Family businesses have away of drawing you back. Ian worked for the Flesher Company off and on in a limited capacity for much of his life. After another long hiatus, Ian returned to Flesher in 2008 on a contract-only basis to build a new website. Soon he was developing new software for Flesher machines. After a few years he was Flesher’s operations manager. Following the Flesher Company’s dissolution in 2019, Ian operates Flesher Fonts in support of Premier Hot Foil Lettering, manufacturing new printwheel characters for hot foil stamping machines.
