CBC Radio’s Margaret Gallagher, the host and producer of North by Northwest, BC’s highest-rated weekend show, reached out to us for an interview in early November 2024. Margaret meets creative people from all around the province speaking about their passions and inspirations.
Metal Fabrication & Blacksmithing
Metal fabrication involving cutting, heating, forming, shaping, welding and bending metal is our business. We fabricate parts for repairs and restorations, make one-off items and teach blacksmithing, welding and fabrication.
Bespoke Items
In addition to fabricating parts for repairs and restorations, we make one-off, bespoke items, such as metal stands for artists who need their glass, ceramic art and sculptures mounted safely and beautifully. And we even make made-to-measure tools, like glazing tongs for local potters.
You can see many examples of our work below.
Materials
We work with aluminum, brass, bronze, copper, lead, steel and tin.
But we do not work with stainless steel, galvanized or zinc-plated steel.
No Vehicles or Vehicle Parts
We do not work on cars, bikes, motorcycles or their parts, including racks, stands, etc.
Fabrication Projects
This beautiful, coated copper Baptismal Ewer from the 1950s came from a church in West Vancouver. The president of the Altar Guild brought it to us, hoping we could repair it. It had a broken cross and a severely scratched front face. Though it had been repaired once before with soft-solder by a jeweller, the repair had not held.
