Fabrication
A craftsman’s eye for detail is no small thing. Our team is seasoned and they have come up through the ranks. They’ve learned from their seniors and they pass on to their juniors. It’s really quite something to witness over the years. We’re a family at C&O – in many cases, literally. We have no robots at any of our 14 welding stations. Real, highly-skilled craftsmen with real and extensive experience and wisdom forge raw steel into complex and finely detailed parts.
Hey – we were two guys in a cramped storage-like facility with just the bare necessities – shivering in the pre-dawn hours in February and sizzling in the stifling California Augusts. But we had a vision. We worked 16-hour days and made sure everything we crafted was perfect. We grew through “word-of-mouth” and reputation. We’ve never advertised our services. Eventually, we were able to hire one, then two welders to free us up for more consultation and design time. We taught those welders everything we knew, and they became highly-skilled craftsmen. And when we hired more people, the four of us taught them. And that method continues today – literally, today.
We’re not going to bore you with a list of equipment with names and functions you won’t understand. Suffice to say we have this:
AND…. Every other machine necessary to make us the premier metal, laser and display fabricator. We create using all kinds of metals – carbon steel, iron, aluminum, stainless, alloy steel….we can cut it, bend it, twist it, form it, weld it, and fit it with other parts. We can texture it, hammer it, cut shapes out of it, mill it, drill it, grain it, polish it, and give it a clear or any-color finish for indoor or out. If you want it to shine we can chrome it. You get the picture. For 25 years we’ve been doing this…. There is no replacement for experience.

We’re passionate about creating a display that effectively represents your business. After all, attractive and effective displays generate sales and turn shoppers into buyers. Countertop displays; floor displays; trade show and event componentry – we have been creating all of these for a long time.
