Fabrication-Related Testimonials

I’ve audited shops all across the U.S., and I would consider Baker to be one of the top four shops in the country. It is very rare for a company to pass our fabrication audit on the first try, so I was impressed when Baker not only passed but exceeded our expectations. Their team is well-organized, and their fabrication job traveler is one of the best I’ve seen.

Aerospace OEM Auditor

In my 27+ years of being associated with Tooling Work Transfer, this tool is one of the nicest Core Form and Trim tools we have ever received from a supplier. The facesheet forming, welding, machining, benching, and ID look great. You also delivered the tool ahead of scedule.
