01 · ABOUT THIS PROJECT

Built by

Mel Sarrasin

I fit, fabricated, and welded custom safety railings, platform framing, and stair stringers for an industrial facility installation. Accurate layout and jig creation were crucial for aligning the platform framing and stair connections. Working from precise cuts and miters, I handled the fit-up and welding of the pipe railings on the shop table before final finishing. With teamwork to flip and maneuver the awkward fabricated assemblies, the finished platform and safety rails installed seamlessly.

And it all fits! Site guys can't be successful if the shop team doesn't perform.

THANKS!! I didn't do installation but I was sent these pics. Most of what I've created I've never seen what the installed product looks like so when I get pictures it's exciting. I posted the other projects I worked on and have pictures of.
