Our Team
Chett Jessee, President/Owner
Chett Jessee is the President and Owner of J.B. Precision, Inc. (Jessee Brothers Machine Shop, Inc.) and a second generation machinist. He founded the business in 1974 doing side work for nearby machine shops out of his parents garage in Campbell, California.
Chett started learning the trade while standing on a box, to better reach the machines, when he was 12 years old at his father’s shop. During his last two years at Campbell High School he attended trade school learning machining, going directly into the business once he graduated. After his first year he found himself with more work than he could keep up with and moved the company into its first building on Sunny Oaks Avenue. Chett brought his brother in as a partner (hence the name Jessee Brothers Machine Shop, Inc.) and several years later bought him out, and the business transformed into J.B. Precision, Inc.
With the business in his sole ownership it experienced a steady growth and the company relocated several times to larger locations. In 1992 Chett purchased the 12,000 square foot building in Campbell where the company currently resides.
Chett is currently enjoying his retirement with a lot of deep sea fishing and playing with his hot rods.
