These photographs from Fab Metal Shop’s archive show machined fixtures, waterjet-cut profiles and custom architectural details. Explore the work, then tell the Long Beach shop what your project needs.
A machined fixture with recessed features and bolted clamps. Fixtures are used to locate, support or hold a component while other work is carried out.
Include the part the fixture will hold, the locating surfaces and the dimensions that need to repeat. A drawing or sample helps the shop review the workholding approach.
An archive view of the waterjet cutting process. Profile cutting creates the outline of a flat part, which may be a finished component or the starting point for further shop work.
Send the profile drawing, material, stock thickness and quantity. Flag any holes, mating edges or features that need machining after cutting.
Curved stone profiles come together in this decorative floor inlay. The photograph shows how individual cut shapes contribute to a larger architectural layout.
Bring the layout, stone type, thickness and overall dimensions. Identify who is supplying the material and handling installation so the cutting scope is clear.
Address numerals cut into a metal panel for a made-to-order architectural detail. Letter shape, spacing and the surrounding metal all contribute to the finished design.
Share the artwork, overall size, material and intended mounting method. Include any finish requirements and whether the panel will be used indoors or outdoors.
