we start there. See a problem, design the answer, and put it into production.

How we work
Designed here. Made in America.
Everything on this page comes out of work that actually ships: steel that ends up on a truck, software that gets used.
One desk, two trades
SolidWorks on one screen and VS Code on the other, both open most days. Nothing waits on a handoff and nothing gets lost explaining it to someone else.
A brand is a line, not a product
Trailhead Werks started as one bike mount and now covers four trucks. New products go into a brand that already has customers, and a new brand happens when a problem does not fit one.
100% bootstrapped
Nothing here was acquired and nothing took outside money. No investors, no exit clock. The hardware has been shipping since 2020 to more than a thousand customers, paid for up front by the people who wanted it. Its profits paid for Lucid Break.
Everything here is something I needed and couldn’t buy.
