A selection of commissions and builds from the Talon Works studio — from corporate scale models to custom fabricated parts.
A detailed scale model of the Bombardier Challenger 300 business jet, produced as a corporate display piece for an aviation client — a single project combining nearly every capability in the studio. The airframe was FDM 3D printed and hand-finished with progressive wet sanding to a paint-ready surface, mounted on a CNC machined walnut display base with a polished steel mount, and delivered in a bespoke presentation box with burgundy felt lining and brushed steel hardware.
A machine tiller cam produced for a sailboat tiller system — a functional, load-bearing replacement component. The part was first 3D printed as a prototype to validate fit and function on the boat, then CNC machined in durable material for the final working part. A complete prototype-to-production workflow that restored the tiller mechanism at a fraction of the cost and lead time of sourcing the original.
A full rebuild and performance upgrade of a client's 3D printer — overhauled motion system, upgraded electronics, and retuned firmware. The result: double the original print speeds with cleaner, more consistent output. A complete transformation of an underperforming machine into a reliable production tool.
Custom laser cut trophies produced for a school sports team on an extremely tight deadline — designed, cut, assembled, and delivered within 24 hours. A great example of what in-house production makes possible when the clock is against you.
A batch of replacement car door handle mounts — a part that commonly fails and is often discontinued or expensive to source through dealers. Reverse engineered from the original, redesigned for added strength at the known failure points, and produced as a small batch run in durable engineering material.
