About Crucial Manufacturing

Crucial Manufacturing is a full spectrum CNC machining and assembly company with a passion for creating matter that matters. Supporting projects across scientific research, high tech R&D, optics, and more, Crucial often takes on jobs that don’t “fit the mold” for most machine shops, and we pride ourselves on high precision, high quality work done well and done quickly.

Our Story

Our story begins, like many of the tech companies we serve, in a small California garage. One man, founder and CEO Allen Lynch, Sr. and one machine, endearingly nicknamed “Twitchy,” were just the start for Crucial Manufacturing.

In 2019, armed with a dream and years of experience designing, programming, and running CNC machines for other organizations in the tech, engine building, and aerospace sectors, Allen relocated Crucial to Mississippi and eventually to the 6,000 sq ft shop in Purvis that we now call home. 

Allen’s dream was to be able to have a say in the work he and his company invested their time in and to be able to teach and share his skillset with others.

Crucial continues to do work we believe in, so you can believe in our work.
