WHAT WE DO
PROTOTYPING AND SMALL SERIES
We craft bespoke components and limited production runs using conventional manually operated machines. Our approach, bolstered by years of experience ensures precision, flexibility, and a hands-on personal commitment to quality. Allowing for technical refinement at each step, our methods are ideal for the production of prototypes, unique pieces and limited small series or those seeking a more traditional, yet precise approach.
