In 06/1905, industrialist William Pigott (1860-1929) started the erection of a small plant on land that was rented from another of his businesses, the Seattle Steel Company at Humphrey, later known as the Youngstown, WA. (Youngstown was annexed by the City of Seattle, WA, in 1907.) Inventory of William Pigott's previous company, the Railway Steel and Supply Company, was absorbed by this new entity. This previous company manufactured basic products--structural steel, pig iron, coke--as well as railroad supplies, such as log transport "disconnect" trucks. Pigott's new firm produced steel implements for the logging business, most notably, a log transport railroad car.

This plant burned in 08/12/1907. A fire started in the blacksmith shop and spread to an adjacent lumberyard.
