# Big Capabilities, Local Service: Why Our Shop Is Built for Projects of All Sizes

At our shop in Woodstock, New Brunswick, we’ve earned a reputation for building full-scale machines and industrial systems. But not every job that comes through our doors is massive.

While we’re proud of the big builds, we’ve also made sure to invest in the kind of equipment that allows us to take on smaller, one-off, or rush jobs. Whether it’s a custom bracket for a local HVAC contractor, a shaft repair for a farmer, or a replacement part for a fabricator on a tight timeline, we have the tools, and the team, to get it done.

Here’s a look at the machinery that allows us to serve both ends of the spectrum:

**CNC 4-Axis Lathe with Live Tooling (80” Travel)** This powerhouse is designed for complex, high-precision parts. We’ve used it to machine custom hydraulic cylinder ends, precision bushings, and multi-surface parts for local industry, all in one setup. It’s perfect for those tough jobs where accuracy and time matter.

**CNC Mazak (40” x 20” Travel)** This machine is ideal for mid-sized work that needs to be tight and repeatable. Mounting plates, adapter blocks, and fabricated components all get the same attention to detail, whether we’re making one or one hundred.

**Boring Mill (70” in All Directions)** Our boring mill handles large parts that need flatness, precise holes, or surface corrections. We’ve machined heavy-duty machine bases, re-faced flanges, and repaired gearbox housings, all without sending anything out of province.

**Manual Lathe (144” Travel)** When someone walks in with a bent shaft or needs a fast thread repair, this is the workhorse that keeps their operation running. We’ve done everything from long auger repairs to custom roller builds.

**Why It Matters for Local Business** We know what it’s like to be in a pinch, a part breaks, a system needs adapting, or the original supplier is weeks out. That’s where we come in. We’re right here in Woodstock, and we can help you solve your problem without long waits, shipping delays, or cross-border uncertainty.

You don’t need a full system build to work with us. If you’ve got a job that needs machining, big or small, we’d be happy to take a look.
