In 1773 exactly 250 years ago today, angered by British taxation without representation, American colonists, disguised as Mohawk Indians, boarded British ships in Boston Harbor on December 16th. They dumped 342 chests of tea into the harbor, protesting the Tea Act. The Boston Tea Party became a pivotal moment, fueling anti-British sentiment and contributing to the lead-up to the American Revolution. It symbolized resistance against unjust rule and ignited the flame of independence.

82 years ago today a young Sailor named Harold Saly walked out of a tailor shop aboard the USS Maryland stationed in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii; when two rows of bullets appeared steps in front of him changing his life and word history in a matter of seconds.
The United States had been attacked, bringing the country into World War II.

Many years later he would marry Brenda's Aunt, Virginia, and become family. I'm privileged to have shared many family memories with Uncle Harold. Today I ask you to join me in remembering our country's greatest generation and the men and women who were killed on that fateful Sunday. May God continue to bless our country which so many have given their last full measure to defend.

Extremely proud of this incredible company and the work they do. Jacksonville is where manufacturing happens! First Coast Manufacturers Association

When the entrepreneurs Daniel Sheppard and Andy Thomas went in search of a full-service product development solution, they chose Polyhistor’s expert team to help make their Kettle Gryp concept a reality.

From design to development, Dan and Andy’s Polyhistor experience eventually led them to the Shark Tank stage, where the duo delivered a memorable presentation in front of the show’s famously skeptical judges and national audience—and earned a $300,000 investment!

At Polyhistor, our proficient team offers an impressive array of manufacturing solutions, leveraging precision machining and 3D printing to provide comprehensive product development and contract manufacturing services. Adopting a “project manager” role, we guide our valued customers toward high-sales success, from ideation to prototype—and, eventually, production.

On March 3, 1845 the Great State of Florida was admitted into the United States of America. Florida would be the 27th star added to the United States Flag.

Happy 178th Birthday Florida!

The 27 star Flag is one of the rarest US flags in existence, additionally you’ll see the different variations of the State Seal of Florida over the past 178 years.
