Douglas County had 76 manufacturing establishments and 11 machine shops in the 2023 County Business Patterns, and the two valley ZIP codes hold 10 of those shops.
Two ZIP codes, two profiles

Gardnerville's held 13 manufacturers, 73 construction establishments, 8 fabricated metal product makers and 5 machine shops. The American Community Survey counts 105 employed Minden residents and 216 employed Gardnerville residents in manufacturing; people also commute in from other places, so workers and residents are different counts.
Large round work and housings
For large round work, our lathes turn parts to 96 inch OD, and we bore and mill housings. See large diameter turning for what that covers.
Valley construction and trades
The valley's 138 construction establishments are a market for metal fabrication and welding, and Douglas County had 233 construction establishments overall. The Census figures show the volume of equipment around, not who owns it.

Millwright and field work and portable align boring are done at your site. Call with the location and photos of the machine.
