WHO SHOWS UP
My name is Pete Thornton, and I own and operate Iron Maple Machine LLC. I began working on equipment at a young age on the farms where I grew up, building a strong foundation in agricultural machinery and hands-on problem solving. From there, I spent time in a large commercial shop working on heavy-duty trucks, where I expanded my knowledge of diesel engines, diagnostics, and proper repair verification processes.
While that experience was invaluable, I found my passion wasn’t inside a shop, but out on farms and in the field, getting equipment back up and running so the job could get done. Today, my goal is to bring the quality, reliability, and professionalism of a big shop directly to your site. By servicing machines where they work, I help reduce downtime and eliminate the hassle of transporting equipment or arranging pickups.
