Ken Sim, Founder & Chief Machine Operator

Ken is the powerhouse behind MASHinery and the owner of Canor Construction and Mano Aggregates, two respected North Bay companies built on decades of moving dirt and building big! With a lifelong love of big machines and hands-on experiences, Ken created MASHinery to turn heavy equipment into safe, confidence-boosting fun. His industry know-how, leadership, and passion for play are what make MASHinery a place where guests don’t just watch the action, they run the machines and make legendary memories.

John Perry – General Manager (Chief Fun Foreman)

With 20+ years of heavy equipment experience, John Perry is the engine behind MASHinery’s daily operations. As General Manager, aka the Chief Fun Foreman, John keeps the site running smoothly, the crew trained to the highest standards, and every guest experience safe, seamless, and unforgettable. From leading daily safety briefings to overseeing Machine Coaches and jumping in when issues arise, John has full on-site authority to pause operations if standards aren’t met, because at MASHinery, safety fuels the fun.

Plus our amazing Machine Coaches

When you arrive you will meet our crew. A team of certified Machine Coaches will be on site to guide, mentor, and cheer you on while you run the machines safely!

It was super cool to experience MASHinery for the first time. I wasn’t sure what it would be like, but the staff was able to guide us through the experience. I almost feel like I could make a career switch… thanks guys!

My son is going through a big construction phase, so it was nice for him to be able to experience it firsthand. I always appreciate having attractions like this around to keep life interesting!

I had a work team building event here and thought it was a cool idea. Something a little different than what we would normally do and just a cool experience in general. I would recommend it to someone looking to switch it up and practice some team building.

MASHinery is great at prioritizing safety and fun. I took my children here and had a great time. They get to experience something they love, and I felt safe with them doing so. I will keep them in mind for future birthdays.

A group of friends and I thought we would try out MASHinery as a fun activity on a trip. It was a great time, and something they don’t really offer in our hometown so a first for us as well. Everyone was friendly and helpful; I would suggest it if you’re looking for a little thrill seeking on vacation.
