Welding & fabrication
Repair welding, build-up and custom fabrication, backed by a full machine shop so welded parts can be machined back to exact size.
Repair welding and build-up
Worn shafts, bores, housings and mounting surfaces don't always need to be replaced. We build them up with weld and machine them back to size, restoring them to equal or, in many cases, better than original condition.
- Build up and re-machine worn shafts and housings
- Build up and re-bore worn holes in heavy equipment
- Repairs to broken machinery, frames and equipment
- Portable welding at your plant or job site
Custom fabrication
We fabricate parts, assemblies and equipment from your drawings and instructions, or help you design them from scratch.
- Fabrication to your drawing
- Custom conveyors
- Tube, angle and channel rolling
- Press work with a 100-ton press
- Aluminum fabrication, like the trail groomer we designed and built
From an idea to a finished machine
Our shop designed and built the Cragin Groomer, a lightweight, all-aluminum cross-country ski trail drag that can be towed by a snowmobile. The American Birkebeiner Ski Foundation used one to prepare its trails in the low-snow 2001 season, then bought one of its own.

Do you weld on site?
Yes. Portable welding is part of our on-site service, along with portable boring, milling and turning.
Can you fabricate from a sketch or an idea?
Yes. We fabricate from drawings and instructions, and we can help turn a rough idea into a working design with 2D and 3D prints.
Do you work with aluminum?
Yes. The trail groomer we designed and built in our shop is all-aluminum construction. Call to talk about your material and the job.
Can a worn part be welded and machined back to size?
Often, yes. We build up worn shafts, bores and housings with weld and machine them back to size, often to equal or better than original condition.
