"I have a 3 feet statue made of recycled parts of a motorcycle that fell down and broke apart. Nathan Schmitz, the owner of Burnt & Stitched Metalworks, responded immediately with an acceptable quote. They arrived on time and looked carefully at the statue that collapsed. They understood how to straighten it, balance it and weld the statue so it will stand straight on a rather narrow base. They work quickly in a very professional way and left the work area clean of every debris. A quality job, well done. I highly recommend this company and its owner Nathan for any metal work you might have."

"Baker finished two rooms in my basement. I received several bids from different contractors and they were middle of the road. They provided me with a project plan and a supervisor (Travis Lefort). They met every key date in their project plan and contacted me on a daily basis to ensure everything they did was to my satisfaction. The contractors they employed to complete my project were all outstanding trades. The quality of their work was excellent and professional. I have experience in dealing with contractors on my past projects and not one have come close to the outstanding communication and hands on this company provides. Travis Lefort is an outstanding individual who managed this project from start to finish. His communication, followup, quality were nothing short of excellent. I can't give Travis Lefort enough accolades on his management of my project. Thank You John T. Hernandez"

"I have never had a project go so smoothly or as timely. I have done a few condo remodels, always on a tight turnaround between tenants or a sale. Brant has impeccable, responsive communication. He does what he says he is going to do and stands by the quality of his work and reputation. You can always find someone to do it cheaper but the value of timeliness, good communication, quality workmanship and customer service is worth it."

Welding questions, answered by experts

Yes, but you’ll need reliable steel-cutting tools and safety gear to get started. Shipping containers are typically around ¾ inch thick, so it’s entirely possible to cut through them, but experience and the right equipment are very important. When possible, try to get a container as close to the size you want it as possible.

There are a few things you can ask welders before you hire them to get an idea of their experience and ability levels:

  • Are you licensed and certified?

  • How long have you been in the welding business?

  • Do you commonly do the type of welding I need?

  • Do you offer any kind of warranty for your work?

  • Do you charge by the hour or by the project?

  • How long do you expect my welding project to take?

  • What steps do you take to minimize errors in your work?

Welding is the process of using extreme heat—and, sometimes, pressure—to attach two pieces of metal. In contrast, metal fabrication is a more involved process that can include welding, sheet metal work, bending, and other forms of metal manipulation. Metal fabrication is a large-scale project that may or may not involve welding, while welding is more often a step in larger fabrication projects.

Cutting round ductwork requires precision and the right tools. A duct cutter, specifically designed for circular ducts, is ideal. First, mark the cutting line on the duct using a measuring tape and pencil. Then, position the duct cutter's blade on the marked line. Apply steady pressure, rotating the cutter around the duct. The sharp blade creates a clean, precise cut. Alternatively, a reciprocating saw with a metal-cutting blade can be used for larger round ducts. Ensure the duct is securely held in place while making the cut to prevent slips and maintain accuracy.

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use.
