FAQ

Common Questions

AutoCAD, for production ready designs across every fabrication process.

Yes. We review and modify existing designs to improve manufacturability, cost, and durability.

Yes. Fit, form, and function are tested on a prototype before the run.

A sketch, a sample part, or a rough concept is enough. We take DXF and STEP files if you have them. Tell us what the part has to do, where it mounts, and the material and finish you expect, and we return a drawing you can approve before anything is cut.
