Suburban manufacturing veteran to start podcast

Posted January 31, 2023 10:00 pm

ELK GROVE VILLAGE - A 40-year manufacturing veteran is not holding back on the highs and lows of his industry journey. Jim Carr, president and CEO of CARR Machine & Tool, started a new podcast on Monday, Feb. 1.

The second-generation business owner launched "my TRUE POSITION," a free podcast on which he will share advice and the intimate details of his business career. Carr will record from within his favorite four walls, those of his 15,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Elk Grove Village.

The podcast title is apropos not only because Carr intends to share his true position on how he feels about growing up in manufacturing, but it also gives a nod to a standard industry term for geometric measuring tolerance.

"It's certainly going to be introspective," Carr said. I need to share my authentic experience because I stumbled in so many ways on my own business journey."

No stranger to the podcast world, Carr was a co-founder and co-host of the manufacturing podcast "MakingChips" since 2014.
