Acutech is Montana's most technologically advanced metalworking facility for structural steel, high tolerance machining, and precision cutting.

"I’m very disappointed with Acutech. I visited Acutech to inquire about a kitchen countertop support. I was going with a simple 1/4” steel plate 20” x 60”. I was given a quote for $350 with the explanation that the new tariffs just caused the prices to double. That sounded high but I felt they were being honest so I placed the order. The order was ready within a week. I installed the plate. A couple of weeks later I checked in to the price of that same piece of steel from a competitor to Acutech. I found that the steel was a available for $98. I feel that Acutech took advantage of my trust. It is ultimately my responsibility to have searched out multiple quotes for my project but I never dreamed someone would charge 3-1/2 times the price of this steel plate. I went back to Acutech and told them of my disappointment and all they could say is “I’m sorry you feel that way “. I would not recommend doing business with Acutech. If you do, definitely, get additional quotes. I’m not sure how a company can stay in business with such questionable business practices."

Metal Fabrication and Restoration questions, answered by experts

Steel doors are among the most affordable options for your front door. Steel doors are worth the cost if you’re looking for a budget-friendly door that maximizes home security and energy efficiency. Plus, they can last up to 100 years, making them a high-quality and long-term investment.

Repairs can typically be completed within a few hours, though larger projects requiring multiple layers or precise shaping may take longer.

You should not do your own welding unless you have the proper training and experience. Most home electrical systems can only handle MIG welding, which creates weaker bonds than TIG welding and won’t work on certain metals or metal thicknesses. Both welding forms usually require the use of shielding gas, which can be dangerous to store at home. Additionally, welding machines create temperatures of over 3,000 degrees, and the sparks can blind you if you don’t have the proper equipment. As such, it’s usually better to hire a professional welder for your welding projects.

The fastest and easiest way to remove small rust spots from metal is to combine lemon juice and baking soda or borax. You can mix them to make a thick paste, apply the paste to your rusted areas, let it sit for a half hour, and then gently scrub the spots with a bristle brush or old toothbrush. Finally, wipe the area clean with a lightly damp rag.

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?
