Custom Design & Fabrication — South Carolina
Stillwater Forge Built With Intention. Made To Last.
Custom design, fabrication, prototyping, and small-production work for businesses and individuals who need something better than off-the-shelf.
Bring Us The Problem
If it doesn’t exist, we’ll design it.
Show us what wastes time, breaks too often, doesn’t fit, or simply doesn’t exist yet.
A problem. A rough sketch. An existing part. A set of measurements. A workflow that’s never quite worked right. A product idea that’s only half-formed. That’s enough to start a conversation — we take it from concept through CAD, prototyping, testing, fabrication, and short-run production if you need more than one.
Tell Us What You Need
What We Build
Capability grouped around how work actually gets solved.
Custom Design & Fabrication
CAD, prototypes, functional components, and mixed-material fabrication built around your actual use case.
Jigs, Fixtures & Business Solutions
Purpose-built tools and workflow improvements designed around a real process, not a catalog part.
EVA Marine Flooring Engraving
Precision laser engraving on customer-supplied EVA marine flooring. Returned ready to install, or installed for you.
Signs & Commemorative Work
Business, property, memorial, estate, farm, camp, and custom signage in wood, slate, acrylic, and layered materials.
Batch & Corporate Work
Repeatable small-production runs — branded products, gifts, displays, and awards — not just one-offs.
Premium Custom Work
Heirloom-quality organizers, displays, presentation pieces, and special commissions built to last.
How It Works
From idea to finished production.
Bring Us the Problem
Tell us what you need, what isn’t working, or what you want built.
Design
Requirements become measurements, materials, CAD, and a fabrication plan.
Prototype
When appropriate, a first version is produced and test-fitted.
Refine
Fit, usability, tolerances, appearance, and manufacturability are improved.
Build
The final piece or production batch is manufactured and finished.
Selected Work
Problem. Design. Solution.
Engraved EVA deck, Edge duck boat
Customer-supplied EVA engraved panel by panel into one layout from bow to stern.
Research vial storage for CGB Research
Bench storage modeled around measured vial sizes, with the company name printed in.
Memorial plaque
A dignified, permanent tribute. Clean lettering, nothing that did not need to be there.
Why Stillwater Forge
Designed around the job. Not pulled off a shelf.
CAD-driven, not guesswork
Every project is modeled and measured before it’s built — Fusion 360, SolidWorks, and AutoCAD.
Prototyped when it matters
Fit and function get tested before a final piece or a production batch is committed to.
Built for durability
Materials and methods are chosen for the long haul, not the lowest cost per unit.
One-off or repeatable batch
A single part or a short production run — the process scales without losing attention to fit and finish.
Direct communication
You talk directly with the person designing and building the work — no account layers in between.
Mixed-material capability
Wood, slate, and printed parts combined in a single piece when the job calls for it.
Have something that should exist?
Whether it’s a production fixture, a custom sign, a replacement component, a business display, or an idea you haven’t found anywhere else — show us what you’re trying to accomplish.
