Meet the Maker

Hi im Mando, (government name Gordon)
Im a 33 (nearly 34) fabricator and welder (dabbler in blacksmithery) based in Suffolk.

For the last 18 years ive been a welder with the last 5 years taking my wares around the country to all the fantastic shows!

In my spare time (dont laugh, I get some occasionally!) I like to play Dnd and spend time with my wife and children!
This year we have been very busy with shows and commission pieces, working with some local clients and others all over the country make many wondrous items to show you all!

Our Calendar is already filling up for 2026 which is really exciting and will be released soon!

The items and builds I undertake can range anywhere between home and Garden to Fantasy and outright strange and impractical!
We've got an established website where you can browse all of our wares and are generally open for commissions too!

Thank you for taking the time to read and thank you for following my journey!
