Native Prime Provisions Sign

Large Sign Project that was undertaken from design and modeling to the install with my associate Marc Ruggeri. His work on the wall mount was critical and I did the sign fabrication. Cut and finished by hand.

Vent Hood Cover

Another Project for Native Prime Provisions, A long install starting in December of 2021 and ending in September 2022.

Client desired the industrial look with banded strips of metal riveted to the hood. the strips were TIG brazed to each other and screwed to the hood.

Faux rivet heads were made via a custom press tool.

Coated with a food safe clear coat finished the project.

Barge Ramps

A joint Project with Marc Ruggeri.

I made a full 3D CAD model of the ramps and made a set of dimensioned drawings as well as the Bill of materials/ cut list. Marc was critical in the information for the strength of material and design recommendations.

From Design to Fabrication to Install I felt I had a large hand in this project and it allowed a fellow small business to expand their capabilities to Lake Jocassee.

Designed to support a Loaded Tandem Axel Dump Truck.

Personal Dump Trailer Project

Taking an older boat trailer I added a deck and extended the frame to a 4'x8' utility trailer with full sheet metal sides. Strengthening the frame and moving the attachment of the tongue to allow a dumping action. Using scrap material this project did not take much input to return a very usable trailer.

I also fabricated the D-rings on the sides. Planned for the future is a folding gate and a front mounted toolbox.

Stainless Steel Waste Blender Repair

This is a mount for a 20 HP motor that runs an effluent pump for a waste water treatment facility. The vibration of the motor impellor rubbing against the housing caused a major breakage among other stress fractures. All fractures were completely welded with full penetration. Back Purging and other methods were used to prevent Sugaring of the stainless and preserve it's anti-corrosion properties.
