Our 5' x 10' CNC router is capable of cutting wood, non-ferrous metals, foam, acrylic, and much more. It has a cut depth of 10" and has 3D capabilities. We also have the design skills and software to prep files and prepare tool-paths. Email: info@haskettworks.com for a quote on your next CNC project.
We approach all of our projects with a “nothing is impossible” mentality and more often than not we find a creative solution within a realistic budget and timeframe. Whether it's a one-off piece of custom furniture, or an entire scenic environment, we know the people to call and strategies to engage to bring your design and fabrication projects to life.
Most projects begin with a digital design and consultation phase, using illustration, presentation, and drafting programs to offer a fully-rendered, to-scale 3D model. We aim to make clean and clear models that help facilitate good communication while also serving as attractive presentation materials for your team and your clients to enjoy. The last thing anyone wants is an expensive surprise, that is why we do all our problem solving in a digital space, where "ctrl-Z" is free every time.
We use these renderings to make detailed building plans for our team of carpenters, welders and scenic artists to do what they do best. We always encourage our clients to schedule a visit during production to see their project in progress and to have an opportunity to make any adjustments or suggestions before things are settled.
Finally we make sure everything gets where it's going safe and sound. Whether that means custom crating with detailed unpacking and assembly instructions, or our team of professional installers doing full service delivery with on the spot modifications and assembly. We'll always do everything in our power to make our clients satisfied with their decision to make Haskett Works their partner for their design and fabrication projects.

Carpenter
A very serious man.
A part of what makes Haskett Works a unique business is the field of talent all around us at Pelington Village; a community and close-knit collection of tradespeople, artists, craftspeople, and small-business owners working across a variety of industrial disciplines, out of a former recycling plant overlooking Lake Union. This one-of-a-kind space was built over decades using reclaimed and recycled materials, like municipal doors, trailer walls, filing cabinets, and street signs. With a shared passion for creating and making, the villagers work both independently on their own projects and collaboratively when the situation arises. It is this combined multidisciplinary talent and entrepreneurial spirit that enables us to tackle all manner of projects big and small.
