 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 OVERVIEW

     Our revenues are primarily derived from the sale of plastic
 injection molded parts.  The normal practice in the injection molding
 industry is to be a custom molder, which involves only the
 manufacturing of parts.  However, we also generate revenues by assembly
 and value-added operations.  Our marketing efforts are dedicated
 towards contract manufacturing of high precision and high quality
 parts, which includes these assembly and value-added operations.  We
 began operations in November of 1997, and were considered a development
 stage company through March of 1999.  We incurred losses from inception
 through June of 1999.  These losses are primarily due to costs
 associated with a start-up enterprise, training costs, initial excess
 manufacturing capacity, higher than average selling and administrative
 expenses and related costs.  We expect to incur a net loss from
 operations in fiscal year 2000 and 2001 as a result of planned growth
 for these years.
<PAGE>
     Research and development expenses include expenses for research,
 design and development of the MGS Group's multi-shot process which
 permits
 us to mold different types of plastic resin, typically with different
 aesthetic and texture qualities, into a single plastic part.  Because
 of our relationship to the MGS Group, we have access to the multi-shot
 technology and other related manufacturing processes.  Research and
 development costs are not material and are included in the cost of
 goods sold section of our income statements.

 INFORMATION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This report contains certain of our expectations and other forward-
 looking information regarding the Company pursuant to the safe-harbor
 provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
 While we believe that these forward-looking statements are based on
 reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future
 performance and all such statements involve risk and uncertainties that
 could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated
 in this report.  The assumptions, risks and uncertainties relating to
 the forward-looking statements in this report include general economic
 and business conditions, developments in our planned expansion,
 availability of adequate capital, changes in the prices of raw
 materials, and competitive pricing in the markets served by us.  These
 and other assumptions, risks and uncertainties are described under the
 caption "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information"
 set forth in this Form 10-Q on page 10.
                                    -6-
 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     SALES. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal
 2000, our sales increased 488% and 512% over comparable time periods in
 fiscal 1999.  The continued rapid increases are primarily attributable
 to improved plant efficiency, increased customer demand and the addition
 of new customers.  The majority of our sales increases are the results
 of increased volume rather than increases in per unit sales prices.
 During the second quarter of fiscal 2000 our backlog of unfilled
 orders, believed to be firm, increased from $5.66 million at December
 31, 1999 to $13.46 million at March 31, 2000.

     We continue to capitalize on our relationship with Moldmakers, Inc.
 and Prototype Mold & Design, two of our related companies within the
 MGS Group, to produce tooling as part of our total manufacturing
 solution.

     COST OF GOODS SOLD.  In keeping with our exponential increase in
 sales, cost of sales increased 289% from the second quarter of fiscal
 1999 to the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  For the six months ended
 March 31, 2000 cost of goods sold was $11,307,000 as compared to
 $2,594,000 for the period ended March 31, 1999.  However, when
 expressed as a percentage of sales, cost of goods sold in the second
 quarter of fiscal 2000 and for the six months ended March 31, 2000
 decreased to 86% and 83% respectively compared to 125% and 116% for
 comparable periods in fiscal 1999.  This decrease allowed us to
<PAGE>
 recognize a gross profit of $2,291,000 for the six months ended March
 31, 2000 as compared to a loss of $370,000 for the six months ended
 March 31, 1999.  Materials as a percentage of molding sales decreased
 between quarters due to product mix and increased quality.  Direct
 labor costs continued to increase in order for us to meet sales growth.
 Comparing labor costs from the first quarter to the second quarter of
 fiscal 2000 shows a substantial decrease in labor as a percentage of
 sales from 27% to 18%.  Fixed overhead decreased from 29% of sales to
 16% of sales.  This is due to the greater utilization of equipment,
 facilities and labor.  During the second quarter we also received
 credits of approximately $550,000 pursuant to the terms of our lease
 for our Germantown, Wisconsin facilities and a refund of approximately
 $700,000 with respect to various purchase orders for tooling which had
 been completed by related parties.  The credits for the tooling
 purchase orders reflected adjustments to the contract price to reflect
 the actual costs incurred by the parties on a time and materials basis.
 No material similar credits were received during the second quarter of
 1999.
                                    -7-
     SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Selling and administrative
 expenses increased from $227,000 during the second quarter of fiscal
 1999 to $1,188,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  For the
 six months ended March 31, 2000 selling and administrative expenses
 were $2,082,000 as compared to $372,000 for the period ended March 31,
 1999.  This increase is due to the addition of sales and management
 personnel in order to implement our expansion plans into new geographic
 areas.

    INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense was $5,000 in the second quarter
 of fiscal 1999, and $51,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  For
 the six months ended March 31, 2000 interest expense has totaled
 $74,000 compared with $6,000 in the first six months of fiscal 1999.
 Interest expense arises from borrowings on our line of credit.  Use of
 our line of credit has and will continue to increase with increased
 sales levels and the directly related increases in accounts receivable
 and inventory.

     INCOME TAX EXPENSE.  Income tax expense was a tax benefit of
 $211,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1999, and a tax expense
 of $43,100 for the second quarter of fiscal 2000.  For the first
 six months of fiscal 1999 a tax benefit of $275,000 was recorded
 compared with an expense of $51,200 for the first six months of
 fiscal 2000.  These amounts are calculated as a percentage of pre-tax
 income, and reflect, accordingly, the pre-tax loss or pre-tax income at
 the end of the above stated periods.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     We are continuing to finance our operations with a combination of
 private capital, a bank line of credit facility and leases.  In April
 2000 the Company obtained an increase in its line of credit from $3
 million to $5 million from M&I Northern Bank.

     Net cash used by operating activities totaled $454,000 for the
 first six months of fiscal 1999 and $2.5 million for the first six
 months of fiscal 2000.  Cash used in operating activities for each
<PAGE>
 period resulted primarily from the necessity of funding inventory and
 accounts receivable growth in excess of our accounts payable growth.

     Net cash used in investing activities totaled $195,000 in the first
 six months of fiscal 1999 and $746,000 in the first six months of
 fiscal 2000.  Cash used in investing activities for each period
 resulted from the acquisition of leasehold improvements and
 manufacturing equipment.
                                    -8-
     Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $636,000 for the
 first six months of fiscal 1999 and $3.1 million for the first six
 months of fiscal 2000.  Cash provided by financing activities for each
 period resulted primarily from draws on our bank line of credit.

     We believe that the net proceeds from our offering of 500,000
 shares of common stock (see Part II, Item 2), together with current
 cash balances, and available term debt, line of credit, and lease
 financing will be sufficient to fund our expected growth and related
 working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the 2000
 fiscal year.  Without the expected proceeds of the above-referenced
 offering, we will require additional financing from commercial lenders
 or the MGS Group to implement our expansion plans at the pace we
 currently anticipate.  We currently anticipate the need to raise
 approximately $7 million in additional capital through the issuance of
 additional equity securities and borrowings to implement our fiscal
 year 2001 business plan.  We anticipate that $5 million of this
 additional $7 million will be required in the fourth quarter of fiscal
 2000 as we begin to acquire equipment needed to implement our 2001
 business plan.  If we are unable to raise this additional capital, our
 fiscal 2001 expansion will also be delayed.

     Our offer to repurchase up to 722,490 shares expired on April 14,
 2000.  No shares were tendered to us pursuant to our rescission offer.

     Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial
 resources will be adequate is a forward-looking statement that involves
 risks and uncertainties.  Our actual funding requirements may differ
 materially from our forecasts as a result of a number of factors
 including our plans to expand our operations geographically and the
 expansion of our value added and assembly operations as part of our
 total manufacturing solution.  We cannot be certain that additional
 funds will be available on satisfactory terms when needed, if at all.
 If we are unable to raise additional necessary capital in the future,
 we may be required to scale down our expansion plans significantly.

 YEAR 2000

     We have not experienced any material disruption in our operations
 or in our business relationships with suppliers or customers due to
 year 2000 readiness.  We do not believe that the year 2000 issue will
 have a material effect on our operations or those of our material
 third-party vendors or customers.  Based on current estimates, we
 anticipate no future costs related to year 2000 issues.

                                    -11-
 ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 We do not have a material market risk associated with interest rate
 risk, foreign currency exchange risk, or commodity price risk.  We
 conduct U.S. dollar denominated export transactions or immediately
 exchange all foreign currency attributable to export sales for U.S.
 dollars.  Foreign sales for fiscal year 2000 are expected to represent
 approximately 20% of sales.
                                    -12-

                    PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

 ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     We are the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed in the District Court of
 Tarrant County, Texas, which seeks to terminate a lease entered into by
 us in November, 1999 with respect to a 142,000 square foot building in
 Fort Worth, Texas.  We believe the premises did not meet the
 requirements of the lease and are seeking a determination by the court
 that the lease is of no legal effect or, alternatively, has been
 breached by the landlord.  The lease is for a term of seven years
 ending December 31, 2006 and provides for annual payments of $366,648,
 $431,880, $518,436 respectively, over the first three years of the term
 and annual payments of $518,436 over each of the remaining four years
 of the term.  We believe that our legal position is correct and
<PAGE>
 that a court should find in our favor.  In addition, the landlord has a
 duty under Texas law to mitigate its damages and seek another tenant.
 For these reasons, we do not, as of the date of this report, believe
 that this dispute will have a material adverse effect on our financial
 condition or liquidity.  Litigation is, by its nature, uncertain and if
 the lease is held to be enforceable and no other tenant is found for
 the building it would have a material adverse effect on our
 financial condition.

 ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

     The effective date of our first registration statement, filed on
 Form S-1 (Commission file number 333-92019) under the Securities Act of
 1933, was March 13, 2000.  This registration statement related to
 500,000 shares of our common stock to be sold for cash and 722,490
 shares of our common stock which we are offering to repurchase for
 cash.  The offering commenced on March 13, 2000 and is continuing.

     The repurchase offer terminated on April 14, 2000.  No shares were
 repurchased by us.

     The aggregate offering price of the common stock to be sold for
 cash is $6 million.  As of March 31, 2000, we had sold 3,740 shares for
 an aggregate offering price of $44,880.  The offering is not
 underwritten.  We have incurred expenses (including filing, legal,
 accounting fees) of $183,000 through March 31, 2000 in connection with
 the offering.  No amounts have been paid to our directors, officers, or
 persons who own 10% or more of our
                                    -13-
 common stock or to our affiliates.  Our net offering proceeds through
 March 31 have been applied to working capital.
