🎉 10 YEARS OF RYAN 🎉
Today we’re celebrating a pretty big milestone — Ryan officially hits 10 years with Skookum Tools!

Over the last decade, Ryan has worn a lot of hats, helped countless customers, survived approximately 4,000 interruptions from Rob, and kept things moving behind the scenes.

If you’ve followed us for a while, chances are you’ve seen Ryan getting payback through our Annoying Rob series — proving that occasionally distracting your boss can become the best part of the job description.

But beyond the jokes, Ryan has helped shape a lot of what we do today. From solving problems and building new ideas to keeping the office entertained, Ryan has become a huge part of what makes Skookum… well… Skookum.

Thanks for everything over the last 10 years, Ryan — we’re lucky to have you on the team.
Drop Ryan a congratulations below 👇

Stay Skookum 😎

🎂 HAPPY SKOOKUM ANNIVERSARY, RYAN 🎂
10 years deserves a celebration… and Rob understood the assignment.

To celebrate Ryan’s 10 Year Skookum Anniversary, Rob surprised him with a cake and an enthusiastic performance of Happy Skookum Anniversary (to the tune of Happy Birthday, of course).

And because this is Skookum… the cake had to be just a little obnoxious 😏
Obnoxiously delicious, that is.

Huge thank you to Chef Siso and for creating the perfect anniversary cake 🍰

Help us congratulate Ryan below 👇

Stay Skookum 😎

There’s something special about bringing old tools back to life.
One of our customers rebuilt this classic DeWalt saw and got it cutting again with a fresh Skookum + Royce Saw Blade — and we couldn’t not share it.

From restoration to clean, reliable cuts — this is exactly what Skookum Tools is all about. Thanks again Dan for letting us be a part of your projects.

Ryan’s always bugging Rob… but this time he was actually trying to do something nice 🥹
…just maybe not at the best time 😅

Check the comments 👀 (trust us, totally worth it)

Big milestone for Skookum End Mills.

We’re proud to be featured in Toolpath’s latest “What’s New” update as our tooling library goes live inside their platform.

This is about more than visibility — it’s about integrating accurate geometry, clean tooling data, and production-ready tools directly into modern CAM workflows.

Excited for what’s ahead.
