Mr. Gary opened on a Saturday of a holiday weekend to make an urgent repair to a piece of equipment for our son’s bike so it would be ready for use in a national competition. So patient and helpful in trying different repairs until the job was done. Thank you Mr. Gary!

I went to Waddell Machine Shop for a small specialty job. They were very helpful and took care of it right away. I could tell that I was working with people who had years of experience and really knew what they were doing. Beyond that, it was clear they were the kind of people who want to help others and do excellent work. The shop is deceptively large with a wide variety of machinery. I highly recommend this shop and will definitely go to them again when I need some work done.

Went to Waddell's shop for a specialty job modifying a piece of equipment I had. The shop is at the end of the drive in the garage and it looks like the owner probably also lives on-site. He worked through the problem and we figured out a solution that was easier than I initially expected us to have to do, was extremely low impact on my equipment, and ultimately was exactly what I needed done. I was very pleased with how he approached the problem and feel like that probably carries through to all of his work. This shop knows what they're doing and has a deceptively large amount of equipment at their disposal to accomplish a vast multitude of tasks. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone with machining needs. Specific prices are irrelevant because every job is different but I can say that he has extremely fair pricing.
