Our History

Machine Tools Northwest was founded in 2009 by Vince Selway the company’s president. Vince came from a large family-owned machine tool company founded in the 60s by Vince’s grandfather Roy Selway. When Roy passed away Vince’s father Pat Selway and his brothers took over and continued to grow the company. Vince learned from them a lot of the characteristics he takes on today. Pat was a no-nonsense guy and no matter what, he told the truth and worked extremely hard. Vince brought those values with him when he started Machine tools Northwest and instills them in every employee that comes to work for Machine Tools Northwest.

“We are based upon honest relationships and providing our customers with solutions to help them be more efficient and their companies be more profitable. We are not going to come in and sell you a brochure today. We like to dig in and see how we can help.” -Vince Selway
