Bring us the problem

We solve engineering problems

A worn shaft, a seized bush, a part nobody stocks any more. Bring in the part, a sample, a sketch or a drawing.

  1. 1

    Repair it

    Worn or damaged components machined back to a working fit.

  2. 2

    Modify it

    Existing parts altered to suit a new fit or a new job.

  3. 3

    Remake it

    When the part is past saving, a new one made from the old part, a sample or a drawing.

From a sketch to a part

Send us the drawing, we make the part

A sketch with a few sizes on it is enough to start. We work from drawings, samples and worn originals.
