About the shop

Elite Fab Design is Jason Walker's shop. He's been running it for five years, on a trade his dad taught him when he was a kid.

Jason has always been good at looking at something, working out how it was made and how it works, and figuring out how to fix it. That's most of the job in a fab shop: somebody brings in a part that broke, or an idea that doesn't exist yet, and it has to come out right the first time.

The shop sits at 405 E Marion Street in Waterloo, Indiana. Most work stays in northern Indiana, but Jason will travel anywhere for on-site welding and delivery.

We are honest and take pride in what we do. Jason Walker, owner
Inside the shop: forklift, the CNC plasma table and a set of primed steel stands.
