ATTENTION: The Metal Shop has purchased a brand new Mitsubishi 3015 LVP Plus II Laser with a 5x10' Table!! The New laser is a fantastic additon to our growing shop. It can cut .125" steel @ 115" per minute!! That is flying!! Give us call and take advantage of our increased speed, accuracey and material thickness capabilities on your next project.

Take a look at our capabilities listed above. We are able to do small one off projects and complete part runs. Got an idea for a new product? Need a working prototype, we can help with this. Machine and Fab shops, think about the time savings by having your parts "roughed" out on the water-jet or laser. These are just some areas we can help with.

We have over 40 years experience in fabrication experience. Our staff all have many years of experience in the machining and mold business including the high demand world of professional racing. Our specialty is the fabrication of custom trade show exhibits working in cooperation with Catalyst Exhibits. Catalyst relies on the capabilities The Metal Shop offers. We help many of their designs come to life. With the equipment The Metal Shop has, Catalyst's designers have more freedom to create new and exciting projects. Working in this industry gives us the ability to do things quickly and accurately due to the very tight work deadlines. Rest assured your project will be given the same attention to time and detail as our exhibit clients.

We've made the investment in equipment, so you don't have to. Send us a drawing, CAD file or sketch. Our goal is to help your project become reality. Give us a call or email us to get a quote or to just find out more info on how e can help complete your project.
