Who We Work With

We look for one-off, prototype and small production work, and we like unusual briefs.

Historic Facade Restoration

New York is full of historic buildings, and keeping them standing often means recreating parts that no longer exist. We machine one-off and small-run pieces to replace and recreate facade elements for historic structures.

Equipment and Skills

We take a project from first idea to measured, finished part. Engineering, analysis and rendering come first, then machining, welding, finishing and inspection, all in one shop. Because we own all the equipment, everything listed can be turned around quickly.
