Machine Shop
The metal shop at Lowell makes is a general fab shop not limited to only metal, includes fields such as machining, welding, and general metal fab. The shop is looking to expand into forging, blacksmithing and metal casting. We have a large range of tooling ranging from a CNC vertical mill to a English wheel. We have full size knee mill and engine lathe, as well as a MIG and AC/DC TIG welder.
