Todd Branson Stoneworks
Story: Todd Branson, the founder of Todd Branson Stoneworks in Honolulu, Hawaii, is a seasoned professional with over 35 years of experience on the island. Since establishing his company in 2001, Todd has transformed a small car garage operation, initially run by just two men, into a thriving business. After attending a Digital Stoneworking Expo in 2010, Todd partnered with Park Industries, acquiring a comprehensive suite of digital equipment including layout software, CNC sawjet, CNC router, and water system. This investment helped catapult his company’s production capabilities to grow its revenue by 500% within a year.
Todd Branson Stoneworks specializes in serving the high-end market, excelling in mitering and working with all types of stones. Their shop has evolved with Park Industries machines and today features the SlabVision Scanner, SABERjet XP CNC Sawjet, TITAN CNC Router, HydroClear Pro 140 Water System, and FASTBACK II Edge Polisher. As a past attendee of the DSE, Todd invites fabricators to visit his shop to witness the machines and his process in action. His team will also lead a special mitering workshop to share best practices.

Chino Haynes of
Top Priority, Inc.
Story: Chino Haynes, the founder of Top Priority, Inc. in Honolulu, Hawaii, started his journey in the industry back in 1987, when he began working with solid surfaces. In 2005, he established his own business, and by 2007, he expanded into stone fabrication. Today, Top Priority, Inc. boasts both solid surface and stone shops, catering to a diverse range of projects from high-production big box stores to high-end resorts.
After a less-than-stellar initial experience with CNC machines and their service, he transitioned to Park Industries in 2010. This switch was driven by Park’s superior customer service and advanced machinery. Top Priority’s shop has evolved with Park Industries technological advancements, specifically with CNC sawjets. They started with a TITAN 2800, a single-table FUSION and Pathfinder system, then upgraded to the SABERjet XP, and most recently added a two-table JAVELIN CNC Sawjet. They also upgraded to two new TITAN CNC Routers, a FASTBACK II Edge Polisher, and HydroClear Pro 140 Water System. These machines have tripled Top Priority’s production capacity, enabling them to handle up to 1,000 square feet per day. Since partnering with Park, Chino has built the largest fabrication shop in Hawaii. He invites fabricators to the DSE and his shop to see firsthand the impressive work being done “in the middle of the ocean”.
