Today we’d like to introduce you to Brandon Fischer.
Brandon, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
Started MettleWork Designs in 2017 out of a 600sqft garage with a $700 Tig welder and a table I built from pallets. We’re now working out of 4,000 sqft as of last year & housing about 15 tons of machinery – CNC Plasma, Milling Machine, Lathes, Forge & Anvil Etc. Truly ALL THINGS METALWORK. Enjoy it all. Public artwork is a space we would like to explore in the future.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
What a roller coaster ride! I’ve worked numerous jobs in the welding industry, but always knew I wanted to pursue my own path. 2018 I quit my last “real” job to pursue this & haven’t looked back. No Investor’s, No Business Degree, just a Passion for building something from nothing & trying to have fun with it along the way.
Let’s just say it hasn’t been a “cakewalk” as some factory workers would say lol
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
MettleWork’s slogan is Custom/Creative/Fabrication & that’s exactly what we specialize in. Lots of custom Railings, Staircases & Entryway Gates Etc. We work with numerous Architects & Design Builds.
Most proud of the company itself and continually expanding our capabilities. As for setting us apart, I’d say a huge factor is being able to blend real fabrication skills with an artist’s understanding for aesthetic & design. Also staying creative & flexible.
What quality or characteristic do you feel is most important to your success?
Understanding Multiple Fabrication Methods & Staying Artistic
