| Field Service Mechanical Company History
The original founder of this company, Al Parker, always believed that in order to repair any machinery problem, you need to know how the machine was built. Our history takes our founder to downtown New York City, into Little Italy, where Al worked as a machinist for his uncle, Charles Salzberg. Learning about the principles of machinery and being a young apprentice to his Uncle, Al soon grew to respect and understand the finer inner workings of all mechanics. As World War II started, Al went to serve his country and left his Uncle to only hope one day he would return. Upon completion of his tour of duty, Al returned to his Uncle's shop and worked as a machinist and a mechanic doing all types of mechanical assemblies. At this time, Al, designed a quick release chuck for the tail stocks of his Uncle Charles Salzberg's brand of spinning lathes. With a family on the way, Al starting working in his free time repairing machine tools on board Navy vessels dry docked at the Brooklyn Navy Yard in New York. In 1972, seeing the need for on-site repairs, Al decided to form a new company, Field Service Mechanical Co. This new venture expanded his ability to service the entire metal working industry. Out of a small machine shop in Brooklyn, NY, the ground work for the future of F.S.M. was laid. His son, Steve, at his side, Al continued to satisfy all his customer needs. Steve saw the road his father paved, and when Al retired in 1990 he continued on Field Service Mechanical's tradition of quality repairs and customer satisfaction. Moving the company into a bigger and more modern facility, Steve geared the shop for not only general machining but incorporating the special machine tools necessary to repair machine parts back to OEM specifications. Steve's saying, "The right tool, for the right job" continues the companies traditions and commitment to quality. Field Service Mechanical's expertise is unmatched. Now 3 generations old, F.S.M. has more experience and knowledge to accommodate all of your machinery concerns.
