Quality & documentation
Every part has
a paper trail.
Most shops our size answer quality questions with adjectives. Ours are records: every sheet traceable to the purchase order it arrived on, every defect logged at the station that made it, and the resulting yield published on this site whether it flatters us or not.
The records
Measured where
it happens.
None of this was built for a brochure. These are the working records the shop runs on — the same system that schedules the machines and prints the shipping manifests is the one that answers a quality question six months after the parts shipped.
That is also why the numbers on this site move. A recorded defect lowers the published yield the same day. A number you only show when it flatters you is not evidence of anything.
Material traceability
Every sheet is received under a tracked lot and consumed against specific jobs, so a part traces back to the purchase order — and the paperwork — its material arrived on. Customer-supplied material is held under exactly the same records.
Defects recorded at the station
Scrap is logged where it happens, with a reason, by the operator who ran it. The yield figure on this page is computed from those records and republished through the day.
First-article measurement
For parts that carry critical characteristics, the first article is measured against the print and recorded before the run continues — operator, gauge and readings on file.
Documents, on request
If your purchasing process needs paper, ask — these are standing offers, not special favors.
Mill test reports
MTRs and cert packets for the material in your shipment, available on request with the order.
First-article reports
A measured first-article inspection report against your print's critical characteristics, on request.
Vendor onboarding
W-9 on request, and NET-30 terms on approved credit. Purchase orders welcome — most of our production work runs on them.
If your team needs something not listed here, ask before assuming we cannot produce it. The answer is usually a report away.

Send us something
to cut.
Send a print and a quantity and you will get a real number back from a person who looked at it. If something in the design will make the part expensive or hard to hold tolerance on, we will say so before you commit to it.
- DXF, STEP, DWG, PDF — or a photo of the broken one
- Prototype runs and production lots both welcome
- A response from a person by the next business day
- We will tell you if we are not the right shop for it
