Custom Metal Work in San Jose, CA
Why San Jose Chooses Keeble Metal Works
The difference is detail. We plan parting lines, gating, and shrink allowances; we control heat input during welding; we chase and finish surfaces that honor the original form. You’ll get clear timelines, dependable communication, and a finish that looks great in tech campuses, galleries, public spaces, and private collections.

Mold Making (Silicone & Rigid)
We design clean-pull molds that preserve crisp detail. Multi-part molds with registration keys and vents reduce flashing and protect fragile originals.
Wax Work & Chasing
Seams are chased, edges rebuilt, and gates/vents placed for directional solidification. High-quality wax reduces metal cleanup and preserves the artist’s intent.
Casting & Breakout
Controlled burnout and pour temperatures produce strong, clean castings. After breakout, we de-gate and chase the surface to remove witness marks and restore texture.
