Two engineers. Decades of programs shipped. One direct line to you.
M Squared was formed to translate one-off, high-performance designs into repeatable production at the right cost — anchored by the people who run it.
How M Squared came to be
M Squared Manufacturing was formed in 2024 by Buzz and Jack Mosher, both retired mechanical engineers. The incentive came from decades of experience between the two — an entrepreneurial start-up and growth of a plastic manufacturing and assembly company by Buzz, and extensive electro-mechanical engineering design as Chief Mechanical Engineer for a large electronics firm by Jack.
After retirement, Buzz had the opportunity to provide private-equity financing for the start-up of a product development company focused on the top-tier custom-car-building industry. As the start-up began generating cutting-edge product designs, multiple instances availed themselves, and the company began to retain the intellectual property rights for several of the products. Based on the potential for these designs, M Squared was formed as an entity to take the one-off designs into tooling and processes for producing at scale.
Currently there are multiple programs ranging from single-component parts to multi-component electro-mechanical assemblies. The company continues to support the original start-up and has recently expanded its capabilities to the broader market — wherever a product needs design-for-manufacturing thinking and a path to high-volume production.

The people who run every program.
Co-Founder · Plastics & Production
Buzz Mosher
B.S. Mechanical Engineering, University of Arizona
Buzz has a background in administration, program management, and production coordination. He has a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Arizona and, over the course of his career, founded and ran a $120M plastic manufacturing company. During his tenure he was instrumental in developing the plastic components for the first Motorola MicroTAC and StarTAC flip phones.
He is a specialist in plastic part design for manufacturability — with an emphasis on tooling and processes. Since retiring from his plastics career, he has helped set up two start-up companies involved in the manufacturing of automotive-based components and assemblies.
Co-Founder · Mechanical Design
Jack Mosher
B.S. Mechanical Engineering, Arizona State University
Jack has spent 25 years as Chief Mechanical Engineer for a large electronics company, specializing in design for manufacturability of state-of-the-art communications equipment. He has a degree in mechanical engineering from Arizona State University and is competent in complex solid modeling — including finite element analysis and surface modeling — with an emphasis on reliable and functional mechanical design.
He is also knowledgeable in manufacturing processes including casting, molding, CNC machining, and environmental testing procedures.
Capabilities at a glance
What guides every program
Engineering Excellence
Solid modeling, FEA, surface modeling and release-ready documentation done to spec, not to a checklist.
Practical Problem Solving
Real-world manufacturability decisions baked into design — not theoretical consulting that hands off and disappears.
Manufacturing Focus
Every design choice is judged on how cleanly it scales to production, what it costs to tool, and how it gets assembled.
Long-Term Partnerships
Most clients return for the next program. Direct access, IP retention, and a fair pricing model make that possible.
