“Since 2009, I’ve been cutting and engraving materials for makers, businesses, and inventors. You get consistent quality and direct communication. No layers, no big shop markup.”

Michael J. Weidner handles every project personally — from file review and SolidWorks modeling through toolpaths, cutting, inspection and packing. If there’s a problem with a file, you hear about it before material is cut. If a part isn’t right, it doesn’t ship.

  • 15+ years operating
  • 4 production machines: two large-format CNC routers and two CO2 lasers
  • 48" × 96" router bed — full sheets
  • SolidWorks 3D modeling in-house

Proven at scale

Our own products,
off the same machines

Making our own products keeps the machines, the programs and the quality bar honest — and that’s the standard your parts are cut to.
