16 gauge is 0.0598" in steel, 0.0625" in stainless and 0.0508" in aluminum.

Same number, three thicknesses. Gauge is a legacy numbering system, not a unit, and each material uses its own scale. A drawing that says "16 GA" without the material leaves someone downstream to guess.

The fix is one line: give the decimal thickness and the material next to the gauge. Our new gauge chart covers steel, stainless and aluminum from 10 to 24 gauge, and what thickness changes about forming, tooling wear and cost.

Six services, one building in Broomfield.

Metal stamping. Fiber laser cutting. CNC turret punching. Hard tooling. Precision engineering and design. Sheet metal fabrication. Alongside them, PEM hardware insertion, tapping and countersinking.

The list is deliberately short. Welding, plating and coating go to specialists, and we will tell you that before you commit rather than after.

What we own instead is the tooling. We design and build our dies here.

A homeowner named Bret sent us nine DXF files for guards that keep animals out from under his solar array.

We fiber laser cut one of each in 18 gauge 304 stainless so he could test fit them on the real panels. Three parts needed a small change: one hole moved, and two parts gained a new center hole. He marked the revised files "NEW" and put the production quantity in every file name, so nobody had to guess. Then we cut about 100 production parts.

His verdict: "They are working out perfectly."

The shop, on an ordinary day.

No campaign, no announcement. Just the people who make the parts, doing it.

Two numbers decide whether your part can be formed at all.

Minimum bend radius: bend it tighter than the material tolerates and the outside surface cracks. It varies by material and temper, so softer alloys take a tighter radius and higher strength ones need more.

Minimum fl**ge: a fl**ge too short cannot be gripped by the tooling, so it cannot be formed accurately.

Both interact with grain direction and with how close the next feature sits. Ask before the print is released.

What to send when you request a quote.

A drawing or CAD file, ideally a STEP file plus a PDF with dimensions. Annual quantity, and how you expect to order it. Material and temper, if that is already fixed. Any finish requirements. And critically, which dimensions actually matter, marked on the print.

That last one changes the quote more than anything else on the list. When every dimension carries the same tolerance, a shop has to hold all of them. Tell us which three matter and the part gets easier to make.

Stamping or punching? It depends on what the feature is, not on what the part is.

Flat profiles and holes are one question. Formed features, louvers, ribs and countersinks are a different one, and the answer changes with volume.

We run both processes, so we have no stake in the answer. New post breaks down which one should form your part's features.

That louver was formed in the same cycle that cut the part.

No second operation, no second setup, no part getting handled twice.

This is the thing a turret punch does that a laser cannot do at all.

We are in Broomfield, which puts us inside a morning's drive of most of the Front Range.

Denver, Boulder, Longmont, Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Arvada, Westminster, Thornton, Lakewood, Aurora, Centennial, Castle Rock, Commerce City, Colorado Springs and Pueblo.

Distance matters more than people expect on custom metal parts. Not because of freight cost, but because you can stand at the press and look at your own part with the people running it. Problems that take three emails to describe take about four minutes in person.
