Our products look different because they are designed for where our world is headed, not where we’ve been. We are designers, engineers, and makers. We strive to produce beautiful products that work better than what came before them. Importantly, we are also designing for the future – using highly-networked, additive, local, and on-demand manufacturing methods – trademarks of Industry 4.0 and the Second Machine Age.
Makers Gotta Make
Maxwell June was founded in 2019 by Robert Glenn, founder of Rute Design, a Chicago-based product design and engineering company.
Rob set out to harness the superior performance of a Double-Edge safety razor with the convenience and comfort of a disposable cartridge. The Twin Blade is the result of 1000+ hours of design and engineering and more than a hundred 3D printed prototypes, all of which Rob used to shave every day in order to test, adjust, and perfect.
After reaching the limit of Rute Design’s 3D printing capabilities, Rob started up a machine shop with his twin brother Rich, an expert production machinist, in their hometown of Rockford, IL. @twinspindlecorp is where you can see a glimpse of our activities as we prototype and ramp up production of the Maxwell June product line.
