A similar thread in Nor Cal section has been active for awhile.

I own and operate a small corporation that produces precast concrete items such as concrete pipe supports, splash blocks, concrete vault covers and other small concrete boxes for the underground industry. I also do custom steel fabracation of covers for vaults. My last cover was for a 8'x10' clear opening that you can drive fire trucks across or other big rigs that shipped into the City of Napa California. It can be lifted off to gain full access to a very large electrical transformer. I also manufacture many different steel items for various industries.

I have built my own camber brace that easily bolts in and out (less than 3 minutes to remove or install), "test pipe" and exhaust from cat back. And just playing around made several "branding irons" like this one (M M H) for a friends grandchildren.

For the last 25 years I did upholstery on collector cars, mainly pre World War II cars, with most of those being Packards. Now I am working on the restoration of our 1931 Cadillac Town Sedan.
