Organizational structure
Chief Executive Officer
Twenty-one years in the position — dog years, but he counts every one. No performance review has ever been conducted. Takes lunch at eleven.
Head of Security & Quality Control
Twenty-eight in dog years and twice as suspicious. Inspects every weld and clears every visitor. Reports directly to Hambone.
Grunt Labor
Certified and insured. Does the welding, the fabrication, the machining, the invoicing, and the driving. Bottom of the pecking order.
Reviews are annual. Ben reports to both of them and has not received one. Meet the crew →

The part that pays for the dog food
Welding, fabrication, and machining in Elko, Nevada — including stainless and aluminum.
In-house fabrication and mobile service across northeastern Nevada. We weld steel, stainless, and aluminum; machine custom parts; and print custom metal parts in 3D when a part can't be bought. Certified and insured. Send a photo of what's broken and you'll get a real number and a real date.
Asked at the counter
Yes. The rig comes to you — Elko, Spring Creek, Carlin, Wells, and Battle Mountain. Outside that, call and we'll talk about it.
Call 775-934-4590 or send a photo of what's broken with a rough idea of how thick it is. That's usually enough for a real number and a real date.
Welding, fabrication, and machining — repairs, trailers, gates, railings, equipment, and custom work. If it's metal, ask.
Yes — steel, stainless, and aluminum. Aluminum and stainless take more setup than mild steel, so send a photo and tell us roughly how thick it is and we'll get you a straight number.
Usually. We machine custom parts from scratch, and we can 3D print custom metal parts when something is obsolete, discontinued, or was never sold separately. Bring the broken one or a drawing and we'll work from that.
Yes and yes. Ben carries the certifications. Hambone has never been asked for his.
Monday through Friday, 7am to 5pm. Saturdays by call. Lunch is at eleven and is not negotiable.
He's usually supervising from the good chair. If he's asleep, that's a scheduled inspection of the inside of his eyelids. Porkchop will clear you at the door.
