How We Make Chimney Caps

Up to June 2016, for 20 years we have made each part by hand cutting the patterns and for the long cuts we used a big electric shear.

Starting June 2016 we will begin to use a CNC plasma cutter to manufacturer all the parts of the chimney cap patterns. This is important because now we have the ability to fabricate a chimney cap base from one pattern the the screening now being cut into one pattern.
