I have used Wolf Machine several times over the past few years for fabricating and repair of parts on my ultralight aircraft. [...] These guys are great to deal with. I wouldn't take my projects anywhere else.
A construction-heavy ZIP code
With four times as many construction establishments as manufacturers, the work in Dayton's ZIP code leans to building: frames, brackets, fixtures and replacement parts that need welding, fabrication or machining. Worn hydraulic cylinders and shafts can be repaired, or a new part machined. Lyon County as a whole had 129 construction establishments in the 2023 County Business Patterns.
Parts for the Dayton shop and yard
Beyond repair, we make parts from your specifications, drawings or samples. A worn bracket, a pin or a bushing can be copied and made new. See parts made from samples and custom machining.

Repair on the equipment's own ground
Millwright and field work and portable align boring are done at your site. Distance and access decide how a job is planned, so send the location and photos first.
