Metalworking

For metalworking you can come to our Paul Krugerstraat location. For small jobs you can often drop in (when the welcome sign is on). We keep things clear and safe: sparks, noise, and heavier work are always coordinated briefly so it fits the staffing and the space.

Metalworking here is meant for small-scale projects, repairs, and making or adapting parts. No production runs and no large-scale manufacturing.

Machines and setups

For basic operations we have, among other things:

  • a pillar drill for accurate drilling;
  • a metal bandsaw;
  • a manual milling machine;
  • a small metal lathe.

Please note: due to building works, the milling machine and the metal lathe are currently not set up. Drilling, cutting, grinding and smaller hand work are still possible.

Grinding, cutting and hand tools

For cutting, grinding and finishing we have, among other things:

  • various (cordless) angle grinders;
  • a cordless straight grinder with a Roloc system;
  • cordless drills;
  • a cordless shear;
  • bench hammers, sheet-metal hammers and a planishing hammer;
  • files and hacksaws.

This is ideal for adjusting brackets, plates, profiles and parts, deburring, fitting, and preparing work for welding.

Welding

Welding is also possible, but it is a separate discipline here and always something to coordinate in advance. See Welding.

Drop-in or by appointment?

For small jobs you can often drop in at Paul Krugerstraat. For work that produces a lot of sparks, takes longer, or where you want to be sure the right setup is available, it is best to call ahead or make an appointment.

If possible, bring:

Working safely and calmly

Metalworking requires protection and attention (sparks, sharp edges, noise). That is why we always coordinate heavier work briefly. When in doubt, we choose the safe option, or plan a moment when it fits well in the workshop.

Welding

Metalworking and welding often go together. See what is possible and what we do together/under guidance.

Make an appointment

For larger jobs, spark-producing work, or if you want to be sure a setup is available. Coordinate in advance.
