​"McMurphy's" is an instance of "Walter Kern tool production GmbH" (estimated since 1973) with a distinct industry network. For more information about our services, factories and teams, feel free to visit our company's website: https://www.walter-kern.de
In order to help realizing the infrastructure for this revolutionary and fast growing industry, our company is built as a franchise system. If you are interested in becoming a franchise partner, dont hesitate to contact us!
Concept
All "McMurphy's" garages and sprinters are built up the same way, with an innovative concept for maximum efficiency and speed. Every tool has its own place and the process of using them is completely structured. To maintain a clean and ordered garage, the used geometries and materials for the interior are set in a specific way.
All franchise partners are supported by the headquarter for building their garages and sprinters according to the concept-rules. Also, they will receive the unique know-how and get access to the academic cloud to preserve the existing and newly gained knowledge. All that saved experience is essential for educating new personnel. For more information, please contact us!

Founders

M.Sc. Thomas Kern
Aerospace engineer

"My professional career has been characterized by the development of sophisticated, cutting-edge technology. My studies in aerospace engineering gave me the necessary foundation to subsequently develop valuable practical knowledge in prototype construction. With the support of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), I was able to realize the prototype of a small, lightweight lunar rover, from the initial concept to the drivable vehicle. Later, as part of the company Atmos Space Cargo, I successfully developed a highly complex technical system for returning payloads from orbit to Earth. In spring 2025, we successfully launched the system into space on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. I now feel ready to put all my experience into building "McMurphy's" and become part of the greatest technological revolution humanity will experience in the coming years!"

"My studies in mechanical engineering initially led me to a position as a traditional designer in industry, primarily for punching and bending tools, but also for connecting rods used in motorsports. This, along with my past as a racing driver, led me to found my own company in early 2020 to cover Formula 1 on video platforms such as YouTube and TikTok. With three channels now, a total of over 30 million views, and 150,000 subscribers, I have a strong understanding of online reach, communications, and marketing. Coupled with my technical skills as an engineer and my experience as a speaker, I am the ideal candidate to take over "McMurphy's" external communications and social media presence and ensure the company stays in the conversation."
